Takes one to know one I guess.
Here comes the mud. Sling it all out there and see if any of it sticks.
Why wasn’t it considered corruption when Abramoff gave money to Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi?
Exactly.
And I wonder how Abramoff’s pal Grover Norquist has managed to avoid getting busted.
Can’t believe the MSM is attacking Newt, who according to FR is a well known RINO..sarc/off.
Romney is their guy!
They'll keep doing to to any front runner - like dominoes - until Romney is the last guy standing.
What do you give the MSM, 2 weeks, maybe 3? Before they have Newt ripped to shreds and down 20 points in the polls.
Until now he hasn’t been a serious enough contender to be a target but just wait...
Exactly.
Yeah, exactly right. It’s not like JA is saying that he’s good, just that they’re both bad.
If it’s so easy to cover a candidate with blood, why not do it?
He’ll start getting hit by the other candidates. Can’t “punch down” you know.
She'd already had been “vetted” to the extreme and was still standing. The MSM was out of ammo.
All she had to do was talk coherently about conservative principles and she'd be on top.
Abramoff is now part of the MSM? I don't know why anyone would be shocked or surprised, Newt has been cashing in on his "Mr. Speaker" title ever since he quit, which, BTW, was because he was going to be ejected as the speaker.
What Abramoff does not explain is that people like Newt Gingrich have that unique ability to get things done in Washington D.C. That ability is the result of years of work with an aptitude that is the best there is. What Abramoff forgets is that $1million that Freddie Mac paid Newt is a reflection of what he is worth. It shows the high value that people who know Newt have for him. It is another indication to the voter of the quality Newt will be as President.
Corruption? How is this corruption if Newt isn’t even holding political office?
You want corruption? Corruption is this fascist Obama administration paying off the unions and Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac with outrageous bonuses of taxpayer money.
Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and Grover Norquist are not running for President.
So, attacking Newt will get more publicity for Abramoff’s book.
Good point.
