Newt To Paul Ryan: My Bad Man, I'm Sorry
— DrewM

I put this in the headlines last night but since I've been pounding on Newt pretty good for the last few days, it only seems fair to give this a post too.

Gingrich and Ryan traded emails and spoke on the phone, a call that “went really well,” Gingrich’s spokesman Rick Tyler told Fox News.

The former House speaker also held two conference calls with Tea Party leaders, one on Monday night and one Tuesday morning, to explain what he meant by his comments Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Politico reported. “We’ve tried to correct the record and admit it could have been done better,” Tyler told Politico. “We move on.”

Gingrich went "On the Record" with Greta van Susteren Tuesday night to respond to criticism over his comments.

"I want to set a precedent for new kinds of presidential campaigns," he told van Susteren. "I made a mistake and I called Paul Ryan today, who's a very close personal friend, and I said that."

Before the apology, Gingrich spent a good part of the day doing damage control with bloggers and other pundits. During one of the conference calls Newt tried to make lemonade out of lemons by tying his rough (to be polite) first week in the race with Ronald Reagan.

“Every once and awhile there's going to be a problem, and you gotta spend three or four days fixing it,” he said. “If you go back and look at Ronald Reagan's record, the opening week of the campaign in Sept. 1980, they didn't have a very good week. And they had to go back and fix it. This happens occasionally. The trick is to relax, look at it, try to figure out what happened, and keep moving.”

And with that candidates comparing themselves to Reagan hasn't only Jumped the Shark, it's been ripped to shreds and eaten by the shark.

Newt also said he was surprised by the adversarial tone of the Meet the Press interview and wasn't ready for it. Mind you, he's been on the show 30 something times over the years,. He should also know that even if they've been nice to him while he was out of office and chilling on the global warming couch with Nancy Pelosi, now that he's even a remote threat to Obama (he's not really but the MFM doesn't take chances), he's going to be destroyed by the press.

Poor Newt, no friends on the left or right any more.

Actually, that' not entirely true. The obnoxious Dana Milbank comes to Newt's defense. However one gets the feeling this new found respect for Gingrich is simply a club with which to beat up on the GOP and conservatives. As Slu notes, Milbank wasn't always such a fan of Newt or the old GOP.

Hackery, thy name is Millbank.

Newt is a clueless dope.

He had to go on with David Cocksucker Gregory and show that he's the smartest man in the room.

7 He's burnt toast anyway. Newt just eroded a good portion of the support that was starting to filter back. What's that phrase again? Oh yeah. it's over.

Maybe he should start thinking about another book.

12 Meh, I'd say Newt staying in and sucking votes from another RINO to let a conservative win the nomination could be a good thing but when R's sling too much mud in the primaries it helps the Ds *cough* Norton heavily edited clips to attck Buck *cough.

18 Just thought I should tell you that prior to this latest fiasco,  Gingrich was announced on a 3-person education symposium panel with Arne Duncan and AL SHARPTON.

Even without the Ryan attack,  that goes to show he shouldn't be considered as a candidate.  The only place any GOP member should agree to appear with Al Sharpton is in a courtroom,  with Sharpton as the defendant and said GOP person on the jury.

Posted by: Miss Marple at May 18, 2011 06:04 AM (Fo83G)

19 And his Reagan nostalgia is insulting. Reagan had a gift for communicating. Newt has a gift for bullshitting, and then exposing what he was purporting to be true really was bullshit.

Oh, and Jane, thank you so much for the well-wishes on the ONT. That was very sweet. Looks like I won't be leaving until the middle of June now due to a paperwork delay by the state department. At least I won't be on a plane when the world ends on May 21st. So I got that going for me, which is nice.

83 Newt summed up what and who he is with the phrase 'Right-wing social engineering', when referring to a program that is truly left-wing social engineering.

In his opinion, attemping to undo or change anything that has ever been done by the left-wing must mean it is right-wing social engineering. I guess you could say that Newt is a 'conservative' after. He just wants to 'conserve' the wrong shit.

If all we're going to have in office is a Republican that behaves as a democrat, then why not just vote the Democrat in and let him eat the inevitable shit sandwich that would happen under either?

Newt has always been, to me, the epitome of the "which way is the wind blowing" politician.  In that respect I think he's worse than Romney, because I at least believe that Romney has a set of political beliefs and values that are fairly steady.  I don't necessarily share them all, and he changes his outward support of them by the hour like a snake shedding its skin, but at least he HAS them.  Newt, on the other hand, has all the moral and ideological steadfastness of an oil slick.  There is absolutely nothing there that can't be exchanged in favor of what he sees as politically expedient.  It's a testament to his current tone deafness that he seems to think belittling Ryan's fiscal plan was the politically prescient thing to do.  Walking it back now is utterly useless.  He not only showed himself to be politically tone deaf, but he came out looking just plain stupid.  He was already damaged goods; now he's not just damaged, but toxic. 

