    Wait do people care about Newt Gingrich's opinions (assuming these are actually his opinions)? Do people - whether conservative, liberal, or sane - value what this guy has to say?

    Ask the OP. He might be the only one who cares.

    Anybody who thinks Newt is a paragon of honesty or virtue or any other positive personal traits wasn't an adult in the mid to late 90's.

    He bears a great deal of personal responsibility for the intractable s**tshorm of partisanship that politics has mutated into in the last quarter century. One of the original "party over country" guys.

    The real story is that comrade Trump has surrounded himself with idiot spokespeople the likes of Newt, Rudy Giuliani, and Chris Christie but his supporters don't see that as a problem.

    Politifact provides citations to support that analysis. You'd be better served going through their analysis and provide evidence that they are wrong.

    Face it. Facts have a liberal bias.

    Yawn... as I said, you'd be better served going through the analysis and provide proof its wrong. Politifact provides the citations... provide your own citations proving them wrong. Until then you are simply crying...

    Like I said they pick and choose what to cover and how to cover it. How can anyone who isn't biased themselves not see this?

    Oh, don't worry, I see your bias. Its crystal clear. But still don't see you refuting anything that Politifact presented in their analysis of Newt Gingrich. In fact, none of what you posted seems clear to me. Keep trying though... maybe you will make sense next time.

    What are you asking me to explain? And it would help if you posted the entire Politifact analysis... without that the graphic isn't complete.

    why is one half true and the other one mostly true when both basically said the same thing.
