[Whisp]

3. what an absolutely stupid and disgusting newt idea.

I really thought this was a joke?!

maybe it is? is it?

4. Sadly, no

The Newtster actually proposed that schools fire their janitors and hire low-income kids to come in and clean under the supervision of a, get this, janitor. I'm guessing that logic is not Newt's strong point. Certainly history isn't, in spite of his PhD in the subject.

5. in spite of his PhD in the subject.

NO, his PhD was a Doctorate in Philandering.

6. Just another bad idea from a party that's nothing but bad ideas.

7. shows how out of touch he is --he doesn't realize how few janitors there are to replace!

even if the idea was a good one!
