piffles and pissants

“ ” Michael Savage is pretty much spot-on in this vintage rant.  I like Savage, but he does suffer from the "looking for anti-antisemitism" disease that's every bit as annoying as the "looking for racism" virus that afflicts so many Liberals.  The video link appeared in a comment about Ann Coulter endorsing Romney.  She also dissed Newt at the same time.  Early in the week El-jefe sent me a link to an American Spectator piece, "Is Newt Gingrich America's Churchill." No, he is not, IMO.  I loved Newt for his role in ending 40 years of Democratic terror (for a while).  But I see him as a transitional character, more Patrick Henry than George Washington, and one with serious character flaws.  I addressed one flaw in a post 10 years ago (A strange comeuppance), about his treatment of  Christina  Jefferies*.  Newt had appointed her as House Historian, only to throw her under the bus after Democrats - filthy Democrats - called her a Jew hater. I was shocked, disappointed, and worried about his character.  During the same time, Newt, after it was discovered that a few million $imoleons were missing from the House operating fund, announced that he would let it slide, in an effort at appeasement.  I don't forget this kind of thing.  I disagree with a few  of Ann Coulter's stands, but I have never questioned her character. She wants Romney?  Fine.  Since Palin bailed, and Cain appears to have been pressed and folded,  it doesn't matter to me.  We're in the sh_t.  But that's just me.  * I later received a kind note from Christina  Jefferies
