It would help if he kept up with the news. The feds are taking a look at Obama's activity in this investigation.

He would like everyone to believe he's a conservative, but he's not. He's a RINO just like the rest of the CFR traitors in the GOP are. We can thank them for most of the American jobs that went overseas, and south of the border. I'm really glad he's out of politics. Let's hope he stays out!!

Another reason this guy cannot be our leader. It is so reminiscent of his global warming comments. Be nice. Get along. Don’t ruffle feathers.

For those who wanted Newt for RNC chair, take a real close look at Newt’s position on this. Not exactly hardball.

"In a time when America is facing real challenges, Republicans should be working to help the incoming President succeed in meeting them, regardless of his Party."

I don't have an incoming President. I am in occupied territory about to be overrun by a coup's treasonous horde, and Newt is a Vichy, *ss kissing traitor. F him and all "Republicans" that align with his methods and motivations.

Ah, there's the Newt I detest.....he just can't keep his ‘squishy middle’ idealogy silent.

The O passes their test because he's also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

Me? I'm a disgrunted, disillusioned conservative. We are basically a one-party system now, with only fringe differences. Frankly, I'm not any more scared of Obama than I am of the republicans. They're all hell bent on destroying this country.

Republicans should be working to expose the differences between their ideas of free markets and limited government from the incoming President so as to sooner succeed in rescuing the nation.

“Is there anyone on our side?”

Sure. Possibly as many as 10% of the electorate is to the right of Newt Gingrich.

After only one presser from Fitzgerald it’s a little early to start ruling things out isn’t it, Newt? Go back to work on your Glowbull Warming scam.

Sounds like Newt has joined the RINO circle jerk. Will he replace McCain as the pivot man?

It is time for Newt to retire from public life and get back to his favorite hobby of skirt-chasing.

Next week Newt will write some conservative sounding article, and there will be conservatives on FR who will be applauding the guy and advocating he run for President.

He is a New Ager and a political elite who did nothing with the GOP majority when he had a chance to lead.

“I can only assume that Newt wants to “do business” with folks in the new administration.”

Or maybe he has done business with Hot Rod?

How does a politician survive in Chicago without doing things the 'Chicago Way'?
