This blog will focus on political images I have found all around the Internet, though I will intersperse some commentary and quotes that I find interesting.

If you quote Newt, or playback the video of his words, you're lying about what he said.
When taken together, the videos of the last post (regarding the rapture) and this one, it confirms my belief that there are millions of really stupid people on this planet and another whole bunch who believe that the stupid is intelligent.
I think we are evolving - but we're getting dumber as we do so.

Conan O'Brien on Newt Gingrich
"Newt [Gingrich] says he cheated on two of his wives because he was too consumed with love for his country. Apparently he misunderstood the phrase, 'Please rise for the Pledge of Allegiance.'"

Republicans CAN Be Funny
The source for the story below is HERE...
In early October, The Lodge, a Dallas strip club, was reported to have received an Entrepreneur award from Newt Gingrich's American Solutions for Winning the Future (ASWF) group, only to have it taken away. When one wins such an award, a $5,000 donation is necessary, and that was refunded, and the cash was redirected to a different cause: an animal shelter.
Dawn Rizos, owner of The Lodge, redirected the money to Animal Guardians of America's sanctuary for rescued dogs in Celina, about 35 miles north of Dallas. The new shelter, called “Newt’s Nook: A Home For Pit Bulls” is now open. For some reason, Gingrich didn't attend the opening of the shelter.

Newt Gingrich Shilling for Big Oil
Newt Gingrich is on the stump again - he was on the Daily Show this past week - but what I didn't know, and it was not apparent in his interview with John Stewart, is that he's now in the embraces of the big oil companies. The following is from the Progress Report (Think Progress's newsletter) dated 9/5/2008.
RADICAL RIGHT -- GINGRICH CLAIMS U.S. HAS MORE OIL AND GAS SUPPLIES THAN VENEZUELA OR SAUDI ARABIA: During an appearance on the Tavis Smiley show earlier this week, former House speaker Newt Gingrich -- stumping for his "Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less" campaign funded by right-wing billionaires to sell the Big Oil agenda -- claimed that "if you used America's energy resources and you didn't have to buy oil from Venezuela or Saudi Arabia it'd be a lot less expensive." Yet what Gingrich didn't mention is that the United States has only 2 percent of the world's oil and gas reserves but uses 24 percent of production. This isn't the first time Gingrich has showed his ignorance on energy issues. He has previously said that inflating car tires properly in order to save energy is "loony tunes" even though both the Department of Energy and the auto industry advocate such practices. A few days later he made the astonishing claim that inflating your tires somehow enriches Big Oil's profits.
