First and only Speaker to be fined $300,000 by his own party on his way out the door, and I hope it hit him in the parts he uses to formulate talking points.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't shot with a night-vision camera.

Yes - particularly if it's my Grammer vs. Tori Spelling.

Speaking of Ole Newt. When he was still nursing his vapid dream of being nominated for President in 2012, he went to kiss Donald Chump's ring in NYC.

They announced a special version of "The Apprentice" for inner city kids (you know, the folks Paul Ryan likes so much!).

What ever happened to that wonderful project?

And remember, kids, Ole Newt is the intellectual powerhouse of the Republican Party!

I was really hoping he was being sarcastic in that first quote. Otherwise he was doing a really bad job of making his point by including 3 individual job titles in front of her name and then implying she's never done anything worthwhile.

"Giant-headed moon enthusiast Newt Gingrich..."

That's some funny stuff right there!

At CPAC earlier this month, Ole Newt said President Hillary Clinton would be "a prison guard for the past." I'm not sure what that means - but it is more than a bit hypocritical for a guy who was last in public office (certainly not public service) a decade ago to be complaining about someone else representing the past.

That really isn't a fair comparison! Paris Hilton has real talent! She...well, she can...you know there's that...

OK - you're right. But the Kardashians were only able to push Paris off the stage because there are so dang many of them.

Hillary may be famous, but Newt is <i>in</i>famous. Infamous means he's more than famous. He's not only famous, he's infamous.

Admit it, Newt. You're just jealous because you spent the last 16 years wandering the hinterlands selling second-rate books to third-rate people, and the best you got out of it was hosting a rehashed CNN show that was better off dead while Hillary Clinton got to be a Senator, a Secretary of State and now is a high-visibility Presidential possibility again.

WAIT! WHAT? I didn't know that. I have to move my candles, space heater, blow torch and spark collection.
