Newt Gingrich as President- Will oral sex not counting as adultery be one of his planks?

Newt Gingrich, the former House Speaker and perennial big thinker in the Republican party, said this morning that he will likely run for president in 2012 if he and his wife, Callista, assess the field of candidates in 2011 and feel "a requirement as citizens that we run."

Please. This is what Gingrich always does to keep his name out there, and to maintain his quasi-celebrity status on the national political scene, more with the national media than with the party leadership or base.

He also knows full well that all the old dirt would come out, and a lot more we don't know about yet -- the truth about the character and conviction of Newt Gingrich -- and it's that, one suspects, that motivates any reluctance he might have to re-enter electoral politics, perhaps even more than the fear of losing. Here's what I wrote back in June in a post on his silly attack on "paganism":

I'm not sure Newt was being so Christian when he was getting blown by his various mistresses (but not, he claimed, committing adultery, because oral sex apparently doesn't count) -- or when he demanded a divorce from his first wife Jackie in her hospital room, where she was recovering from uterine cancer surgery -- or when he refused to pay alimony and child support after their divorce -- etc., etc., etc.

The fact is, Gingrich enjoys a certain status on the national scene. Simply put, he is respected. Some of us find that respect seriously misplaced -- and I wish we'd dispense with the "big thinker" label for a self-aggrandizing partisan who is "big" only relative to the smallness that rules the GOP -- but the media love him, and not just the right-wing kind. And he's not about to give that up by risking the truth coming out, which it would, nor by fighting it out in the GOP gutter only to lose, which he would.

So please. Enough. Do the media really not know when they're being used and abused and lied to? (Because, in this case, that's exactly what's going on.) No, alas, no, which means we're likely to get much more of all this nonsense whenever Gingrich wants some attention.

    • The news boggles the mind. Candidates are lining up Jeb Bush(this one can speak English), Mooseburger, Joe the Plumber and now Newt. Cancel that order on the clowns, they are already here.

    • By 'extension', I suppose he doesn't view Clinton's blowjob(s) as adultery neither. Oh right...

      The lineup of GOP presidential hopefuls in 2012 is going to a more colorful one than usual, if that's possible.

    • His campaign slogan will be " Bringing Lewdness Back To The White House ". As I'm typing this, to my right is an ad to sign up for Newt's newsletter, as much as I know he would like to see nude pictures of my wife, I'm "not gonna do it". This douchebag has more skeletons in his closet than Courtney Love.
