Man, Newt Gingrich is really losing it. Here he is on Nancy Pelosi:
I think this is the most despicable, dishonest and vicious political effort I’ve seen in my lifetime. She is a trivial politician, viciously using partisanship for the narrowest of purposes, and she dishonors the Congress by her behavior.
We all know how much Newt loves his list of “contrasting words” for people he doesn’t like, but now he’s just sort of stringing them together randomly. What the heck is “trivial” supposed to mean? And why use “vicious” twice? It’s like he’s getting political Alzheimer’s or something.
