Never has there been a more arrogant and sleazy candidate running for President of the USA, in my honest opinion....Newt Gingrich..... scary as shit, slimy as a slug, slippery as a snake...
This all looks sleazy to me, and not because I'm jealous of a wingnuts fortune. THIS, PLUS 11 more reasons Newt Gingrich CAN NOT be President of these Great United States, as written by Kelly Vote Obama-Johnson, a Facebook friend and fellow Liberal who supports President Barack Obama 100%!!
1.
Multiple Marriages- One of the biggest issues with Newt Gingrich is
that he has married three times. In the past, this may not have mattered
but right wing voters, especially the religious ones, may have a
problem with this. This will hurt Newt Gingrich and if the religious
right backs him it will be a huge show of hypocrisy. But if you think
Newt’s multiple marriages is a reason not to vote for him, you should
read why he’s been married multiple times in the first place.
- 2. Infidelity- Newt Gingrich is trying to paint himself as a family values candidate, but that’s just not going to fly. He’s been married three times and he cheated on the first two. While his first wife was being treated for cancer, Newt served her the divorce papers while she was in the hospital recovering from surgery. Apparently he left her because “She isn’t young enough or pretty enough to be the President’s wife.” Then he carried on an affair even while attempting to impeach President Bill Clinton for his own affair. If that’s not hypocrisy, I don’t know what it. He then left wife number two for the younger woman he was having the affair with.
- 3. Deadbeat Dad- Newt has at least one thing in common with Joe Walsh. They’re both deadbeat dads. It took a court of law to force Gingrich to pay utility bills to keep the electricity running for his kids. That should kill his chances with anyone who values family and children.
- 4. Health Care Mandate Hypocrisy- Did you know Newt Gingrich supported a health care mandate similar to the one signed into law by President Obama? Well, you know now. Newt has always been a fan of health care mandates, so it was perplexing to hear him condemn the mandate when Democrats passed one.
- 5. Government Shutdown- Newt Gingrich is also a big fan of government shutdowns. When Republicans captured the House in the 1990s, Newt and the GOP decided to put the country at risk and actually shut the government down in an attempt to hurt Bill Clinton. So, let’s say Newt becomes President and Democrats control Congress. What stops Gingrich from shutting government down by refusing to sign critical budgets? The answer: nothing. And with the current economic state, Newt is a gamble we can’t afford.
- 6. Freddie Mac Payouts- For three years, Gingrich has blamed Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae for the economic meltdown in 2008. He has also called for putting Chris Dodd and Barney Frank in prison for being affiliated with them. Well, it turns out Newt was a highly paid strategic advisor for Freddie Mac during the years of the housing bubble. Gingrich reportedly made $1.6 million during that time.
- 7. Confederate Sympathizer and Racist- Gingrich has a fascination with the Confederacy and has fantasized about the South winning the Civil War. He even wrote a book in which the South wins Gettysburg. He’s also a racist. Throughout President Obama’s first term, Gingrich has used code to disguise racist remarks. He has continually referred to President Obama as a Kenyan, and the “food stamp President.” It’s not very Presidential at all.
- 8. Draft Dodger- Gingrich supports further war in the Middle East, especially with Iran, and has criticized how President Obama has waged the war against terrorism, despite the fact that under the Obama administration, several high level terrorists including Osama Bin Laden have been killed. But, you should definitely think twice about voting for Newt because he has never served a day in the military. During Vietnam, Gingrich avoided the draft by getting a graduate school deferment even though he supported the war. That’s right, apparently the chicken hawk considered himself too smart to die for his country.
- 9. Fiscal Irresponsibility- It’s funny how Newt considers himself a fiscally responsible conservative, especially when he has a personal spending problem. During his tenure in the House, Gingrich was involved in a banking scandal while in office in which he bounced 22 checks including a $9,000 check to the IRS. And let’s not forget that Tiffany’s bill.
