As you may heard from the LAMESTREAM MEDIA, Mitt Romney’s campaign has hit a few bumps/had a couple of setbacks/haven’t put their best foot forward as of late/is a ticking time bomb with only four seconds left on the counter and no one knows whether to cut the red wire or the green wire and WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE, MAN! I MEAN GAME OVER, MAN! as of late. This kind of thing happens all of the time in multimillion dollar high stakes national campaigns staffed by highly competent and professional people with years of experience in electing the leaders of tomorrow.
It is also happening at Romney HQ.
Now that conservatives are breaching the walls of Romney headquarters and then dragging the barely breathing body of the candidate down Main Street America to the jeers of ‘you people’, desperate measures are called for and, when desperation is called for and Jennifer Rubin is unavailable because she doesn’t roll on shabbas, we turn to Tucker Carlson’s outside of the house hobby where Yates Walker has just the man to turn this Romney campaign around just like Mitt Romney turned around the Mormon Olympics:
When a building is on fire, you call firemen. When your house is being robbed, you call the police. When the liberal press is mugging a conservative, you call Newt Gingrich.
There are many good reasons that Newt isn’t the Republican nominee, but give the man his due. Newt is a samurai warrior when it comes to putting the press in its place. Think about this one fact: For much of the 2012 GOP primary season, Newt didn’t have a campaign. He didn’t. His staff abandoned him. He didn’t have state offices. He didn’t kiss babies. He barely shook hands. He did almost zero retail politics, and yet he led in the polls for almost two months, won South Carolina, and almost stole the nomination. There’s only one way to do that: slay the opposition with sound bites.
Newt is a magnificent wordsmith. He has expert timing. He has an assassin’s sense of where his opponent is weakest. And — most needed in the Romney camp of all — Newt has a killer instinct. He goes for the jugular.
[...]Whatever the issues with Team Romney, the messaging problem needs to be solved. It could be solved with one phone call: Mitt Romney to Newt Gingrich, street fighter, gunslinger, ninja master of the sound bite.
Newt Gingrich is also a picker, a grinner, a lover, and a sinner as well as a joker, a smoker, and a midnight toker who has been known to get his loving on the run, by which we mean those blow jobs from Callista in the back seat of a car while Newt was still married to wife number six or seven.
But that’s all dry-humping under the bridge and we need to move forward so let’s go the Googleator and see what happens when we type in “Newt Gingrich on Romney“:

I shall call him Maurice.
I dunno. If Mittens sets Newtie up with a couple of interns with nice peaches, he’d probably shake that tree.
He’s also the pompitus of pomposity.
You gotta love it, when you’ve got Mitt and Newt in the room, and Newt’s the likeable one.
Good lawd this has been a special class of dumbasses this year, huh?
A joker like Newters re-habbing a space cowboy like Bishop HiFalutin?? Doesn’t sound like a good time to me…

Be somebody other than Mitt Romney.
Once you lose Bobo and Kristol, and all you got left is some hack named Yates, it’s probably time to retire to one of your houses and ride the car elevator day after day muttering to yourself, “What’d I say, what’d I say?”
Newtie would have definitely been a higher-karat strain of comedy gold, though Money Boo Boo is certainly giving it his best shot. I love that some wet-behind-the-ears kid with two last names tries to cast the Chris Farley of politics as a Clint Eastwood (pre-chair) bad-ass. Nice try, Champ, maybe Sta-Puf will hire you for his ’16 Lookin’ fer Strange primary campaign. Now go get your shine box.
Does Mitt even HAVE a personality?
Sweet. While I’m reading this I’ve got the Ghostbusters theme song goin through my head:
padda paa dap paa da.. who, ya gonna call?..
The Staypuft Marshmallow Man?
Money Boo Boo? That’s the second funniest thing I’ve seen today. The first being a Sovereign Citizen being tazered by a court bailiff.
Back in the primaries, when it looked like Newt vs. Mitt, someone wrote the greatest line of the year, which was something like, “The Republicans now have a choice between someone no one can stand and someone everyone hates.”
You can’t beat that.
Newt is a
samurai warriorsumo wrestler when it comes to putting the press in its place.Went ahead and fixed it up for Tucker’s boy. Now where’s my wingnut welfare consulting fee?
