Poot The Pretender


Disgraced former Rethug Speaker of the House Newt "Poot" Gingrich is known for his arrogant, abrasive personality, but we didn't know he has a creative side. Think Progress notes that his rather crappy website features a photo of Poot and his Stepford wife, Calista, posed in front of what seem to be hundreds of diverse supporters. Actually, the crowd picture is a stock photo, once used -- hee hee -- by the late Sen. Ted Kennedy's website. D'oh!

Come on, Poot. You know how to get a crowd of your supporters together: start by calling for a Government shutdown, invading every Muslim country from Morocco to Indonesia, and eliminating taxes on wealthy individuals and mega-corporations. As a sweetener, call the President a foreign-born Marxist. That'll do it!
