nothing against Mrs. Gingrich but...I think her hairdo should be more relaxed and casual.. it’s OK for a hair to be out of place. Doesn’t look good when it is not moving. Also the color...could tone it down somewhat.

Just wait till she gets sick from something... He left the first one when she was recovering from uterine cancer, and left the second one right after she had been diagnosed with MS. According to the women he had his next wife already lined up and proposed to the “other woman” BEFORE breaking up with his wives.

The guy is a scumbag, IMHO.

I still can’t believe people are so ready to believe the unsubstantiated claims about Cain, but are willing to overlook the horribly damaging character flaws that exist in Mr. Gingrich.

Gee whiz — this almost makes me want to vote for Romney JUST to keep Calista from being First Lady.

DON’T WORRY — I’m not insane. I’m NOT voting for Romney. But I ain’t votin’ for Newt either — not in the primary, at least.

Every candidate claims they'll be the nominee. That's why they're running.

Calista looks creepy with the work she's obviously had. Newt certainly talks her and their projects up a lot.

But there are a world of ways to pay upfront without paying with cash.

One common way is to take out a credit card and pay it off when you get the bill.

You have company. And now his wife seems to be similarly afflicted.

I just KNOW all you intelligent, informed FREEPERS, Christians all, have taken at least a cursory look at who Callista is - but in case one of you haven’t, here just a few things that you haven’t, of course, heard on the MSM whose one reference to her is always the one bad photo.

CALLISTA:

“Callista graduated Cum Laude and earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Music with a concentration in Public Communication from Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. While at Luther College, she was a Pi Kappa Lambda Member and Regents Scholar...

A devoted Catholic, she is a member of the Choir of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C., a resident professional choir. In March of 2005, the Choir visited Rome,
...
Callista is the President of the Gingrich Foundation, a charitable nonprofit corporation. Among its charitable contributions, the Gingrich Foundation has established the Newt and Callista Gingrich Scholarship at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa which provides annual scholarships for instrumental music majors. Other grants have been awarded to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, Washington National Opera, Wolf Trap Foundation, City of Fairfax Band, Atlanta Ballet, Mount Vernon Ladies Association, Museum of the Rockies, American Museum of Natural History, Arthritis Foundation, Alzheimer’s Association, Learning Makes a Difference Foundation, Autism Society, Catholic Charities USA, American Heart Association, Girl Scouts of the USA, and the Trust for Public Land.

...Callista plays the French horn with the City of Fairfax Band in Fairfax, Virginia, promoting musical growth and education among area residents and students. The Band performs frequently in Fairfax, Virginia, and the Washington, D.C. area. The City of Fairfax Band is a recipient of the John Philip Sousa Foundation’s Sudler Silver Scroll Award. The Sudler Silver Scroll is regarded to be North America’s most prestigious award for community concert bands.
...
Prior to leading Gingrich Productions, Callista served as the Chief Clerk of the House Committee on Agriculture in Washington, D.C. During her tenure, the Agriculture Committee held hearings on a wide range of issues including biotechnology, bioterrorism, conservation, forest management, nutrition, rural development, trade, and welfare reform.

Before joining the House Committee on Agriculture, Callista served in the Office of Congressman Steve Gunderson (R-WI). With over eighteen years of staff experience in the United States House of Representatives, she has a wide range of knowledge in government and legislative affairs, strategic planning, research, and constituent services.

Playing along with the MainSlimeMedia - aren’t you just so clever.

Anyone here honest enough to give a sh*t, before you continue carrying water for the media - maybe you could a least look at my post #’s 113 and 114.

I realize, from all the posts in FR these many weeks, that none of y ou nave had the time or opportunity to give even a glancing look at information regarding Callista - other then the MSM viciousness which so many of you gleefully post - so just thought maybe you’d appreciate a bit of work done for you so’s maybe we can get past that cr*p...

Did she cheat with Newt while he was married to his other wife?

I’m amazed how some people will pass on Cain because of concerns that he cheated on his wife... At the very same time support Newt?

Well, she seems to have good taste in clothes :) but I don’t care for her eyes, or perhaps it’s her makeup. She looks hard.

I guess she hasn't been as lucky as all you freepers who keep, week after week, referring to and posting that one bad photo the MSM puts out.

You've never had a bad photo taken.

And you all seem to forget the MSM's favorite trick when it comes to Republicans - get and use the very worst photo you can.

I would hope we'd stop helping them with that.

Did you look at post #114?

Or is more fun to just keep carrying water for the media?

......”In the nineties, Mr. Nussle’s current wife was working for Mr. Gingrich; while Mr. Gingrich’s current wife was working for a committee which Mr. Nussle served on in the House of Representatives.

Furthermore, both men were married when they began affairs with each other’s staff members – all while Mr. Gingrich was leading the investigation into Bill Clinton’s extramarital affair with Monica Lewinsky. This is an unfortunate irony.

More importantly, it points to a willful disregard of personal behavior and you are forever linked to both of these candidates in a way that is unacceptable for many of us who demand Christian leadership.

Which brings us to our next concern.”....

I think there’s something weird about people in this situation having a $500,000 tab at Tiffany’s. I’m not against spending money, Lord knows, but what a strangely ostentatious thing to do under all the circumstances.

It's not a 'tab'. It's a LOC - Line of Credit - that Tiffany's put on his account.

My bank put a LOC on my account and then sent me a letter informing me...of course, in my bracket, it's only $500...LOL

But it's there in case I should go over my balance.

But, hey, it's much more fun to swallow the media spin as gospel - and then m iss the truth of it when it come out later. That's what the media and DemRats hope for. Wish so many of us didn't fall for it.

you people are getting tiresome - so beneath what FR is about - at least, USED to be

Used to be, FREEPERS did some independent research, instead of swallowing and carrying the media hype.
