If leading the charge to impeach a sitting president for lying about an extramarital affair with someone half his age, while you were lying about an extramarital affair with an intern near half his age was not enough to finish off Newt, how about this:
In his unfailing piety, Newt Gingrich in 2008, fresh off his paid gig for Freddie Mac, went on Fox News and counseled John McCain to demand that Obama “give back all the money that Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae gave to you.”
Then a week later he urged John McCain to exploit “the close ties Chris Dodd, Barack Obama and Barney Frank have to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.”
Again, this just after Newt had wrapped up an eight-year consulting stint with Freddie Mac that paid him $1.6 million.
Typical Newt. Not an ounce of Shame.
Reminds me of the tale that one of Newt's wives tells about asking Newt to explain living an adulterous life while preaching family values to the unwashed masses. Newt responds to this question about his sinful lifestyle:
“It doesn’t matter what I do,” he answered. “People need to hear what I have to say. There’s no one else who can say what I can say. It doesn’t matter what I live.”
This should be Newt's Motto.
