Newt Declares WWIII (some SCARY crap, folks!)
Neo-con favorite declares World War III
By Jim Lobe

WASHINGTON - Two years before the 2008 presidential election, Newt Gingrich, the former Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives, is trying desperately to grab the national spotlight by declaring he'd be a lot tougher than George W Bush in prosecuting what he calls "World War III".

In the latest in a series of recent presentations and writings, Gingrich called this week in a speech at the neo-conservative American Enterprise Institute (AEI) for, among other things:

# The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) to "clear out any Taliban forces" in Waziristan if Pakistan fails to do so.

# Washington to "take whatever steps are necessary" to force Iran, Syria and Saudi Arabia to stop the flow of weapons, money and people into Iraq.

# To help "organize every dissident group in Iran" with the goal of replacing the regime, failing which, "we certainly have to be prepared to use military force".

10. Someone needs to ask him if he enjoyed his bjs even half as much as
Bill, and if he feels even a soupçon of shame or hypocrisy at his excoriation of Clinton when he was doing far worse at his SPEEEKAH's desk, in his SPEEKAH's office, on his SPEEEKAH's couch and on the SPEEEEKAH's Conference Room Table!!!!

He needs to tell us how long before wife number three .... becomes ex-wife number three? Or is he slowing down in his old age?

He's got a lot in common with Ted Olsen, and other family values baaaastids....

2. If it were really WWIII, we wouldn't all be shopping.
If there was a real threat, there'd be a draft, and you'd better believe we'd be at war, not this bullshit "war on terror". Words are nice to throw around though, aren't they Newt?

9. He is a spoiled brat attention whore
but he knows his Goebbels techniques. Do not underestimate him, nor turn your back on the little weasel.

Shine light on the Newt. He needs to be exposed for the scum he is.

Newt is a slick one and needs to be confronted with the truth at every turn.

6. Pick up the October 2006 "Discover" magazine.
Newt is totally reinventing himself as a man of science in a move to run for President. That interview is scary because he seems to be a man of intellect who will allow stem cell research and says evolution is science and creationism or intelligent design is philosophy. :wow:

13. He senses a STRONG WEAKNESS IN THE GOP
Make no mistake, Newt is an ASSHOLE, but not STUPID.

Remember the shit he pulled with the CONTRACT "ON" AMERICA??

He knows that every single GOP bright light has a SERIOUS PROBLEM. EVERY potential GOP presidential candidate has some crappy stink on them, and the biggest stink of all is the BUSH STINK. Even the ones trying to deny the Monkey have that fetid smell of Ken Mehlman GOP money all around them.

Make no mistake--Newt's thinking "If fucking NIXON could do the comeback thing, it's gonna be a cakewalk for me!"

11. So now Newt Gingrich thinks he has the power to declare war?
Edited on Thu Sep-14-06 04:32 PM by EstimatedProphet
I'm not surprised. What I am surprised about is that his ego can fit all the way into his head, it's so big...

14. Newt Gingrich and Joseph McCarthy are are two snakes from
...the same den. Just listen to McCarthy and tell me if he and Newt Gingrich don't sound very much alike:

An address on Communists, "deluded liberals", "eggheads", and other political enemies who opposed McCarthy's methods.
