Romney Calls on Gingrich to Return Freddie Mac Money

Asked this morning if Newt Gingrich “should give that [Freddie Mac] money back,” on Fox and Friends, Mitt Romney said he thought Gingrich should.

“I sure do,” Romney responded. “He was on a debate saying that politicians who took money from Freddie and Fannie should go to jail, which is outrageous in itself. But, look, he says he was in the consulting business. That’s very different than the consulting business other people have been in. He was in the business of connecting folks with government. He was on K street. … It’s very different than the private sector.”

Romney appears to be referring to these remarks Gingrich made in the October Bloomberg/Washington Post debate:

Unlike Romney, the Speaker is NOT a dog abuser.

“I can’t believe freepers are cheerleading for a weasel like newt.”

Are you cheerleading for Romney or Obama?

Romney: "Thank me for my faithful, blind, devoted RomneyBOTs TBBT and mamelukesabre
who keeps working FOR ME, FOR ME, FOR ME, ---for ME,
ignoring my fake endorsements,
my fake troopers,
sporting fake badges, ‘illegal’ security tactics, bizarre staffers,
hatred of the military, release of unrepentant murderers, receipt of AIG Contributions in 2008 ,
my imposition of gay marriage by usurping the Mass. Constitution,
my infliction of socialized medicine without a vote to impose European "healthcare" (except for me),
my abuse of Seamus violating Massachusetts's animal cruelty laws,
most say were uncalled for
for making me a presidential candidate of distinction in many ways leading to
TIME's 200 comments from readers complaining of animal cruelty
which did unfairly expose me,
like the Globe about my Belmont illegal alien sanctuary,
and that so many in my team were secretly criticizing and attacking Gov. Palin
and the other GOP candidates who otherwise might have won."

” Gingrich will destroy Obama in the Debates.”

He certainly seems to be the adult in that catagory.

But you are not at all disappointed in allowing and helping Romney win, which will guarantee another 4 years for Obama.

And if Romney does win, (Which is highly unlikely) Romney will be perfectly glad to get Obama Care part 2 installed to appease his more Liberal leanings and voters.

Newt has made a promise which he has proven in the past to be good.

But go ahead, keep on doing the work for the Left that they cannot. You should be ashamed to call yourself a conservative when you help the Left do their dirty work and don't even care about the outcome.

It must be desperation. I can only think people are fleeing the other candidates to prevent Romney winning the primary by default. Nobody wants a repeat of McCain.

Most of these same lemmings were lining up behind Romney to stop McCain.

Now they're lining up behind Newt to stop Romney.

Whole lot of spineless weasels in the GOP.
