Newts have the ability to regenerate limbs, eyes, spinal cords, hearts, intestines, upper and lower jaws, and political careers.
ROFLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here 's this sunday's Media Nuggets
###### Ratherism lives in CBS! -> CBS calls the President a liar. President Bush said that we are fighting al Qaeda in Iraq in January; he has said it more than 40 times since. There was no contradiction. CBS was wrong. CBS has deliberately chosen to mislead and misinform its viewers on the most vital issue of our time.
###### Nepotism, Tim Russert, and the Little Luke Russert.
###### Funny AP dictionary! -> When National Legal and Policy Center goes after a dem, it is "a conservative group" & if it goes after a Republican, it is "a government and ethics watchdog group."
###### MSM - Learn from BBC! -> BBC to teach its staffers honesty, all 16,000 of them are going to be sent to re-education camps.
###### AP Out-APs the AP AP analysis trips through looking glass.
###### NYTimes & Ann Coulter! NYTimes' top editor used a homophobic slur, the same for which Coulter was attacked, last month during it's well-lubricated office party. NYTimes launched an investigation.
###### Star-News Reporter Charged with DWI while he was investigating the drunken driving issues. N I C E.
###### Journalists Gone Wild along with Judiciary Committee Members and their dim-wittedness is exposed.
###### NYTimes is worried that President Bush talks about Faith in God while videoconferencing with Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki.
###### Suicide Watch! Washington Post Radio. Poor posties, they thought people would tune-in in droves to hear their daily Bush-smear. Turned-out, people not only rejected their Radio, their Paper-circulation also fell down from 4th place to 7nth.
###### Dump Watch! -> NBC from General Electric. GE looking for opportune time to dump prblematic NBC, says NBC's lead advertiser - NYTimes.
###### Rest in Peace! -> Vibe Vixen, the female counterpart to urban music and lifestyle magazine Vibe & Teen Vogue.
###### Tribune 2Q Earnings Fall ->59 Percent (Tribune is the parent company of the Chicago Tribune, LA Times).
B U Z Z .....

I buy everything except for that last bit.
Ain't gonna happen, except perhaps as a cabinet officer.
However, he might make one helluva Secretary of Transportation, Education or HHS in a Fred Thompson administration. Newt has laid out some excellent and very practical (IMHO) suggestions for things like really modernizing the air traffice control system (he wants to "at least bring it into the second half of the twentieth century"). It's about time we turn somebody loose on things like that who is more than a chair warmer. Newt is definitely not a chair warmer. And everybody already hates him, so he's got nothing to lose.
I've got Rudy pegged for CIA in a Thompson administration and I'm tempted on McCain and defense, but he's got too many personal axes to grind for my comfort. I'm picking Romney as VP and having Fred turn over Al Gore's old "reinventing government" task to him. He would actually get something we'd all like accomplished with that charter.
I love Gedankenpolitiks.
