Newt is one ignorant bastard....
From Media Matters:

Gingrich: George Soros "wants to spend $75 million defeating George W. Bush because Soros wants to legalize heroin"

In a discussion on the August 30 edition of FOX News Channel's Hannity & Colmes of unregulated "soft money" contributions by 527 groups, former speaker of the House and FOX News Channel political contributor Newt Gingrich claimed that financier and philanthropist George Soros "wants to spend $75 million defeating George W. Bush because Soros wants to legalize heroin."

Gingrich's remark, aired live from the Republican National Convention, echoed a smear of Soros made one day earlier by current Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert on the August 29 edition of FOX Broadcasting Company's FOX News Sunday: "I don't know where George Soros gets his money. I don't know where -- if it comes overseas or from drug groups or where it comes from. ... George Soros has been for legalizing drugs in this country. So, I mean, he's got a lot of ancillary interests out there." When asked by host Chris Wallace if Hastert thought Soros "may be getting money from the drug cartel," Hastert responded, "I'm saying I don't know where groups -- could be people who support this type of thing. I'm saying we don't know."



Please send emails to Newt, Fox, and Hannity.

1. Has he divorced another woman? Maybe if he could
find the One, we could keep him at home and out of the public discourse.

2. What do you expect from Newt.?
They create a lie and then they repeat it over and over. newt, hastert and there will be someone else too. I think Soros should get them. Destroy them. It can be done. Finance some one to run against hastert and make sure that newt is never allowed in government again.

4. He isn't ignorant. He consciously and intentionally tells outrageous lies
He knows his lies will get more media coverage than the subsequently revealed truth. He has boasted of using this tactic and encouraged other republicans to do the same thing. Yoe are correct however about him being a bastard.

5. Hi there Dick Tuck! Welcome to DU!
BTW, did you really dress up as a train conductor and signal the engineer to leave the station while Nixon was in the middle of a speech on the back of the train? :hi:

Is the scat muncher (see Bill Hicks) REALLY saying that Soros wants to legalise heroin AND because of that may be getting money from drug cartels Why on earth would drug cartels support the legalisation of smack????? Methinks Rush needs to ease back on the Oxy's

9. In a parallel universe Newt is just doing his job....
protecting the BFEE underworld heroin business. Everyone knows Bush* attacked Afghanistan in order to secure a cheap and plentiful supply of opium and eliminate all competition in the process. With warehouses brimful of high grade smack and the boys poised to unleash the poison on the street, the last thing they want is legal heroin and competition. - That's just plain un-American! Newt is a hero!

Note to self: make adjustment to your medication schedule :crazy:

10. Newt's on FAUX, accusing Kerry of have secret meetings
with the Vietnamese, in Paris of three separate occasions.

The repugs, must be getting very desperate. They are really spewing the crap around.
