Idiot of the Week

It is my pleasure to introduce this week's Idiot of the Week, an occasional blast of left-wing hubris bestowed on a deserving idiot by Round Bend Press and its name-calling, un-PC blogger, me.

You know this week's idiot as the former history professor-turned-politician and Speaker of the House of Representatives in the Clinton era, the man whose deeply divided GOP brethren rebelled against him after embarrassing ethics questions surfaced regarding his personal tax matters. He is the former congressman from Georgia, Newt Gingrich.

(the faint sound of clapping)

We know him well.

Newt has written another ridiculous book, and this one sounds like a doozy.

Things are getting uglier by the hour it seems. How do you like the photo of Newt? It's his official congressional portrait and, frankly, it looks gay.
