O'Reilly, Gingrich and the "Newt Spin Zone"
Talk about a Karl Rove wet dream come true. Tonight's "O'Reilly Factor" had a segment with Mr. Splotchyface playing straight man to Newt Gingrich, the premise being "now that we no longer have a jobless recovery, what are the Democrats going to do?"

I may be wrong, but at one point I thought I heard Gingrich claim "a half a million jobs have been created in the first quarter."

Also, according to Chairman Newt, Richard Clarke is a disgruntled former employee and a liar. He wrote the book because he was up for a major promotion he did not get, it's all lies, he sucks.

And if you're going to fight terra, "You want a man as tough as George W. Bush" fighting it. Regarding the recent atrocities in Fallujah? "George W. Bush is not Bill Clinton, Fallujah is not Somalia, we are not going to cut and run." I guess he came to that conclusion because George W. Bush is...oh, I dunno...tough????

Gingrich, somewhat mockingly, felt that unless the Democrats "create" an issue before November, Bush has won on fighting terra and now the economy is all better so maybe the fight will be about gas prices.

1. Everytime Newt came up against Clinton, Clinton cleaned his clock.

3. 1/2 million jobs???????????
unemployment is still up, the over-privaledged,awol,druggy,tough guy campaigner in chief is so tough and so brave he can denounce the real heros(John Kerry,Max Cleland,John McCain, and so many others that did serve proudly when called upon) that might get in the way of tag team repug politicians achieving their ultimate goal of a hotel on every property, their get-out-of-jail-free-card in their pocket,and control of all 4 railroads and free parking.After all it is just a game to them isn't it????