Get out of the race, Newt. You're done.

While I don't give a hoot for Newt (you can steal that), I think he is smart enough to realize that when an enemy comes to your aid while you are attacking your own, it really isn't help they are offering. *stab*

Make him take his shoes off and leave them and his luggage outside, wrapped in trashbag (spray Lysol in it) for 48 hours.  It kills bed bugs.  We did this with hubby's stuff a few weeks ago and found three at the bottom of the bag (dead).

His suitcase picked them up (our guess) while in the luggage thing in the plane (his hotel was bug free).

That's a fine point to be made, and if that had been what Noot said, I don't think there would be this level of outrageous outrage.  But he didn't end there.  He handed the left a whole bunch of talking points about how supposedly evil the Ryan budget is.  That's the idiotic part.

Bit of history - it was the snakes invading the high ground during the monsoon that broke Alexander's army. After one monsoon the troops demanded to get the hell out of India. Alexander listened.

226 Newt's so sorry that his spokesman couldn't resist saying the following:

“Medicare is going to be part of the 2012 campaign, one way or another, and Newt would like to help the Republicans design a winning plan that the country will support,” Tyler continued. 'If you try to impose it on the country, you’ll pay a huge political price, you’ll be out of power and you won’t get it done.'

In a sign that Gingrich plans no retreat, Tyler added: 'Newt Gingrich has a record of achievement on large-scale, historic change. When he offers advice on Medicare reform, I’d listen to him. And part of that advice is: You need a political plan to go along with your policy plan, so that you can convince the country that where you want to take them is where they want to go.'”

I agree completely that WaPo and others will go after any GOP candidate right now and in the future to smear their name. However, in this case, they are doing us a favor, as, yes, Newt mapped his future with Pelosi.

271 When it became obvious that Obama had no intention of "winning" or any other valid strategy I am surprised they didn't pull out then. We are king American troops now strictly for Obama PR.

I wonder why the Brits don't want to stay committed in Afghanistan? Did someone break our special relationship with the Brits? I hear Bibi is coming to town, are their any busts of special Jews in the WH that need removing?

275 Brits don't want to be the bagholders on Afghanistan. US will be out by next summer. Count on it.

277 The real Gingrich sin in this episode is dissing Ryan's plan while offering nothing of his own except a "national conversation". I've had enough of that bullshit from Obama, you pompous adulterer.

281 Newt could raise 1 billion dollars for the RNC if he would be used in a dunking chair over a huge vat of burning shit.

283 I actually did feel sorry for The Newt today when I saw the video of the gay glitter throw while he and his wife were signing books. He handled it a lot better than I would have. What jerks liberals are to do this kind of crap (like pie throwing).

289 oh, did any one see O'Riely last night?  They showed an irate conservative from Iowa tell him "why dony you just go away before you make your self into a total fool?"  Thats how I feel about him now.  Thanks Newt, you did a great job in the 90's but when you blast the bravest politician in DC, and probably the smartest and its not Obama, its all over.  Go home and write a new book or make a movie

he did a great job until we got what we asked for and then he never actually ENFORCED the Contract with America. QWe gat the power and we sat on our hands. So, no, that is NOT a great job.

291 Newt is toast.

"Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and howlet's wing,--
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble."

296 It's a small take-away, but the surprise at the hostility on "Meet the Press Vultures" is a reminder that we're not just the stupid party, we're the "Too catastrophically stupid to know that the enemy will fight you" party.

People, the MBM is the Goddamned enemy, treat them like it.

297 Oh, my, god-- this level of pathologically narcissistic, delusional and deceptive (yet pathetically transparent) doublespeak, this laughable geyser of bullshit, may actually surpass Obama's. This is oceans-stop-rising caliber. Found at the Corner:

'Gingrich spokesman Rick Tyler slams the media coverage of Newt Gingrich in the aftermath of his remarks about Paul RyanÂ’s medicare plan and the individual mandate. His statement to the Huffington Post:

"The literati sent out their minions to do their bidding. Washington cannot tolerate threats from outsiders who might disrupt their comfortable world. The firefight started when the cowardly sensed weakness. They fired timidly at first, then the sheep not wanting to be dropped from the establishmentÂ’s cocktail party invite list unloaded their entire clip, firing without taking aim their distortions and falsehoods. Now they are left exposed by their bylines and handles. But surely they had killed him off. This is the way it always worked. A lesser person could not have survived the first few minutes of the onslaught. But out of the billowing smoke and dust of tweets and trivia emerged Gingrich, once again ready to lead those who wonÂ’t be intimated by the political elite and are ready to take on the challenges America faces."

I'm speechless.