Yes, but you really do NOT want to know about it or see it in action.
You gotta love it, when you’ve got Mitt and Newt in the room, and Newt’s the likeable one.
Good lawd this has been a special class of dumbasses this year, huh?
American Exceptionalism at its, err, finest!
And that’s important, because apparently the GOP now believes their best shot for office is to do away with their own candidate and then whine for more time for a do-over.
Where’s the storm of trolls/parade of fail shit show?
Money Boo Boo wins the internets.
Don’t be so hard on Newt. He gave us enough ammo for an Army of Davids with 100 round drums.
Money Boo Boo wins the universe.
Newt go on the stump to rehabilitate Mitt’s reputation?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Cat fud. Oh please, oh please.
Exactly. Sittin at the bar this evening and told a motherfucker, “Yeh, I’m a liberal Democrat. The fuck you voting for? You make $200k a year? This Romney fucker looking out for you?! Some gay fucker gets married and YOU give a fuck, why? Bin Laden is dead and shit’s picking up. I’ve just got offered a job for the right money and a black man is president. Fuck Mitt Romney.”
I live in a red state and have been feeling ballsy. Thanks, Mitt. You dumbass…
Well played, sir/madam.
Thank you!!! Faux News and Rupert have done a right good job of demonizing liberals and Democrats. I am sick and tired of liberals not fighting back. I actually think the push back by MSNBC, especially Rachael, have finally moved the mark…well Jon Stewart and Colbert have been most invaluable, too, maybe even more. But, back to the start. Thank you, mass.
Yates Walker, Conservative Activist? More like part of the 47% so despised by Willard…
I try. I am a southern, straight, white man. Generally afraid to speak my politics, even outside the office, for fear of getting black-balled. But I will punch a wingnut in the throat if he gets in my face.
Well, good on you, mass. If it weren’t for Rupert and his army of complete idiots, the last person Southerners would abide is Mittens, that pole-up-his-ass rich guy, country club jerkoff.
Some elections are about who’d make the best preznint.
This one, it’s painfully, embarrassingly, obvious, is about who’d make the worst one.
So far, Romney’s “winning’, from campaigning like he was shaving points in the Super Bowl.
How’s that old saying go?
A punch in the throat is worth two in the nuts?
Which is true, since wingers have no balls a punch down there rates a-swing-and-a-miss…
Hey tanbark, a letter to the editor of my local newspaper says it’s time for a woman president.
Elizabeth Warren was recommended.
No mention of Dr President Jill Stein.
In what is sure to be great news for John McCain, it turns out that the American people were already miffed at Rmoney’s handling of the embassy deaths before this video came along. The video clearly shows that Willard was hoping for just such an event so he could take advantage of it. Stick a fork in him.
Heckuva job, Mittens.
Nice….where’s your paper, if you don’t mind….
No doubt because he speaks of the properties of love.
I am guessing that the 47% he has identified as those known as the ones it is NOT his job to worry about are about the same group that Ann knows as “those people.” Likely of them am I or will be.
HippyTown/TrackTownUSA otherwise known as Eugene, OR…
Most days the letters are a food fight with a bunch a cranky whiny
tanbarksteabaggers throwing poo just to be shot down by smarty pants progressive/liberals with a sense of humor! Here ya go….The OR Duck is also running for president also, too…
Thank you. He sets our a mighty good candidate. Will happen one day if we don’t destroy ourselves.
Oh, horseshit. Romney isn’t qualified to run my vacuum cleaner. I think it was Wonkette that disqualified him in the dishwasher realm. I believe that’s too high tech for this numbskull.
And, oh yeah, can someone verify that the liar Paul Ryan not only lied about his one marathon time, but now it’s his body fat? Jesus.
He must think someone actually cares about his time or his fat…Cannot imagine who that may be.
“You people.”
“Likely of them am I or will be.” Most damned assuredly!
I hope we will be in good company.
I think the Rs would have been better off with Newt. His numbers probably would be no better and maybe worse but Newt can BS and blather on without sounding like a department store dummy. Mitt is damaging the Republican Party in a way no one could have imagined. IMO
I also think “you people” are not ready for another stolen election. That thought is scary to me for several reasons….like who we might get and how the public may react. Once was definitely enough.
