"STFU Newt. You had your chance and you blew it. You don't walk your talk. We found that out."

Funny, his "Contract with America(1)" was the best thing to happen to the Republican party in the last 20 years.

Funny, immigration was no concern for Newt then either.

He's really wound up with the open border people, Norquist, for example.

In the words of former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, Grover Norquist is “the person who I regard as the most innovative, creative, courageous and entrepreneurial leader of the anti-tax efforts and of conservative grassroots activism in America . . . He has truly made a difference and truly changed American history.”

Grover Norquist: 'Field Marshal' of the Bush Plan

Norquist gained notoriety as former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich's right hand in the mid-1990s--helping to design the 1994 Contract With America and rallying the right's grassroots to go to the polls that year, a drive he chronicled in his book Rock the House. When Newt crashed and burned, Norquist survived to become an ally of Gingrich successors, including Tom DeLay, the House majority whip, and Dick Armey, the majority leader. And since late 1998 Norquist has been George W. Bush's unofficial liaison to so-called movement conservatives.
