To Newt Gingrich haters (vanity)
Vanity | April 13, 2012 | CutePuppy

Posted on 04/14/2012 4:35:57 PM PDT by CutePuppy

He was rubbing it in everybody's face that an old coot like him could get somebody like her. No matter how God awful she looked.

This doesn't make any sense. If Callista really looked "God awful," how would it be that "he was rubbing it in everybody's face"? And do you suggest he should not have appeared with his wife at the political events but rather should have left her behind? And for which particular reason - being "God awful" or being "too young and too beautiful"?

I think your statement is, at the very least, subjective, projective, unworthy and, by accounts of most people who know and have met Callista, simply untrue and offensive.

Newt would bring the ever Lurking Calista with him and she was the cause of divorce # 2.

Are you really so blinded by hate that you have no compunctions about repeating and even magnifying the thoroughly disproved, debunked, refuted old lies sprung by the vile liberal media and propagated by the sclerotic GOP establishment?

If you really want to educate yourself on the facts, let's separate them from hateful fiction.

First, Callista is no more "Lurking" near her husband at the events than any other candidate's wife, be it Ann Romney or Karen Santorum.

Second, Newt met Callista for the first time and started dating her in 1993, 6 years after he was legally separated in 1987 from his estranged runaway wife #2, Marianne Ginther Gingrich (who chose to keep that name after the divorce) so Callista could not possibly have been the reason or cause for their separation and eventual divorce. Gingrich has been with Callista for more than 18 years, and happily married to her since 1999, after he resigned from Congress and finalized the bitter drawn-out divorce from Marianne, which she wouldn't grant him in 1994 when he was busy executing the Second Republican Revolution / Gingrich Revolution working to take over the Congress and pushing through the Congress and the vetoes the Contract With America. Callista, not Marianne, was with him through the trials and tribulations of that exciting and turbulent time, and 18 years together with her (more than 12 years in marriage) is much longer and happier than so many marriages are today. For the sake of the family Newt later converted to life-long faith of Callista, Catholicism.

Things happen in marriage, it doesn't always work out between two people, no matter how wonderful or horrible they might otherwise be. Rush Limbaugh is on his fourth marriage, to a much younger woman from a prominent Democratic family, he has no children, yet how many would question his conservative credentials, including being pro-life, pro-family and pro-marriage? Reagan was divorced and remarried when he became President, yet he's been one of the best pro-life and pro-family Presidents.

Newt has good relationship with his first wife Jackie (who wasn't dying from cancer and wasn't served divorce papers when she was in the hospital - another debunked liberal lie, picked up by Newt's detractors) and he and Callista have great relationship with his daughters and grandchildren. Instead of being bitter about this, we should be happy for them, just like we are for Karen Santorum who made her share of mistakes in her youth, but found a good path and good marriage.

Also notice that some of the most ardent supporters of Newt on FR are women. So much for the "gender gap" that many so-called "conservatives" keep warning us about Newt becoming a nominee... How is this "gender gap" working out for Mitt Romney so far in national polling? Never overestimate the "well-meaning warnings" as usually they are just a case of "reverse psychology" in action.

He was delusional to think he could get the evangelicals with that approach.

Also completely inaccurate.

In reality, the evangelical "leaders" have been very split about Newt and Rick, and then, as usual, chose poorly, in favor of "wear it on the sleeve" but poorly prepared, underfunded and unorganized candidate who had no chance to win but possibly get just enough support to either get "promoted" himself to VP slot or (if he becomes unviable as campaign unfolds) to push Romney to choose an evangelical "family values" candidate, à la Bush-Quayle ticket. Grassroots evangelical support can sometimes provide the margin of victory (slim, near miss Electoral College victories by George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004) but, in itself, is not enough to win national elections or elect a candidate that does not meet "GOPe Seal of Approval."

Bob Vander Plaats of Iowa, just like he did with Huckabee in 2008, endorsed Santorum, who was then polling at 2%, despite Newt providing Plaats' organization with $150K that were crucial to the successful ousting of three pro-gay-marriage Iowa Justices. And while Tony Perkins, Gary Bauer and James Dobson also endorsed Santorum, it took three rounds of voting to decide the "official endorsement" between Newt and Rick, with many other evangelical leaders either absent or openly individually endorsing Newt after this "consensus vote" at the Pressler Ranch near Houston, just before SC primary. Tim and Beverly LaHaye (Chair of Concerned Women of America), Jim Garlow, Don Wildmon and others also endorsed Newt, although they didn't actively campaign for him the way Dobson, Plaats, Perkins and Bauer did for Santorum.

