Oh yes, Newt is running for President.

Anybody remember that house speaker that shut down the government, seemingly because of a seating place on Air Force One. The guy that was behind impeaching an American president for having an extramarital affair, WHILE having an extramarital affair. A guy who, as Walter Matthau put it (At the 3:23, just replace John Gustafson with Newt Gingrich)...........



Ok, so he didn't say that, but yeah, thats my feeling toward him. Well, he's running for President of the United States now. He hasn't announced yet, but he has no need to announce. He's been throwing loads of diapercrap at the President like some insane toddler.

Like here-Where President Obama is now 16 years old.



and here, where the CBO is now wrong since bureacrats created it and the top 2% will be damn dirt poor to invest if their taxes jump to 40% from the 35% they are on now.



and this, where he wonders why President Obama can't say that the Park 51 community center shouldn't be built.



(Even the muslim ones Newt?)

This is a guy that financed this film and released it on Saturday.



The piece of the analysis to me which further tells me that he is running for President is this quote, from the revered conservative digest, The National Review.

“What if [Obama] is so outside our comprehension, that only if you understand Kenyan, anti-colonial behavior, can you begin to piece together [his actions]?” Gingrich asks. “That is the most accurate, predictive model for his behavior.”

“This is a person who is fundamentally out of touch with how the world works, who happened to have played a wonderful con, as a result of which he is now president,” Gingrich tells us.

“I think he worked very hard at being a person who is normal, reasonable, moderate, bipartisan, transparent, accommodating — none of which was true,” Gingrich continues. “In the Alinksy tradition, he was being the person he needed to be in order to achieve the position he needed to achieve . . . He was authentically dishonest.”

A con man, wow. Newt Gingrich, the 58th Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives who left office in disgrace wants to call someone a con man. So it is said by the family values conservative that left his cancer stricken first wife for his second, then left her for his third after she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. (If I were "Listy", I would definitely get a checkup, cause for Newt a runny nose=nother woman.) The guy that impeached President Clinton about lying about his extramarital affairs while having his very own. The guy, who according to his second wife Marianne,

"He believes that what he says in public and how he lives don't have to be connected," she says. "If you believe that, then yeah, you can run for president."
Sitting on a bench, she squints against the light. "He always told me that he's always going to pull the rabbit out of the hat," she says.

I had a conversation before where someone declared that President Obama was narcissistic. I listened, though fundamentally disagreed with that point of view. Hell, anyone that runs for President has a huge ego, no doubt about that. However, no one can tell me that he does not love his wife and children more than he does himself. A real narcissist wouldn't be able to possess that.  I don't get that with Newton Leroy Gingrich. Newt should talk, lambasting the President's transparency, leaving the Speaker's chair with ethics violations and even having his own party believing he was too manic for any leadership role. Everything he said above is a projection of him onto the President.

Yes Newt, run. I hope to God you run so we can fillet your already smoldered political corpse. Run, trying to "otherize" the President again. Say he's "anti-colonial, I am too. I understand why Kenya wouldn't want to be under British rule. Hell, we should understand their plight. Weren't we under British rule. Weren't George Washington, John Jay, James Madison, John Adams, and all the other founding fathers "anti-colonial" as well?

I really don't want to get cocky. President Obama could very well be defeated in 2012. Its hard to tell what lies ahead and anything can happen. However, with the straw poll 2012 Republican lineup for Presidential nominees.......Palin, Gingrich, Barbour, Romney... its hard not to be.
