Election 2012

Gingrich for President

Following months of deliberation after the announcement by Newt Gingrich that he would be forming an exploratory committee for seeking the Republican presidential nomination, Gingrich has decided to officially toss his hat into the ring and join the parade of nincompoopery.

WASHINGTON – Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is running for president in 2012, ending months of speculation.

The Associated Press reported Monday morning that the Georgia Republican will make the announcement Wednesday over Twitter and Facebook.

Gingrich appeared to confirm it in a tweet saying, "Be sure to watch Hannity this Wednesday at 9pm ET/8pm CT. I will be on to talk about my run for President of the United States."

Another great addition to the clown-car of stupid!

Gingrich is a figure who banks on the argument that Democrats, and particularly President Obama, are big pussies when it comes to national security. And just recently, he claimed President Obama had no idea what he is doing on foreign policy. A narrative that is now "just as dead as Bin Laden."

With that said, I welcome Newt Gingrich to the festivities. I'm sure many laughs will be had at his expense.