From Gingrich: Christian Conservatives on My Side - RC, by Janie Lorber, 2012 January 17

Look where Dobson, Perkins, Plaats and Bauer are now - they are reduced to going hat in hand to Romney camp / GOPe who will most likely treat them like Clinton did Sister Souldja.

The unprecedented amount of money and extraordinary lies and ruined "conservative" reputations, that it took to assault Gingrich in Florida, by entire GOPe, when they / Romney were on the verge of losing to the only representative Tea Party conservative remaining there showed that GOPe wants Tea Party to occupy the same place within the GOP structure that the social / "family values" conservatives do now - a reliable vote by a "minority" that "has nowhere else to go" - basically the same exact role that the blacks, Jews, GLBT, "women" and other "minorities" represent for the establishment of the Democrat party. It was a fight for survival for GOPe, against a small(er) government, Reagan conservatives Tea Party movement.

If we don't unite behind Newt, the Tea Party will be just like evangelicals - a few minority "local" groups that are only paid a lip service by GOPe on the national level. That may be just fine with some evangelical "leaders" - just like the blacks got the "first black President" Bill Clinton and now the first African-American (literally, Kenyan-American) President, the evangelicals might get another "compassionate conservative" like Bush-43. Where does it leave the country and the rest of us?

Evangelicals have simply been used by the GOPe to split the Tea Party vote, by providing them a "true conservative" alternative in the form of Santorum. For instance, there was never an attempt to intimidate or negotiate a cut off of Foster Friess' SuperPAC funds that provided just enough of a lifeline for Santorum's campaign, unlike pulling all stops to get Sheldon Adelson stop donations to SuperPAC for Gingrich, or planting various false stories about the funds cut just before the states' primaries (thus diverting votes of supposedly "strategic" voters from Gingrich to Romney or Santorum).

(BTW, as an aside, the reason for Adelson not favoring Rick has nothing to do with his religious or social views - Vegas is a union town, casinos and restaurants there have had problems with several unions for decades, so the record of historically cozy relations of Santorum with unions is anathema to Vegas businessmen. There are large patches of prime real estate off the Strip in Vegas that have been for sale for a long time that nobody wants to buy and develop, but Adelson's Las Vegas Sands and Sands Cotai Central is opening another $5B casino in Macau, and plans to spend $35B over 9 years to build casinos and resorts in Spain, Macau and elsewhere in Asia - sales and profits are substantially higher per square foot overseas than in the unionized and overregulated U.S. / Vegas casinos).

Unfortunately, the entire Santorum's / evangelicals campaign plan was based entirely on trying to get Newt's votes and Newt out of the race, even though everybody understood that he would be crushed by Romney immediately after, one on one, even as Gingrich kept nearly publicly saying (to no avail for mathematically challenged) that he sees this as a fight to deny Romney most delegates rather than just "winning" the states while ceding delegates to Romney because Santorum didn't even have the required delegates in several states:

From Santorum, Paul look past Nevada caucuses - WPVI-TV, 2012 February 04

From Santorum refuses to bow despite another loss - WPVI-TV, 2012 February 05

Whoever thought that this may be a winning strategy against GOPe was nuts and had not learned the lessons of Huckabee 2008 run, when there wasn't even a fraction of money and the entire GOPe machine deployed against him like there was against Gingrich this year. Evangelicals played right into Romney / GOPe hands by insisting on "endorsing" and actively working for the "more perfect" single issue conservative as opposed to the supposedly "flawed" conservative.

To the delight of GOPe, it finally gave them an alternative to Newt - the race has turned from Anybody-But-Romney into Anybody-But-Gingrich. (Alinsky's rule #12 - "The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.")

"The best weapon against an enemy is another enemy" - Friedrich Nietzsche

All they had to do now was keep Santorum's campaign on "life support" and ignore Gingrich as if he didn't exist in the race, except for ratcheting up the pressure on Adelson to cut off the funds to SPAC and keeping to mock Gingrich within the media and only repeatedly asking him when he is going to drop out (Alinsky's Rule #13 - "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.") to shut down his message and antagonize the voters against him within the party, similar to what they've done to Newt ever since he became the Speaker and to Palin since she became a VP candidate.

Newt has always been pro-life, unlike Mitt Romney who has been [s]electively pro-choice or pro-life when it suited him politically, or even Rick Santorum who has been pro-choice earlier in his life, before he married and ran for Congress (apparently, some early mistakes in life but not the life circumstances of the others could be forgiven by some evangelical leaders).

