Yes, there are much worse neocons and regular campaign-cons than Newt. Sad that they cannot form their own little, open and transparent, parties like in the civilized part of the world. PS. We had four distinct communist parties, and they all struggled to keep the count below that, and we have exceptionally low thresholds for any village idiot to form his own party. Same thing on the libertarian-neo-liberal-con side, but they only managed to come up with three jokes. Bless those consensus-mechanisms, and that viable center party of common sense, which keeps the funny ones just funny for all of the not-so-dark-masses. (comes naturally, like the Nature Law Party, when they are free to speak their mind off their proportional representation seats in congress)

Newt, diabetes and a two-party system, the best medical care you can lose (due to diabetes) must be the funniest political stuff in the whole world. Except for Hustler, evil-evil-evil, like Reagan used to say and Newt continues, despite his resignation. Anyway, Newt sounds just like before, despite all the family issues and the more funnier and famous ones. Such are the realities, track records of two-party systems. Btw, Denmark has had some similar attempts, they too have single-seat districts, just like France. lp2cd.com

The Tofflers, did they get diabetes, type II, or was it the prostate, and didn't learn to handle it?? Is it true that he too was an object of his wife?? Nothing to do with that business of deepfreezing brains and sperm, shining alumnium jars, for the lazarus long future, no?? Overfarting that motherly breast and oidipussy sillycone ancient stuff, not yet, yes.. Just think what a regular common sense sauna-tradition can do for all ages, at an early age, wipe out and cleanse the mind of those Tarzanian and Victorian dilemmas, even that torch of the shackled lady with high heels. Or just a multi-party system based on a common-sense-center and some consensus-mechanisms, especially from early years in the sauna, all ages represented. (just think about it, the US religious right would have never had a chance back in 1972, nor in the 1700s nor 1800s, they would worry more about diabetes, breast cancer and prostates)

Why doesn't Newt sell his own professor-lectures, books nor that French book anymore?? Not even on a couple of DVDs, through PayPal?? Just GETTYSBURG!! Must be that prostate stuff and that Viagra-Bob?? However, this one (female) call-in has a point on mercury in vaccines, just like with Burpton. Funny stuff... for somebody who got one vaccination the way all but the superior-effiecent babycare system of US decided to do them, as those things are very ancient, kind of history things.

Newt thinks CSPAN should be put on a world-wide satellite, just as the also know-nothing Georg Gilder, who had not "known" Internet, another poor, badly damaged brain lost behind too many comets.. Unluckily they both are now pretty evenly overrun by broadband.. broadbandc-span.org However, Newt is just as fun at 4.8kbps as 500kbps, transatlantic link or on a local cellular, analog phone.

Btw, is it true, like one Newt-fan claimed, skilled in history, that recent archeologic Discovery Channel fundings and findings have found and funded that as english was good enough for Jesus and Nebukadnesar, even Gilgamesh, it is good enough for Newt?? skypoint.com Sad that Newt did not make his life in UK pettingmaster.mobiltelefon.hu Well, maybe on the Murdoch-Fox channel, funnier than ancient BSkyB had ever had any dripping hope for. (however, Jefferson is rukin'n'rollin' in his grave, on basic reading and writing skills of the dark masses, atlhough that too is really fun) Bless the now demented Lady Thatcher, although the british have some serious gulliverian-tarzanian-pavlovian-orwellian problems to get out of their two-party-system, too. Luckily Newt was and is a kind of isolationist, not really the imperialist, trying to keep the fun back home.

Isn't it interesting to see that the question of "blind support of Israel" is fracturing liberal parties in both France and the US? Indeed, as long-standing dens of Jewish opinionmakers, both the Democratic Party and the Parti Socialiste are increasingly at pains to advocate their pro-Israel line.... In the US: Message 17960005 In France: 'Can we criticise Israel?' Although the leadership of the French Socialist Party continues to support Israel come what may, dissent is brewing in the ranks. Jeremy Landor* writes from Paris* A row has erupted in France's main opposition party, the Parti Socialiste (PS), over its unstinting support for Israel. A number of its leading figures have been prominent at recent events and demonstrations in support of Israel. But Pascal Boniface, a member of the PS national strategy group, director of the influential Institute for International and Strategic Relations (IRIS) and author of a recent book, 'Can we criticise Israel?', believes that they have gone too far. In protest, he has quit the party after 23 years as a loyal member. In a letter written to the secretary-general of the PS, François Hollande [Jew], in July, Boniface complained that "priority is given to those in the PS who have an ethnic reading of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict". He was also upset that a former finance minister, Dominique Strauss-Kahn [Jew], had insulted him in a speech at a pro-Israeli rally on 22 June, calling Boniface "contemptible". Boniface tried to persuade PS leaders to modify their policy towards Israel before the presidential elections in May last year, asking rhetorically: "Can we vilify Joerg Haidar (Austrian leader of the fascist Freedom Party) and treat Ariel Sharon normally?" He also made the controversial suggestion that Israel be added to American President George W Bush's "axis of evil". In January 2003, PS leader and former Prime Minister Laurent Fabius [Jew] resigned from the board of IRIS along with Serge Weinberg, director of the retail giant Pinault-Printemps-Redoute. Boniface was sacked from his position on the PS strategy group last month, and has been labelled an anti-Semite by pro-Israeli writers. However, a director of the magazine L'Express, Professor Grosser, supported his views, submitting his resignation after the magazine gave an unusual degree of prominence to readers critical of Boniface. According to Boniface, there is widespread support for his views in the PS. "The majority of people in the party agree with me, but Hollande does not want any trouble."