And yes, I am assuming we’re in good company; lots in it together.
The bizarre thing about Romney’s comment was that he thinks that the 47% that is with Obama is exactly the 47% who don’t pay federal income taxes. That can’t be a coincidence. We’ve all been talking about the fact that among the 47% is a large number of people who do not know they are in the 47%. I buy that. I know many of them. But what about the other side of the same coin? I am in the 47% who absolutely, positvely will vote for Obama. And I pay close to $50,000 a year in taxes. Which is 5 times what I get back in good and services from the government and close to 13 times what the average American FAMILY pays. And I am perfectly fine with that. Does he not know people like me exist?
I’m not a plumber, but I believe this is what we call “circling the drain.”
As others above have complimented: Money Boo Boo wins the innertubz, probably for the rest of the campaign season, at least…hiilarious!
Newt goes for the juggler and the apple bobber.
Bring in the women who allegedly consented to bobbing Newt’s knob.
They’ll breathe new life into the R Campaign.
So which is he, a ninja or a samurai? Not the same thing.
Heh. We haven’t even started debates yet!
I believe you now owe me one half an internet worth of brain bleach for making me think about about Newt having sex.
Where’s my damn chaser.
Oh yeah, the right wing was bragging about Ryan’s physical prowess in the marathon realm before he was ‘blown’. Now he’s lying about his body fat. I don’t give a shit about his body fat, but I do care about a liar, who’s physical stats prove that this jerk will lie about stuff that most people don’t care about.
Wait, wait, go back, go back to the ad right under this post. Oh right, it’s google/chrome generated. right. Well for this faux Republican it is this;
SilverSea Cruises, the most exclusive and expensive. Yes, that’s right, Callista’s favorite home away from home where she doesn’t have to mix with the hoi polloi.
And there we see Callista radiant and waiting for Newt, slim and gallant as he sees himself, striding up to push the harpy bitch overboard.
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
Dirty Deeds And They’re Done Dirt Cheap
(“Cheap” for Romney’s ilk)
I’ve been ready for a woman president for a long time, and I was hoping, at first, that Hillary would be the one, but then she decided to try to erase the liberal “stain” by smooching rightwing butt, and that was that.
Of Warren, I’m suspicious of her:
For letting Obama use her as a liberal dog-yummy for about a year, to try to keep progressives on the reservation…
For being a republican until she was 46…
And for refusing to answer when asked if she voted for Reagan.
Yeah, Newt is just exactly what the Romney campaign needs right now.
Has anyone noticed that nobody is even mentioning Newt on this post? You know he’s trolling you, Tbogg. Hee, hee, hee.
I know SNL tries and sometimes succeeds, but I think I’d give my right tit to see Monty Python tear this twit, Romney, apart. I don’t expect to see the Spanish Inquisition, but someone should please torture (with votes) the infidel Mitt.
Can you imagine how tortured Mitt is just being among the commoners? I am surprised he doesn’t wear long sleeves and gloves and carries antiseptic hand cream.
Anti-septic hand cream is so ’00s. Mitt has his hands irradiated after working a room or ropeline.
Willard Rmoney: The Gangster of Flub
Mittens really, honestly does not know the difference between a nuclear bomb and a ‘dirty’ bomb? Holy shit. And Condi or Powell has to school this moron in Israeli/Palestinian relations and he still says he’s not that interested in asking more questions? He is now beyond snark, if that’s possible.
hard to believe he is dumber than W.
I didn’t think that anyone who was running for President could be any stupider than W., but we have crossed the Rubicon of stupid. There is stupid and there is dangerously stupid. W. was incredibly, dangerously and ruinously stupid, but f**k me, this Gdammed ignoramous doesn’t even give a shit if he’s stupid (as pointed out by a former Sec of State of his own party) if it does not impact his pocketbook. George was infuriating and disasterous. Romney is vomit-inducing and even more disasterous because people take him seriously.
yep.
Can we get Wembley and Fenway on the ballot? Suggested official Presidential campaign song: ‘Up on the Roof’. Let us all paws and praise Dog.