Newt was also an adopted child, an Army brat, having to move from place to place often, not experiencing or knowing much about love in his youth, and marrying very young and having two children in his 19 years long first marriage, yet at that time he also accomplished getting Master and PhD degrees in history and becoming a college professor. Yet he never plays up his humble and difficult upbringing. In contrast, Rick Santorum's stump speech starts with his grandfather in the "Pennsylvania mining town" while he conveniently avoids mentioning that he was basically a child of relative privilege (his father was a chief of psychology department, mother a chief of nurses in the local Butler, PA, VA hospital) so getting him a good education (MBA and JD) was not such a burden for his family.

I am not trying to dump on Rick, who is a good family man, and whose family has seen their share of tragedy and disappointments. But many of the people who were voting for Santorum or Romney somehow allowed themselves to be taken in by lies about Newt and not question them, progressing to hating Newt with a passion. I am just trying to show that if, in their minds, Rick and his family are deserving of Christian or human forgiveness for their transgressions, then certainly, by all means, so does Newt and his family.

Nobody gave Newt anything in life, he had to work very hard for everything he achieved in life, and despite all the hardship, he has a record of conservative accomplishments that very few people can boast or even dream about, both in public life and post-public entrepreneurial life. That's why he is hated, envied and, just like Ronald Reagan, reviled by the lunatic left and the comfortable establishment right.

"If you have no enemies, you are not important enough to have made any" - Alexandre Dumas

"It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit" - Ronald Reagan

Hume is just another excuse for Newt in a long line of excuse's.

As far as the old and tired meme of "excuses" and "whining" by Gingrich goes, if you ask for and are given an explanation of certain facts, you can always label anything you don't like an "excuse" or "whine" to ignore and avoid dealing with the substance of an explanation. That, in itself, is a poor, childish excuse for attempting to "win" the argument the substance of which you are unable to refute but unwilling to accept.

Newt wrote a book called “Rediscovering God in America,” based on religion and our founding fathers. I haven’t read it but do intend to do so and he has produced some religious films via his production company.
Newt needs money, fair coverage and a few more debates with Romney. Will he get it? I doubt Romney will debate him again and I doubt Fox will be fair. WE have to be the ones to get the word out.

Chronology is fine. Newt wanted to get a quick divorce from Marianne in 1994, but she would not give him a divorce, seeing that he was on a track to becoming a Speaker, 3rd most important position in the government and realizing the income potential of being his "wife".

It wasn't a good time for Newt to have a "scandalous" long drawn-out divorce proceedings (which he should have finalized long before, but the "bad, mean Newt" was financially supporting her all through these years, regardless of separation, including having much of his income from books and lectures being in the bank accounts in her name). No good deed goes unpunished.

He found her a cushy job in D.C., they "reconciled" and she was basically a "political function wife" for events and appearances, until that time when he could get divorced from Marianne ("ex-wife-to-be") and get married to Callista ("wife-in-waiting"). During that period (c. 1995) she actually threatened him of "destroying his career with one interview" (great "wife" eh?)

Not the ideal situation, of course, but in the period of 1994-1998 he didn't have time for divorce, the situation that his long-estranged "wife" Marianne decided to exploit... When Newt said few years ago (after meeting with James Dobson) that he "made mistakes in his personal life because of his love for the country," he wasn't kidding. It cost him during the divorce, too, Marianne squeezed just about everything she could from that "marriage".

The "opportunity" to become finally free of gold-digging Marianne presented itself after 1998 elections, when everybody on the right and the left decided to blame him and his push for Clinton's impeachment for the loss of some House seats. He resigned from the House in 1999, filed and finalized the divorce from Marianne, moved to VA and married Callista.

Do click on the links I have in my original post, as well as well as the link to the blogger's article in my first post - they provide a lot clearer and more complete picture and details of the "political accommodation" of Marianne during that time period (no, it wasn't as she claimed, an "open marriage").

"""The sheep are lining up behind him as he leads us to the slaughter""""

Those sheeple are here tonight posting as if they WERE Santorum supporters, I seriously doubt that now, I suggest they were MITT ROMNEY BACKERS FROM THE BEGINNING.

To suggest anything else just does not make any sense, because from the start on FR, it was always ANYBODY BUT ROMNEY. Santorum dropped out and they turn to ROMNEY? LIARS all, and then say so many disparaging things about NEWT, what gall, ye hypocrites.

Something is just wrong with that picture, the Romney sheep have finally disclosed themselves as PURPLE WOLVES. They did their job well, but NEWT WILL NOT GO AWAY, rofl.

Hey to you Romney loving hypocrites, if NEWT is not going to win the nomination, why are you so concerned enough to keep posting TRASH about NEWT? Newt is still a threat, I see. Romney does not have this sewed up.

Marianne, after leaving Newt in 1987 and filing for divorce (but not proceeded with it), went back to Newt in 1994, after more than six years of separation, because he had become the Speaker of the House and she liked being in the spotlights. Newt, I don’t know why, accepted her back, but the marriage link was already irremediably broken ... Finally he filed for divorce in 1998, the divorce was finalized in 1999, and in 2000 he married Callista.

