The Ballad of Newt (in Honor of Newt’s Re-Emergence in the Race)

So here comes old Newt

A real fucking beaut!

Abandoned a wife who had cancer

This fat piece of crap

With gums all a-flap

Now postures as if he has answers

Newt Gingrich

Oh, he can tell you how

To cheat on your frau

And he knows about shopping at Tiff’nys

A liar, a letch

A windbag, a wretch

With morals as weak as his stiffies

Hey, Gingrich

That thin bitch

Ann Coulter wants to do ya

Your Missus

Knows this is

Worth ten more diamonds to ya

You conman

Come on man

You must think we’re all suckers

You fat rich

Fuck Gingrich

You pompous motherfucker

You’re down there with Herman

Both serial vermin

The best of Republican virtue

A pandering whore

Above every law

Keep thinkin’ that nothing can hurt you

So, it’s sweet makin’ fun of

Someone with a ton of

The slime that you have oozin’ from you

You’re arrogant, bloated

A hypocrite coated

In “Christian,” – tho’ Christians should shun you.

  3. This man with the odd-name (who names their child Newt) makes my back teeth hurt and I’m not sure what is worse.. Him (and all his attributes you so wonderfully described) or the zombies that follow him around like lap dogs..
    Sorry for the rant, feel better now….

  4. Figures I always miss out on something great when I dont log in for a day or two! Your final words re: christians reminded me of the saying “there’s a special place in hell for them” ….

  5. I found your blog through a blog that had left a comment on my blog that told me about you from their excursion on another blog! Whew! And my man it was definitely worth it. I love your writing. I love your politics. I love your humor. I’ve been navigating through several of your posts, and I love, love, love the one on Hitler contesting the repub candidates. Your writing is smart, thought-provoking, and LOL funny.

    Please drop by my site if you have a moment. I’ve written a couple of humorous pieces as an African-American humorist that you might enjoy (“Get Up Outta My Face” and “Don’t Quote Me–But I Think Jesus is Pissed!”).

  6. I’m a “right wing” conservative. I really am. The social issues which place me there are issues of reason and morality on which I’ll not budge unless soundly proven wrong.
    That being said, I agree that the Republican, “right wing” characters who are running and have run for office for the last two decades have been indeed silly and laughable. They would be even more so if they were not consistently so dangerous to America’s ideals and original vision.
    So I say again that I’m a conservative because of my social perspectives and understanding of morality, certainly not because I’ve found the visions of Republican candidates to be in line with my own.
    Anyway, great post. Pretty rough and extreme, but you certainly get the point across!

  11. I have to ask myself why I would want to move from Chicago to the land of Newt and Herman. Seriously? Is this the best Georgia has to offer? What the hell?

    • Oy! Georgia!…once got shaken down by a corrupt judge and his cop pal there. cop caught us doing the limit (NOT speeding- but we had NY plates so…) bought us to a “courthouse” in the middle of the woods, fat “judge” behind a desk, “judge” says ” fine’s $100 (mind you this is 1966 – $100 = i dunno – $1,000?) we say “we weren’t speeding, we want a trial” “judge” drawls: “we-e-ell, court don’ convene but once a monf, an’ it convened yesstiday” as he gestures to a nearby room with bars, i believe it’s called a cell…we paid. anyway lisa h, thanks once again for reading and commenting. continue…

  14. My ex-douche bag boss was in love with anorexic Annie. I can’t figure out what rock she crawled out from under, but sure wish she’d crawl back.

    Please tell me it ain’t so . . . Gingrich . . . I’m going the go hide in bed with the covers pulled up over my head until the Rep’s determine which ass clown we have to be concerned may buy his way into the Oval Office next.

    I know the answer and I’m sorry to go there again, but there has to be somebody willing do videos for your “songs.” They are just too perfect not to share the love.
