Feel free to have a pop at Gingrich right here.

The civilized world stands balanced between victory and defeat.

The long road to victory begins with the free world helping the Lebanese democracy defeat Hizbullah, expelling the Iranian Revolutionary Guards and removing all of the 10,000 plus missiles aimed at Israel from Lebanon. Then we must create the circumstance where the Lebanese can control their own territory and thus end the mortal threat to Israel.

The ceasefire called for by the recent and ill-advised G-8 communiqué would do the opposite. It would simply allow the terrorists to organize and prepare for the next round of killing and bloodshed.

The nature of the threat - with Iran at the epicenter - is at its core ideological. The ideological wing of Islam that is irreconcilable to modern civilization. And while not operationally connected, the events of just the last seven weeks throughout the world share the common strategic goal of defeating the West and its values. It could be accurately described as a third world war.

1. I regard Newt Gingrich, at best, as a comic book character.

I'm not seeing him anywhere near the White House in 08.

4. But comic book characters

are two-dimensional, something Newt couldn't aspire to on his best days.

2. Never got over his terrible twos

Has to be center of attention

Will try anything to make others think he is in charge

Is a big part of what is wrong with US government now and how it has messed up the world.

Stuff a sock in it, Newt. Go find another girlfriend so you can get rid of THIS wife. How many does that make now?

Still teaching those classes using the principles and teachings of Joseph Goebbels?
That shit is making America the same sort of place Germany was under the fascists.

The man just wants to be the one to assign seats on AF-1. He's still steamed about having to sit with the regular folks when Clinton had a funeral to prepare for.

3. "Will try anything to make others think he is in charge"

Maybe we should lock him in a padded room with Alexander Haig and see who wins.

5. So is he going to volunteer his fat ass to fight it?

...



I didn't think so.
