How long before Gingrich has to apologize to Limbaugh?
On Meet the Press he said Limbaugh was not the leader of Republican party.

2. I'd like to see the two of them in a "no-holds barred" grudge match
and I don't even like wrestling! LOL

7. You won't have to worry about that
as neither could get it up to actually wrestle, could they?

4. he won't have to apologize
unless he says that Rush marginalizes the party.

9. Mark...
It's the ugliness inside that makes us take a good look at him & scrutinize his appearance.

Some of the most beautiful people I've met could have been that size & it wouldn't have mattered. It's that "be careful what you say & how you treat people" kharma that Limpballs, one of the least perfect -- & ugliest -- people among us, should have heeded.

Just thinking of him as a visual aid.

11. Newt has his own base in the party its smaller than Rush's
However, they are loyal and they give Newt money. Rush really can't threaten Newt the way he can the rest of them.

30. But Gingrich won't get far without the Limbaugh followers. He needs Limbaugh.

12. That might be a question better directed to their ex wives
How many in total?

Gingrich has surely one upped Limbaugh in one regard- he's the only one to have actually served divorced papers to a wife while she was in the hospital fighting breast cancer.

16. Yeah, but Newt didn't think to use an Ass Pimple as an excuse to Dodge the Draft
Edited on Sun Mar-08-09 01:37 PM by SpiralHawk
Which was Rush's Highly Original republicon ploy.

Newtie just whimped out and became a Republicon Chickenhawk Hero the Old Fashioned Way.

18. Whew- that was harsh.
OK let's see:

"Cyst on bum" vs. "vow breaker in the hospital."

Two more cowardly sorts would be difficult to find. Might be interesting to see them fight it out.

28. At this point- anyone who identifies with Republicans period is someone who has a problem
Not to say that Democrats aren't messed up too- many certainly are.

Just that there's a certain element that ought to be (and once upon a time in America was) relegated to the fringe.

14. Watch Gingrich . . . he is still quite adept and looking for a leadership role again ....
Gingrich was very effective as a "Contract on America" destroyer for the GOP/elite --

fascists.

And, he will continue to try to come back ---

Either Gingrich or Limbaugh permanently sidelined would be helpful to democracy.

Both very destructive people ---

17. Gingrich isn't elected to anything
so Rush can't threaten him quite as much.

22. he's a nasty piece of work jockeying for position with Repub Party again.
Edited on Sun Mar-08-09 01:34 PM by Lex
He'll say anything to try to set himself apart and win back some sort of moral authority.

26. He seemed bright enough on Ethics In America, back in yesteryear....
But of course, so did Scalia.

Thankfully, I learned.

27. But isn't that like saying 'I have respect for Farmer McGregor,'
and siding against Peter Cottontail?

I think he's a selfish POS that plays ugly propaganda games, but he owns his views unapologetically.

25. The best scenario here would be for the 2 of them to run into each other at
the next GOP conference and beat the crap out of each other in the lobby.

It would be up on YouTube in 10 seconds and broadcast to the entire planet.

31. Newt doesn't need dittoheads to vote for him.
Ergo, no apology.
