Newt’s Got A Kid Problem

Filed in National by on December 1, 2011

So Newt thinks that poor kids only know how to rob and steal.

The asshat from Georgia thinks he’s a celebrity because some idiot is willing to pay $60K to hear him bloviate. And anyone who’s been around since he first took office back in the 80’s knows he has a huge ego. As Jonathan Capehart points out:

“I helped Ronald Reagan and Jack Kemp develop supply side economics. I helped lead the effort to defeat communism in the Congress.” I didn’t realize communism in Congress was an issue, but I digress.

Perhaps he was misquoted. But as Capehart points out, it ain’t so.

GOP hopeful Newt Gingrich defended his stance against certain child labor laws during a campaign stop in Iowa Thursday, saying that children born into poverty aren’t accustomed to working unless it involves crime.

“Really poor children, in really poor neighborhoods have no habits of working and have nobody around them who works so they have no habit of showing up on Monday,” Gingrich claimed.

“They have no habit of staying all day, they have no habit of I do this and you give me cash unless it is illegal,” he added.

So this schmuck hates poor people and screws around on his wives. Exactly what we need in a President. Not!

    Next he’ll claim to have developed the theory of phlogiston and the geocentric model of the universe.

    At least Al Gore invented something useful. But no, Newt claims to have invented supply side economics. That is like saying you invented toxic waste.

    Oooh, I love it when X Stryker talks dirty.

    Boot Newt! I just loved Newts comment re: children being placed in orphanages like “boystown”…he said this while the Boystown scandal was happening. Google: boystown USA + GOP, pedophilia and the GOP.
