Miller, a Virginia businesswoman and sometime Republican candidate for local office, had gone to every Tea Party event and town hall meeting that she could get into this year. Every time, she'd turned on her camera and recorded a short on-the-scene video editorial about what was at stake. "I'm asking for Obama and the Democratic-controlled Congress to return our money," she said in an April 15 video.

She had a bone to pick with Gingrich..

It's shocking when Newt Gingrich represents the center of the Republican Party. It emphasizes just how whacky are the Palin right.

Based on his warped character and prior shameful behavior would he be running on the 'Cut and Run' or the 'We Throw People with Cancer Under the Bus' ticket? It's important to know these things.

The teabaggers so hate the government, they are only interested in electing people who promise not to govern, but to dismantle.

So, Newt, how do you like your harvest? This is the result of the seeds you sowed.

Everyone else has been laughing for years.

They are conserving things like this:
Let's use the CIA FACTBOOK, a very "conservative" source of information.

Infant Motality Rate:

Out of 224 nations, the US is 180 with a death rate of 6.26 deaths per live birth (US does not count stillborns as livebirths). Cuba does better than us, as does a number of nations considered third world.

https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2091rank.html

Life Expectancy:

Out of 224 nations, the US is 50 with a life expectancy of 78.11 years, which is behind Bosnia and Herzogovina.

That's bad if already the rightwingers laugh. He won't make it further than the primaries and I so hoped he would be flushed down in the election.
