		Newt Gingrich's party finally recognized that the man was a living embodiment of the Peter Principle, promoted far beyond his level of competence.
		Gingrich, in his arrogant comment of 1996, was right on only one out of four counts: he was Speaker.

		Gingrich refused to comment on Manning's charges, though he has admitted sexual indiscretions during his first marriage -- hey, it was the '70s, man!

	Newt's New Con
		Gingrich, after all, was the architect of the so-called K Street Project, which is at the center of the current corruption scandals.
		Gingrich is now puffing out his chest and telling everyone what a bad guy he supposedly thinks Jack Abramoff is--but he is noticeably silent when it comes to how he was Abramoff's prime sponsor, the one who helped the GOP lobbyist ascend to power in the first place.
		The truth is, Gingrich's posturing as an anticorruption "reformer" is as credible as Senator John McCain's calling himself a campaign finance reformer right after being implicated in the Keating Five scandal, and right before using corporate jets to fly all over the country for his presidential campaign.

		If Newt Gingrich is planning on running for President in 2008 — which appears likely — it seems odd that he would give a speech at a dinner honoring free speech saying a "different set of rules" may be needed when it comes to the first amendment and effectively fighting the threat of terrorism.
