Where do you get your information from the Onion? Really, I mean where do you guys come up with this stuff. The IRS cleared him of IRS fraud. He was still found guilty of ethics violations and had to pay the 300,000 fine. It was a bipartisan committee that found him guilty. Not to mention the fact that he admitted guilt.
I can only assume that someone is typing your posts as it is obvious that you are not able to read the articles that you post. He had to pay a 300,000 investigation fee. The remaining 84 were dropped after he agreed to pay the fee. Kind of like a plea bargain.
Maybe finally we can put away that myth that you believed for so long.
It must really **** you off that (in your mind) Newt is guilty of all this bad stuff ... but no one cares and Newt keeps climbing the polls ...
Do you sleep at night?
Actually I love it. Run Newt Run. Hell I hope he wins the nomination. There is a good Republican out there, but you guys won't vote for him. So go ahead stick Gingrich out there. It will be like a lamb to slaughter.
Not only is Newt a scumbag with the women. He is also an unethical politician. He has lied and admitted to lieing. His own party rebuked him and cast him like old garbage. People seem to have short term memory problems.
"The House voted overwhelmingly yesterday to reprimand House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) and order him to pay an unprecedented $300,000 penalty, the first time in the House's 208-year history it has disciplined a speaker for ethical wrongdoing.
The ethics case and its resolution leave Gingrich with little leeway for future personal controversies, House Republicans said. Exactly one month before yesterday's vote, Gingrich admitted that he brought discredit to the House and broke its rules by failing to ensure that financing for two projects would not violate federal tax law and by giving the House ethics committee false information.
"Newt has done some things that have embarrassed House Republicans and embarrassed the House," said Rep. Peter Hoekstra (R-Mich.). "If [the voters] see more of that, they will question our judgment."
That very recent link you dreamed up comes form nearly 15 full years ago.
Have you heard Nasty Nancy threatening to tell us all the crap she helped dig up on Newt? Do you know that what she said she would do is a violation of House rules and also the law about using that kind of information at a later date.
I don't know of anybody who was around back then (1997) who doesn't know that that committee charged him with 38 wrongs and the House got him on only one of the 38. Hmmmm, that is one great attempt at Demoncrat push to get rid of the only real competition for Romney.
Looks like its going to be newt by default as theres really no one left standing for the GOP..
I have been listening very closely to Michelle Bachmann and have returned to her side. After listening to her this afternoon on the internet place I spend 2 hours every day, today, I have decided she may well offer more than any of those ahead of her. Of course, I don't know what the left leaning blogs are saying about her these days. I don't think she has been accused of any ethics violations in the House yet or surely Nasty Nancy would be swinging at her.

Paying an investigation fee isnt pronouncement of guilt
Not all of them, 83 of the 84 charges were dropped,
and the other one resulted in he MAY HAVE violated tax law by using tax-deductible contributions from nonprofit organizations to teach an allegedly partisan college course.
They couldnt even find him guilty on that one either.

So? We already had a former President who was lying (not "lieing") constantly... William the Impeached... the former President who cheated on his wife over and over.
