The Eleven Craziest Things Newt Gingrich Has Ever Said

This is a very good short article on the nation that everyone should read. Here are just a few of the eleven:

(1) �I am convinced that if we do not decisively win the struggle over the nature of America, by the time my age they will be in a secular atheist country, potentially one dominated by radical Islamists and with no understanding of what it once meant to be an American.�

(2) �The idea that a congressman would be tainted by accepting money from private industry or private sources is essentially a socialist argument.�

(5) �It doesn�t matter what I do. People need to hear what I have to say. There�s no one else who can say what I can say. It doesn�t matter what I live.� �

(6) �The secular socialist machine represents as great a threat to America as Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union once did.�

1. I have a hunch Douglas the list will get longer, probably sooner than not.

Number 4 is a friendly reminder to racists, vote for Newt.

4) �What if( Obama) is so outside our comprehension, that only if you understand Kenyan, anti-colonial behavior, can you begin to piece together ( his actions)? That is the most accurate, predictive model for his behavior.�

2. Don't Inflate the Tires on Your Car

On Hannity's show, Gingrich said:

"Well, I got a very funny e-mail from a retired military officer in Tampa who pointed out that most tire inflation is done at service stations and you pay for it. And it�s actually a higher profit margin than selling gasoline. So Sen. Obama was urging you to go out and enrich Big Oil by inflating your tires instead of buying gas."

5. No. 2 is a huge belly laugh. Only you, Newt, could pull that one off with a straight face.

6. AssHat of the highest order

Gingrich should have long ago been so roundly ridiculed for that kind of rhetoric that a run for the White House would be unthinkable even for someone who could utter such nonsense.