Oh crap. I believe Wembley is half black, half white. Disqualified!l! Moocher!!! Deadbeat dog!!! We need to know just who pays for his dog food, toys and treats.
George W and Rmoney, fine examples of a Harvard education. If anyone’s in town, the Shorenstein Center at the Kennedy School will be hosting Alex Castellanos in October and David Brooks in November. Brooks is giving the Teddy White lecture. They do love their conservatives at liberal Harvard.
Newt and the Marquis.
Mmmm, sounds like the shitkicker version of Fifty Shades of Grey.
I am sure they’ll be very happy together.
Although if you’ve lost David Brooks, famed for plummeting to his knees in awe at any display of ‘Republican boldness’, you’d best not be telling your wife to pick out new decor for the White House residence.
No, no. David Brooks, willing to publicly suck the dick of any Republican….but just give fawning, insincere crap caveats while doing it. I think he finally met a dick he won’t suck. Just too, too white and clueless, even for David Brooks, which by God says a lot.
The other list
Newt is also a rambler and gambler, a long-tongue liar, a midnight rider, and a back-biter who works in the dark against his fellow man. He has run on for a long time, but sooner or later God is gonna cut him down.
You know, I almost hate to say it, but I think everyone’s a bit off-track about Mitt and what drives him. It isn’t just money, strangely enough! I happened to be shown a rough transcript of Mitt’s famous talk that got (mostly) videotaped that night from a friend who supplements his fire-fighter’s income by working as a wine-pourer/busboy at these GOP shindigs (he says the tips are miserable, but the cloakroom whoopie with the desperate wives is worth it). The relevant parts seem to have been cut out of the tape for some reason, but as best I can tell from my friend’s crude shorthand (his fingers are only 1″ long), Mitt started out by talking about what keeps him motivated to beat Obama, and about how he learned that the boys in his neighborhood have begun working the campaign struggle into their games: “I’m told they play at politicians, and the strongest always chooses to be Barack. They force the baby to be Mitt. The baby! _That’s_ where the canker gnaws! No, by carbonate of soda! …” [the rest was somewhat garbled, because apparently the room erupted in subdued smatterings of applause and clinking cutlery]
Such a fitting tenth-blogiversary gift- ‘Money Boo Boo’!
This is the most bizarre preznit contest evar! Even better than Ross Perot and that clueless guy he roped into running with him! Even better than George Wallace and ‘Bombs’ Away’ LeMay. Even better than John Anderson, Rock’n'Rolla! Even better than Ralph the Mouth Nader!
The cherries on top of this one- Dr. Jill Stein AND Gary Johnson.
Our Republic sure knows how to party!
As for Newt, he’s just showing the 2nd and 3rd string grifters how it’s done- take notes $arah and Christine! There will be an exam- in 2016!
“Hard to believe he’s dumber than W.”
Hard to believe that he’s still within easy striking reach of Mr. Bipartisan. I think that says a lot more about Obama than it does about Romney. At this point it’s looking like the fix is in, and I promise all and sundry, that only the most stupid, flat-earth republican peckerheads will really be pissed if Obama gets a second term.
When Barack Obama had that 79 seat majority in the House, it was still:
“Shit here, Mr. Preznint…good dog!……Now, shit over there!”
IF he can keep the Senate and re-take the House, I would like to hear what kind of sea-change anyone thinks he’s going to have, to make him confront the assholes, when he’s already rolled over like a toy poodle, when he had enormous clout.
The moderately intelligent repubs will be as happy as clams to have a preznint who’ll guarantee another 4 years of free-passes to their corporate agenda…at the same time they can scream SOCIALIST! at him, at the top of their lungs.
For our Wall Street lords, “SWEET!” is the only word to describe this little dog-and-pony show.
I’ve got nothing to add, except additional kudos for the Money Boo Boo moniker. Just didn’t want the drone that can’t stop whining about Obama compromising too much to close out a thread that was otherwise superb. It’s tedious listening to that sniveling sound.
Ain’t that the fucking truth.
Seems like if the whiny crybaby wanted to change shit he wouldn’t spend so much time here being a worthless fucktard.
But then again, tanbark ain’t into actually doing what he preaches. That’d be work. He’s happier being a miserable loser.
