Newt Gingrich: small businessman?
http://twitter.com/#!/newtgingrich

"Husband, father, grandfather, citizen, small businessman, author, former Speaker. I'm running for president to offer leadership to solve America's challenges.
http://Newt.org"

Would anyone care to enlighten me as to what "small business" Newt ran/runs? Nothing in his biography indicates that he ever ran a business.....does grifting now count as a "small business"???

3. He's not a SMALL anything -
If they said "bloated, fat-ass businessman" I'd be OK with it...

6. I haven't heard "businessman" as as a euphemism for "penis" before..
But it really makes quite a lot of sense.. Businessmen spend a lot of time pissing and moaning while they fuck the hell out of people.

;)
