Newt Gingrich has been intricately involved in the Washington political
machine for 32 YEARS!! Behind the scenes for the
past twelve years, he has been a well-paid Washington D.C. lobbyist,
and political consultant, cashing in on every penny of the ‘big bucks’ that his TWENTY YEAR!! career in Congress could bring him. Those 20 years
alone make him a CAREER politician. Now, lets look at his record. The ACTUAL
record:
Gingrich served
twenty years in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1979 to 1999. He became
the House Minority Whip in 1989. He became Speaker of the House in
1995. That was the same year that he delivered a speech to the Center for
Strategic and International Affairs in which he said, “The American challenge
in leading the world is compounded by our Constitution…either we are going to have
to rethink our Constitution, or we are going to have to rethink our
process of making decisions.” That is a DIRECT
quote!!
Newton L.
Gingrich. Is how his name appears on the membership roster of the Council on Foreign
Relations. The CFR has been a training ground for progressives in America, and
a beachhead for socialism, and the ‘New World Order’ in our country since 1921.
The CFR was founded and funded by east coast bankers, primarily by J.P. Morgan
and John D. Rockefeller, with help from influential Europeans, following
America’s refusal to join the League of Nations in 1935. Its first mission was
to condition and prepare the United States for full membership in the United
Nations (enough said??). Today, the
CFR advocates for us to surrender even more of our national sovereignty, and
the implementation of world government (o’bumbler’s DREAM). The progressive
members of the CFR are globalists and internationalists. Newt Gingrich has been
a member of the CFR since 1990!!!
Back in 1979
when Newt Gingrich was still a freshman Congressman from Georgia, he helped
the worst
president in history Jimmy Carter (also a member of the CFR) to establish
the Department of Education that gave the American people Federal control over
the education of their children. In 1989 Newt Gingrich became the House
Minority Whip. In 1995, Newt became the Speaker of the House. In 1996, under
Newt’s leadership as Speaker of the House, Congress passed the largest single
spending increase to date on education in U.S. History, $3.5 billion dollars to
churn out a pack of illiterates.
He presently
claims that he “believes” in ‘small government’, but just last year he was
touring the country with President Obama’s Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan,
and Al
Sharpton, promoting
Obama’s ‘Race to the Top’ education policies, which hand out even more Federal money and require even more Federal regulations over local
school districts. Same song, different band. More HAND-OUTs and More
REGULATION. It’s been working sooo well for us so far, right?
In 1999, he resigned from "public" office over the disastrous midterm elections, when Republicans lost five congressional seats, which, aside from the 2010
midterms, was the worst loss to date in U.S. history for a Party not in control
of the White House. At the same time Newt was involved in one of many
extra-marital affairs, and a flap over a controversial book deal.
His last freedom
index score, taken in 1999 in the 105th Congress, when he was the Speaker of the
House, was an abysmal 50%! The Freedom Index is an evaluation of a
Congressman’s record, based on the U.S. Constitution, and compiled by the John
Birch Society. The combined budgets of the 95 major programs that Newt’s “Contract
with America” promised to eliminate, in reality have increased
by 13%... over the years The then Republican controlled Congress continued
to approve discretionary spending that exceeded even Bill Clinton’s requests.
During his lucrative
career as a well paid Washington DC lobbyist, and political consultant, the
former Speaker's company accepted between $1.6 and 1.8 million dollars from
Freddie Mac to tidy up its tarnished public image and to remarket the housing
lender to a growingly skeptical Congress, even as they were going broke by
making bad loans. HE JUST KEEPS GETTING
BETTER AND BETTER…
Gingrich's firm
was also paid over $300,000 by an ethanol lobby at about the same time that he
was (cozying-up) making global warming commercials with Nancy Pelosi. He wasn't
just helping Al Gore, he was actually padding his own pockets. While this might
not be a conflict of interest (he was cleared by an “independent” ethics panel
which Pelosi sat on-HA!!) it certainly looks like a breach of the public trust.
