My mother and I have both recently run into quite a few people who hold an inaccurate understanding of this hospital visit. Many think my mother is dead.
So, to correct the record, here is what happened: My mother, Jackie Battley Gingrich, is very much alive, and often spends time with my family. I am lucky to have such a “Miracle Mom,” as,,,,,
JACKIE GINGRICH IS STILL ALIVE YOU IDIOT!!!!!
I believe Newt’s first wife is alive and well. This urban legend needs to be put to bed.
Pretty much sums it up
From the dumbass article:
*** Im sure if the Speakers initial esposa were still around shed have some choice words to share about this duplicitous dame. Alas, she is not.****
WRONG!!!!
This inaccuracy spoils an otherwise good article. Jackie Battley is very much alive.
You ladies are funny.
I’d love to shoot the msm in the brain, but unfortunately, even they can’t find it.
First, thanks for setting the record straight. Second, don’t Newt’s wives ever drop his last name? He must have some very special hold over women for them to want to carry his identity with them the rest of their lives. Both of my exes shed my last name so fast, you’d think it was “Obama.”
BTW, I found the piece hilarious. I think we have reached a point in this country where we need to stop cutting women slack in any category. Chivalry is dead — and it’s the American woman who savagely slaughtered it.
Great article! Thanks for posting.
Yes she is
I fully grasp that we're on the brink. My relief with the Mittens trouncing last night has not relieved, in any way, my conviction that we're lost without the firm principles of Judeo-Christian morality, the Constitution and the right people to carry them forward. I am equally convinced that Newt isn't suitable.
Pragmatism has been a political watchword for me for 35 years. I have dutifully pulled the lever, carried water and served the ‘R’ party wherever directed. GWB changed that for me after seven years of steadily compromising away all gains made by grassroots conservatives (citizen patriots) and expanding the magnitude of our problems. Debt load, education bill (Ted's actually - per GWB), the astronomical farm bill, TARP, the Iraq fiasco (duh, Iran was/is the problem). I could go on...
A decade earlier, Newt made his headlines on the backs of groundswell conservatism, not the other way around. If you'll recall, this nation was experiencing a genuine grassroots political earthquake on the issues of socialized medical care, abortion and radical gun control. Average people got up on their hind legs and started doing something. When that freshman class got to DC, the establishment promptly shuffled them into safe obscurity. There was never any heroic confection served by the Dole/Newt team that inspired the masses - they were simply looking to find a leader that mirrored their ideals.
I'm simply done with electing the devil I know.
The time will come when words and principle will matter. Our system is drenched with whores willing to say and do anything to get and retain power. Trusting the nation to compromising careerists has taken us to this point as surely as pulling the lever for Obama because, in the end, it is only the principles that matter.
Flame away - I couldn't care less.
My $0.02.
“I’m simply done with electing the devil I know.”
So you’re done with voting until Jesus is on the ballot? Here’s a clue, he’s never been on the ballot.
Even the Great Reagan was divorced. Quit your bitchin and do your duty and vote.
Here’s another clue, words and principle have always mattered.
sodpoodle is Newt your dad?
I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH YOU
So you agree that quitting is the answer?
I agree that moral character is important drift diver. I am so tired of flawed and fallen people that regard the Bible as passe.
EXCELLENT POST
Naughty or nice, Newt is the man!
So don’t start trying
There is no denying.
Obama beware
There’s a man over there
Who has your number in spades
And is going to end your charades
Don’t say we didn’t warn ya
Just scoot back to Kenya that born ya
To your Marxist hell
We don’t wish you well
Tar and feathers are too good for you
These days we do it with Krazy glue
Your Marxist schemes were beyond the pale
Return... and we’ll ride you out on a rail
Get out of America and don’t dare come back
Go live in the 3rd world where you’ll find all you lack