10. ‘Contract On America’- Gingrich was the main architect of the Contract With America, which Bill Clinton dubbed the ‘Contract On America.’ The contract includes many of the current schemes Republicans support now including a balanced budget amendment which would basically force America to live under conservative rule, lower taxes on corporations, perhaps as low as an anemic 12%, and the slow death of Medicare and Social Security. Gingrich would bring all of that with him to the White House and would likely throw the full weight of the Oval Office behind each measure along with abortion bans, laws against homosexuality, increased oil drilling, and increasing the outsourcing of jobs.
11. Big Ego And Arrogance- Most Americans want a humble man to be their President. Newt Gingrich doesn’t have a humble bone in his body. Throughout his career, he has had a giant ego and a whole lot of arrogance. Gingrich once whined about not being allowed to exit Air Force One from the same door as President Clinton. Gingrich had to exit from the rear of the plane, which is where everyone but the President, his family, and foreign leaders exit from. Gingrich, in his arrogance, believed himself privileged enough to warrant the Presidential exit. Gingrich is also egotistical when describing himself.
“I have enormous personal ambition. I want to shift the entire planet. And I’m doing it. I am now a famous person. I represent real power.”~Newt Gingrich
“Gingrich – Primary mission, Advocate of civilization, Definer of civilization, Teacher of the rules of civilization, Leader of the civilizing forces.”~Newt Gingrich on Newt Gingrich.
Newt Gingrich has A LOT of baggage that every American should be aware of. Even ‘family values’ and ‘fiscal’ conservatives should take note because of Gingrich’s propensity for chasing younger women and his personal failure to get his own financial house in order. There are plenty of reasons why Gingrich is unfit to lead and now you know at least eleven of them.Kelly Johnson
Thank you Kelly, I know this will be helpful to the fence sitters who visit my blog! :)
Obama-Biden 2012
this is scary, just saw this at The Daily Beast......
Like many evangelicals in Iowa, Steve Deace, an influential conservative radio host, is wrestling with the possibility that Newt Gingrich
may be the most viable standard bearer for family-values voters in the
next election. It’s a conundrum, he says, that many others are also
grappling with. "Maybe the guy in the race that would make the best
president is on his third marriage," he says. "How do we reconcile
that?"
One senses him trying. "I see
a lot of parallels between King David and Newt Gingrich, two
extraordinary men gifted by God, whose lives include very high highs and
very low lows," Deace says. David, after all, committed adultery with
the ravishing Bathsheba, then had her husband killed, among other
transgressions. The Bible makes room for complicated, morally
compromised heroes. Now Christian conservatives, desperate for an
alternative to Mitt Romney, are learning to do so as well.
"Under normal circumstances,
Gingrich would have some real problems with the social-conservative
community," says Tony Perkins, head of the Family Research Council. "But
these aren’t normal circumstances."
Lolita Paz...I just think about those great Christian presidents of the past..
Nixon, tho born a Quaker like to "hit 'em right fucking square in the mouth" or "blow their fucking asses away..." But damn! he did love his Jesus and all the church daddies and church ladies worshiped at his neo-pagan shrine.
Reagan was a winner for the lord. He just forgot when he sinned so he never had to ask for forgiveness. He was boinking Nancy while he was still married and she was boinking Sinatra is the Blue Room. Never went to church but never missed cocktail hour..
How could we forget the saved and sanctified W who prayed with Billy Graham once (tho Billy doesn't remember it). Once was quoted as saying about his pastor's sermons, "I don't remember much, but I know they did me good." Killed maimed and wounded thousands of Americans and did the same to hundreds of thousands of innocents in Iraq in the blessed name of our lord, Jesus Christ. Amen and Amen!
Wonderful men. And now we have serial sex offender Newt running for Great Leader who was leading the crusade, in the name of jesus the christ, against poor Slick Willie who just wanted to have some fun.
I just can't stop praising the Lord for these dedicated Christian male models...
May God continue to bless America! God, we are good!
Amen again.
