In the past few eras of elected officials, it is doubtful that anyone has attracted more attention and been in such a public light than Newt Gingrich. After an eyewitness account by his mother calling Hilliary Clinton a bitch, a statement, which he still will neither confirm or deny, Newt just wouldn't let things settle. Then, the book deal came up. Newt announced he would refuse. the multi-million dollar advance and take only the royalties for the book to be published by a Rupert Murdoch­ owned publ~shing house. Democrats in the Congress con­ tinue to lam bast him and cry out for investigl;ltion of possible inequities. Newt lashed back, attacking the Democrats for their lack of decorum in Congress. Republicans also hinted at the fact that certain Demo­ cratic bills might not pass unless Democrats let up a little on the GOP agenda. Ah, that's fair, isn't it? Just like the high school bully getting your lunch money, the Republicans seem quite satisfied with their "Big Brother" role in the Congress now. Republicans seem to be convinced that now that they're in power, they will achieve their goals "by any means necessary." Now Newt, confident in his role as Ringleader of the Congress, has started his attacks on women.
