Gingrich: Laugh

Newt Gingrich Dept: We could all use a laugh as we look back on the year in U.S. politics in 2012. So here s a glimpse at some of the funnier, more light-hearted moments, according to The Chronicle Herald. And so when the man who has compared himself to Charles de Gaulle promised to colonize the moon during a Republican primary debate, it wasn t just his political foes in the Democratic party erupting into peals of laughter. So, too, did many Republicans who have long rolled their eyes at Gingrich and the year 2012 is ending on a grim note in the United States. The horror of Newtown, Conn., and the utter insanity of the NRA s response to it, is still looming large. The fiscal cliff negotiations are in disarray, with the health of global economy at stake. Major partisan brawls lurk on the horizon on everything from gun control to immigration. Newt Gingrich, King of the Moon. Gingrich s entire existence is humorous to me. Always monumentally, fundamentally or profoundly pontificating about something, the peevish serial adulterer is utterly convinced of his own intellectual superiority to everyone.