You’re probably right. Most of the Santorum’s supporters (except a few) are shilling now for Mitt - the “lesser” of two evils.

There is no lesser evil. It’s either evil or not. Such chutzpah. Reminds me of the criminal who murdered both his parents and asked for the jury leniency, because he’s an ... orphan.

The post #122 explains why - Marianne wouldn't give him a quick divorce and exploited his time demands (the Contract With America, welfare reform and balancing the budgets while having to fight 84 bogus ethics charges filed by the Democrats and not contested by the Republicans on the ethics committee, and later, the impeachment of William Jefferson Clinton) by threatening a "scandal."

It was a way for him, at least temporarily, to get on with all the things he needed to do as the Speaker with the new majority in the House. It was not the best course of action for him, personally, but it was the best he could do for the country.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Thank you for the good post and all the good links.

This race is getting closer to a bad end. A lot of us, like me, didn’t get our first OR second choice. There are three men still standing. Romney. Paul. Gingrich. And all the Gingrich stabbers continue to stab him. So you stabbers are pulling for either Paul or Romney.

Or Obama. Which? Tell us.

Rick Santorum donor Friess was Mitt Romney’s mole!
He dropped Rick and returned to Romney’s headquarters, that’s why Santorum dropped out, from lack of financial support and fear to lose his home state PA...

We could go through this thread, post by post and name each and every one of those traitorous pretened to be Santorum supporters, ALWAYS was Mitt Romney supporters by screen name.

Every one of them were always Romney supporters. To say otherwise would be a lie.

We Newt supporters never hated Santorum, and if Newt had dropped out we would all put our support to Santorum, not that we would like it, but we had to.

But not them, loyalty to conservatism and ABR, was not/is not one of their virtues. For them not to support NEWT at this point, proves my point. LIARS all and members of the well oiled and greasy Mitt Romney campaign, exposed.

I have read all of their comments, and literacy is not a virtue either it seems. NEWT IS STILL IN THE RACE, and still the THRONE IN MITTENS SIDE.

There are many of Romneys MOLES posting tonight, as well.

His campaign is full of greasy low life, who think nothing of destroying anyone that gets in their way. His campaign I suggest was responsible for the Herman Cain fiasco, and many many other things that have gone on in this election, put Pontiue Pilot Romneys hands are clean. Twern't ME he says.

ALAS, their biggest threat NEWT GINGRICH IS STILL IN THIS RACE.

But, one can say, Fox News and Brit Hume don't even mention Newt anymore, so he is not a candidate any longer? But, why then are so many Romney supporters on FR tonight trashing NEWT, who isn't in the race? Oh, they are such a confused bunch, aren't they?.

YOU. ARE. ABSOLUTELY. RIGHT.

An acquaintance of mine in the campaign, said that the Romney campaign won't address Newt because that would be treating him as a genuine, still viable, contender. Instead, they are directing Mitt's supporters to attack Newt over the net, and anywhere they can. And he told me this today. Looks like THE Mittbots got the message. Mitt thought he was finished with Newt - what's that saying - take a shot at the king - you better be sure it does the job.

Like most things, Mitt screwed it up bigtime...

NEWT'S BACK IN TOWN, BRINGING THE PAIN...

I saw that Mittens whining thread, and posted to that as well.

It is no longer necessary to mention all the things that NEWT has accomplised, imo. It will do no good to the Mittbots who have exposed themselves. Why bother?

Keep our conversation Upbeat,Positive and expose them for who they are and speak only to the like minds in agreement for NEWT, ALL OTHERS IGNORE. They are not here, we can pretend we are Britt Hume who is a past master at ignoring a presidential candidate.

They are really not NEWT haters either, they are just ROMNEY LOVERS and always have been, how much does that job pay, SUB SAMBICH?

I will check out the new NEWT website, thanks.

As per norm, you are right. The campaign is shifting, and so are the volunteers - collecting stuff and putting together an approach - wasting no more time debating sancto's supporters, or Mitt lovers, Just pushing Gingrich and his qualifications, experience, strengths to the forefront of every discussion...

they are hoping to have this in full swing by midweek... a lot of it is going to include encouragement, motivation, alot of people are very downhearted...

Delaware and NC are pretty much ground zero... DE only has 3 counties, 2 of them rural. He is working very hard there, and needs all the help he can get...

If you are the kind of person who can make phone calls those are going to be very important...

If you go to www.newt.org - they are upgrading the phone banks right now because they want to be able to handle a really big push to more than 1 state simultaneously...
