Quote For The Day: Newt Gingrich Edition

Way to show that “courage” under “fire”, Newt.

With apologies to James McMurtry: “Meet the Press don’t make liars/It just makes fools/So I didn’t mean to say it/But I meant what I said.”

Amazing how the same people who insist that they can’t even be held responsible for their OWN statements have no problem smearing their opponents with OTHER PEOPLE’S statements connected by the thinnest of threads (eg, Obama and Rev. Wright, Obama and Bill Ayers, etc)…

since early 2009, when the entire GOP leadership took turns making pilgrimages to Rush Limbaugh’s show to apologize to that enormous gasbag

“Other Tossed Salads Michael Steele Might Enjoy” remains one of my favorite posts. You don’t get fat pitches like that every day.
