After leaving Congress under a cloud in 1999, Newt Gingrich transformed himself into an entrepreneur, building an empire of companies and nonprofits that took in about $150 million over the past decade. The former House speaker disentangled himself from most of the firms to run for president. Since then, some of the organizations have changed in his absence.

1. How many people does Newt employ?

Does he pay benefits too? And does he contribute to their retirement?

2. I wonder if that has anything to do with his stand on immigration?

. . .then again, I can't picture him paying out a dime of his own money for anything.

3. Wow, Newtie is a Druggie Lobbyist

How shocking to learn that a Republicon 1% like Newtie is a Payola Puppet of Big Pharma (R). Just shocking.
