The male counterpart to Sarah Palin has spoken up, but he’s still a moron. Thus, the air is sweet and the fish swim in the sea and the sun rises in one part of the sky and then it settles in Utah and could use some company, it’s pretty empty out there.

Very, very few people are dumb like Newt Gingrich is dumb. And nobody but Newt so strangely gets called ‘smart’ like he does, being the stone cold chunk of stupid that he is. Not that he’s yet been comically exposed for his vapidity, for what reasons I’ll probably never know–maybe he looks like everybody’s junior high school English teacher? And, hey, he wasn’t such a bad guy, right?

But what can you say about a guy with a million Twitter followers, a pillar of political thought, whose internet pamphlet is bannered like this?

Mind you, he put that in quotes. Maybe somebody else said it before him, and he’s just being honest. Good for us.

In all cases, this post that seeks to re-make the United States of America will be predictably en-dark-ening, particularly to those of you who thought that Republicans aren’t the intellectual Herefords we liberals mock them for being. Especially when it’s the sort of thing that TRUMPETS TALKING POINTS inside its own text IN GIANT LETTERS as if they were BREAKING NEWS or HEADLINES ALL ON THEIR OWN. Because he can’t really MAKE HIS CASE, so he relies on FONT SIZE to MAKE IT FOR HIM. Funny.

Here we go. And remember, this is the intellectual giant of the Republican party:

On Terrorism it’s Time to Know, to Profile, and to Discriminate
Newt Gingrich | Newt Gingrich Letter | 12/30/2009

After the Christmas Day near disaster in Detroit, it is time for Americans to demand effective anti-terrorist actions.

TA-DAAAH. Why didn’t we think of that before?

Our Politically Correct Government is Making Life More Miserable For the Innocent

. . . instead of targeting the source of the threats, our politically correct government decides to make life more miserable for the travelling public by imposing hopelessly meaningless rules such as not allowing passengers to leave their seats in the last hour of the flight. Bound by cultural sensitivities, the default reaction of the bureaucracy is to review the procedures and wring its hands ineffectively.

Today, because our elites fear politically incorrect honesty, they believe that it is better to harass the innocent, delay the harmless, and risk the lives of every American than to do the obvious, the effective, and the necessary.

Newt is talking about George W. Bush’s TSA flight rules. Obama hasn’t touched them.

It’s Time to Be Honest About What We Know

Before a lot more Americans are killed we must acquire the courage to tell the truth and to act on that truth. It is time to be honest about what we know.

We know our opponents are radical extremists of the irreconcilable wing of Islam (Islamists, some would call them)…

Protecting the Rights of Terrorists Has Been More Important than Protecting the Lives of Americans

In the Obama Administration, protecting the rights of terrorists has been more important than protecting the lives of Americans.

That must now change decisively.

It is time to know more about would-be terrorists, to profile for terrorists and to actively discriminate based on suspicious terrorist information.

It’s a parody, isn’t it? We should try to know more about terrorists. And “discriminate based on suspicious terrorist information.” Like if they appear to be members of Al Qaeda. Or carrying bombs in their luggage.

We Need a “Grand National Strategy” That is Bigger Than the Debate Over Afghanistan

The emergence of Yemen as the new planning, equipping, and training center for terrorism should remind us we need a worldwide “grand national strategy” (to use the World War II term) that is far bigger than our current debate over Afghanistan.

Americans should also note that ABC News is reporting that two of the plotters to blow the Amsterdam to Detroit flight out of the air were released from Guantanamo in 2007, attended an “art rehabilitation program” in Saudi Arabia, were released and took up senior leadership positions in al Qaeda in Yemen.

Motherfucker doesn’t even remember that we’re currently at war with Iraq. Or that the war was hailed as the center for reforming all of the Middle East by planting democracy in the terrorist heartland. Or that the USS Cole was bombed by Al Qaeda in Yemen back when Bill Clinton was President.

The New Honesty Should End Any Thought of a Civilian Trial in New York for KSM

This new honesty about the threat should end any thought of a civilian trial in New York for 9/11 mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammad with its dangers for exposing American intelligence information. All terrorists including would-be bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab should be tried in military tribunals as part of a serious war strategy…

We Need a New Homeland Security Secretary Who Knows We Need a New Strategy

Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano’s claim that the Detroit bomber was allowed to board a plan with explosives hidden in his underwear proved the system worked is proof we need a new Homeland Security Secretary who knows we need a new strategy and a new focus.

These are the first steps toward defeating the extremists.

We should take them before there is a tragic attack that kills a lot of people.

Yes, we should. Good idea. Better than after. I agree.

We have been warned. Again.

Will we now act?

Your friend . .

Newt!
