Newt : "I can think of nothing more despicable"??? I can. [View all]

Oh how DARE John King ask Newt about THE news story of the day. Newt of course went belligerent a$$hole and played victim all at the same time.

"I can think of nothing more dispicable"??? I can. The hospital divorce of the first wife. The open marriage request to his recently MS diagnosed second wife (who he cheated on while his first wife was sick) and when she said no he asked for a divorce on the phone ....while she was visiting her sick mother.

Newt is the modern architect of using the media to go negative on not just a single person but an entire ideology (see his collaboration of action words with Frank Luntz).
