Remember Newt Gingrich having well over 300 ethics violations while he was Speaker of the House?  Remember him leaving Washington, Dee Cee, floating in a jug of shame juice?

Awwww…. Newt.  I knew you would come through for us.

Headline at Bloomberg:  Gingrich Tells FEC to Drop Dead

So, here’s the deal.  Even the ultra rightwing Washington Times is mortified by Gingrich’s filings with the Federal Election Commission.

As the Washington Times reported last week, the Gingrich campaign has a tendency to generalize when filing finance disclosure statements, citing, for example, more than $88,000 in reimbursements to Newt Gingrich in January for … “travel.” The expense was part of what the Times characterized as “$220,000 in mystery money” paid to top Gingrich staff. As the Los Angeles Times noted, the Gingrich-allied super-PAC Winning Our Future has also been paying very impressive fees to the long-time Gingrich aides who run the super-PAC.

And Newt’s answer to the FEC?  The same as Newt’s answer to women:  kiss my rosy bloated beeehind.

After the FEC asked Newt to itemize his expenditures because, well, you know, there’s like rules to this game, Newt’s campaign replied that the Gingrich campaign had concluded that “no further itemization is required” for the expenses and so none was forthcoming.

Rules?  Newt don’t need no stinkin’ rules.

I promise you, if you stuck a pin in Newt, he’d fly around the room backwards for three days on pure ego deflation.

Thanks to Ralph for the heads-up.
