...today's political giggle...
Newt Gingrich, the architect behind the 1994 Republican
revolution,
officially announced he's running for president via Twitter.
Gingrich, a former House speaker, is the first major candidate to
declare a run for president with a tweet.
Gingrich's biggest problem may be baggage, both political and
personal.
He resigned from Congress in 1998 after his party suffered
massive
midterm losses, and amid a barrage of ethics complaints.
It later came out that he'd been having an affair with a staff
member,
Callista Bisek, while leading the impeachment proceedings against
Clinton for allegations of perjury in the Paula Jones sexual
harassment
civil case and in Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky. Gingrich
married Bisek in 2000, making her his third wife.
Gingrich has been divorced twice, explaining his infidelities to
the
Christian Broadcasting Network as triggered by passion for his
country:
"There's no question that at times in my life, partially driven
by how
passionately I felt about this country, that I worked far too
hard and
that things happened in my life that were not appropriate,"
Gingrich said.

Another family values republican and the conservative nominee for
husband of the year.
Don't listen to words. Listen to what they have done. Listen to
who they
associate with: Middle America? or Ivy League, Globalists, Wall
Street/London/Brussels etc.
Yeah... what Gingrich has done... cheated on his wives, lied to
Congress, held the US hostage by shutting down the gov't, pushed to
impeach Clinton for no good reason. Yeah. What a guy.
Let me guess. Monika is your role model.
