Chairman Mao Zedong and President Nixon
The sentiments of many half-wits were echoed by Newt Gingrich on his recent trip to Fordham, when he told us how disgusting and terrible it is that President Obama shook hands with Hugo Chavez. (Really, for those of you who missed it, the fear-mongering cannot be overstated.)
Well Newt, lucky for us some dude put together an amazing photo gallery that shows us (gasp!) that President Obama isn’t the first President to civilly greet controversial world leaders. As the blogger points out:
“…it almost seems like getting to know your adversaries and becoming friendly with them actually acts as a deterrent from them starting wars with you? Go figure! Just like in real life with your neighbors and people you work with!”
The gallery contains pictures of Republican US Presidents cordially greeting everyone from Brezhnev to Gorbachev. Suck on that Newt Gingrich and all of you applauding monkeys who attended the event.

Matt Drudge, popular paper target and official news-source for Liberty Forum’s Rachel Ring has called for Americans to be weary of the impending annihilation at the hands of self-aware robot armies, and today he revists that dreaded scenario! This time around our pal Matt has linked to a Reuter’s column that loosely details the unspeakable potential of unthinking robot armies taking over for the caring, loving individuals we have doing Freedom’s gruntwork on the ground in far off lands like Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq.
Okay, conservatives, i get it now. After Newt “the Brute” Gingrich barreled into Fordham Prep and gave a (boring) sermon on the potential for novels, the television show 24, and the movie Goldeneye to go from fabulous fiction to terrible truth, I finally got the whole crazy thing pegged. Some conservatives may claim Ronald Reagan, or William F. Buckley as their intellectual (ha) heroes, but in reality, you guys are MUCH more badass than that. Conservative foreign policy is the ideological offspring of bros like Michael Bay, Jason Statham, James Cameron, and “Jack Bauer.” That would explain why Drudge saw the Terminator movies and said to himself: “oh God, I hope it’s not true… but what if?”
T2: Ripped from the headlines
You see, Matt, Arnold is actually an Austrian and the Republican Governor of California, not a robot sent back in time to protect/kill a future leader of human resistance.
But I guess, in the end, it’s as the old conservative saying goes: shit gets blowed up real good unless da goodguys do do blowin’ up first. Am I right, fellas!?

April 22, 2009 — the NEW ISSUE of the paper is out today! Find it in every dorm and class building on campus and RIGHT HERE ONLINE! (Check out the pages on the lefthand toolbar.)
Our cover is an homage to the terribly brilliant and brilliantly terrible puns and layout of the New York Post. Execution is boss, if we do say so ourselves.
Fordham’s $50,000 villain, Newt Gingrich, is back to peddling Bush-era fear rhetoric on the already bug-eyed conservative minority in this country that still listens to him. In an attempt to further damage the United States of America, Newt claimed that the US is, in fact, less safe under the “weakness” of Barack Obama’s diplomatic rhetoric, in a public chat with Politico readers on the popular website. He also echoed comic book supervillain and erstwhile Vice President, Dick Cheney’s claims that doing things like ordering the closure of the illegal, immoral, and embarrassing prison camps at places like Gitmo have made the United States not only less safe, but less powerful in the eyes of the world.
On the whole Newt’s rhetoric and general outlook on world affairs reveals itself time and time again to be poorly thought out and backwards (atavistic even!). On his “American Solutions” website that he links to, Gingrich uses Vietnam War-era rhetoric to enforce shameless populism in the face of real, complex economic issues. Elsewhere Gingrich strikes a strange blow against intelligent rhetoric when it comes to dealing with the threat of global terrorism, lamenting the loss of the ill thought out phrase, “Global War on Terror.” You can read the whole shebang, here.
Newt gingrich pictured in his political hey-day.
Between the Politco talk and his words on FOX News (a.k.a. Dullard TV), that slippery Newt sounds too much like a certain blundering evil-doer that occupied the White House for eight all too recent years. People like Newt Gingrich, whose shameless appeals to a particular strain of American myopia exist only to further an extraordinarily selfish and destructive agenda should have disappeared on election night. But as long as there’s fear there will be people like Newt spewing the same type of gimme-gimme-gimme attitude of a rich brat with too much power and too much money.
Hopefully the Young Republican’s successful wrangling of this sin-stained wretch will expose the disgraced former Speaker of the House’s twisted take on reality to the great unwashed masses here at Rose Hill.

Filed under: Edits, News | Tags: California, Gay Marriage, Newt Gingrich, Proposition 8
In a message directed at those in California who can’t read, erstwhile Speaker of the House and current douche-bag, Newt Gingrich asked voters to uphold the founding father’s terrible fear of homosexuality by voting YES on Proposition 8. In this message Newt reminds us of what is at stake in NOT banning gay marriage in California, and that is democracy. Newt sees a terrifying future where homo loving Judges sit in ivory towers delivering obscene proclamations upon the poor, simple people below. And he is here to say “NO!” by saying YES on Prop 8. Here it is in its (boring) entirety.
Kudos to Newt on not just coming out and saying, “God hates fags… vote yes on Prop 8,” but shame on you, lard-boy, for wrapping that ugly sentiment in American “History.” The message I’ve taken from this is that leaving the concept of gay marriage open to the interpretation of “radical judges” will start a domino effect that will end in America returning to British rule by judges in powdered wigs. Oh, Newt, I love abusing American history to fit your personal atavistic ends about as much as you fear homosexuality.
