Something is off on your browser, I see the Glenn Beck ad too. Likely Flash is disable or not working to properly load the ad.

Wow! There are lots of angles this could take, I guess let's see what ABC News does next. It's their move.

That was awesome!

Love your Sig & Avatar!

BTW, is it me, or does Newt's paramour turned third wife look like a freaking alien?


They are the same!

It's kinda scary!






Actually, she is more scary. Looks like a bad attempt at a cyborg or something

Good point. Perhaps ABC called Drudge and leaked it to boost their ratings when they air this. I'm sure that happens all the time.

You can be sure the DNC, Obama, Harry and Nancy all have the entire transcript by now. Obama will be behind lots of these stories on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and any of their affiliates. They probably sent somebody to Newt's ex to get her to do the interview.

This is going to be a long year and I'll likely hate them all from any side by the time the years over.

Hopefully this will blow his campaign right out of the water. Don't like him, don't trust him. He's shown himself to be a major hypocrite. Another "Do as I say, not as I do" politician.

That's news to me. I wrote a thread on Newt a few months ago and thought I researched all of his shenanigans pretty well. I could have missed this, but that's major...I would think.

ABC is probably holding back on airing this because should Newt Gingrich win South Carolina there is a possibility he could win the nomination. If he won the nomination, seeing as how ABC is virtually Obama's network, they would air it during the general election campaign and demolish the GOP ticket. Unethical? Yes but very sneaky, I like it.

They've let the cat out of the bag though, so they can't sit on it for that long.


I think they will wait until next week...because when can they air this? Tomorrow night while the debate is going on? No one will watch. Friday night? Everyone knows Friday night is a horrible night for TV.

So they will hold it over till next week purely for the ratings.

Everyone should contact ABC and tell them that it's unethical not to air this interview before the primaries.

CALL THEM/EMAIL THEM

This is important for the primaries.

What exactly does this mean for the veracity of the report?


That's for the ad ABOVE the word for Glenn Beck's TV show.

EDIT: Oh. Been dealt with. sorry.

I think most informed people knew this was comming for Newt. The real question is why did it take so long?

To me Newt has already served his purpose, he prevented Ron Paul from winning Iowa, hurt his numbers in NH, and may prevent Dr. Paul from winning in SC. Now Romney is starting to pull away from Dr. Paul for delegates and MSM decides to air what many of us already know about Newt.

Does it have anything to do with this? Full story linked with investigation documents.

New t Gingrich, Marianne and the Arms Dealer:A Buried FBI Investigation



On October 5, Sarkis Soghanalian, once the world’s largest private arms dealer, died at 82. He had sold weapons to scores of dictators including Saddam Hussein, and he took many secrets with him to his grave. But one secret he did not take involves Newt Gingrich when he was Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives. DCBureau has learned that Gingrich was at the center of a U.S. Justice Department criminal investigation in the late 1990s for a scheme to shake down the arms dealer for a $10 million bribe in exchange for Gingrich using his influence as Speaker to get the Iraq arms embargo lifted so Soghanalian could collect $54 million from Saddam Hussein’s regime for weapons he had delivered during the Iran-Iraq War.

FOX News grabbed it and says hold the news too until after South Carolina: gretawire.foxnewsinsider.com...


There is often no perfect answer…you just have to use your best judgment and hope in the end it is the right thing to do.

I have no idea what this ABC interview is other than the limited stuff I am reading on DrudgeReport at this hour. I am flying blind in this posting and my opinion is only based on what little I know now.

What I DO know is that we are only 2 days out from the South Carolina primary and there is a high risk from the Drudge Report description of an explosive interview of unfair poisoning of those going to the polls.

There simply is not enough time for a candidate to respond to the explosive report and fairness also includes fairness to the candidate. This is not to say that news should be suppressed (it should not) but news should also not be used to ambush. Thus…in light of the close time to the South Carolina primary…if I were ABC, I would hold this interview until after the polls close on Saturday (or I would have showed it a week ago.) What do YOU think?

My guess is either cross-dresser or pedophile.
One or the other.

We saw that on page 1 of the thread... it very well could be that story with more detail added by his ex-wife. We just don't know what it is right now, only ABC News, Matt Drudge, and Marianne & Newt Gingrich know the details... having watched the DrudgeReport.com for a decade or more, I know he's got something really juicy to run with an explosive headline on a viable candidate.

Time will tell, but thankfully I'm betting ABC News has a rebuttal tonight because as OutKast said, "the cat's outta the bag."

Actually, she's not an angry ex-wife. From the interview she did with Esquire, she's glad to be rid of him. Besides the arms-dealer story, there's her opinion that 'he should never be president' and that he's not suited for the job. And, he's prone to deep depressions... that right there is enough to sink the guy permanently, not to mention if he were ever examined by a competent psychiatrist, his diagnosis page would be several chapters long. He's a Napoleon wanna-be.

Very good read here: www.esquire.com...

Thanks for posting, I'll dive into that article once I post this.


As we wait on ABC News, here's a summary of the 5 worst things she's said about Newt. From my quick take, none seem bad enough to sink his ship, so there's got to be more, or maybe the FBI-Iraq-weapons story with new detail is it (if true, that is prison-term bad).
