  • NEWT GINGRICH DID IT! Tipster/commenter bfstevie writes, “Saw the ‘American Solutions’ furry on the Wonkette. Turns out this is a ‘tri-partisan citizen action network’ whose General Chairman is Newt Gingrich.” Indeed! BUT: “Newt’s ‘welcome letter’ to the thoughtful tri-partisan web site uses the Einstein quote about insanity. This is the very same quote that the guy in Austin quoted in his mean spirited screed before he flew into a building.” Raid Newt Gingrich’s house for Saul Alinsky books — the only ones that count!

Can Newty even fit in a Cessna? He is the target demo for pj jeans.

I bet ol’ Newtie Pie isn’t too keen on the IRS either.

What the fuck is “tri-partisan” supposed to mean?

Hmm, maybe it involves cooperation between Republicans, Democrats and the Connecticut for Lieberman party.

Ah, big deal. I use the same quote to try to convince my daughter to get together all of her school stuff *before* she goes to bed at night, thus avoiding the mad, crazed and often tearful desperate search for shoes, books, homework, phone, iPod, coat, etc each school day morning.

(So in essence, I’m trying to convince my daughter she is insane? I better find a new quote.)

This may be off-topic, but:

Newty is the kind of (rabid) varmit it might be appropriate to off with a .50 cal. Desert Eagle.

Or a .44 Mag cal. Or a .357 Mag.

Or a potato gun. Whatever.

That’s funny — isn’t Newt doing the same goddamn thing he did in 1994 that ultimately led to his disgrace, divorce (again) and years in the wilderness? And what fucking result is he expecting this time?

Tri-partisanship is referred to by those wonks truly “in the know” as a “Lucky Pierre”.

1. As Lascauxcaveman pointed out, it’s really a pretty common quote. Could be just a coincidence.
2. I think tri-partisan has something to do with those funny hats the teabaggers sometimes wear over their sugar frosted hairpieces.
3. If a duck were to mate with an Eagle, would it be legal?
I don’t know but look! It’s a Deagle!

[re=515500]Neilist[/re]: Every now and then, you say something that is not insane. This is one of those times.

American Solutions is a loan scam. Also.

This is just too confusing to be just a coincidence!
