Newt Gingrich's Amazon Book Reviews

lee1 writes "Newt Gingrich has written 156 book reviews on Amazon, at one point becoming ranked in the site's top 500 list. Most of the books are cheesy political thrillers, but the newly announced presidential candidate is also trying to learn about quantum physics, and shows good taste, 'strongly recommending' Richard Feynman's QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter." Gingrich is an early joiner; I'd like to see the books on the shelves of the other likely presidential candidates, too.

    Frankly the field of candidates at the GOP's disposal all look like various forms of trolls. I think the smart money is on Obama taking it again in 2012, so now's the GOP's chance to let the Tea Party fruitcakes and all those simpering cowardly Republicans who refuse to standup to the Libertarians and other even less sensible riff raff that have seized the party smash themselves against the electoral rocks next year. Once it's clear that the Tea Party won't be able to install a president, the GOP can again regain control of the situation, turn the Libertarian wing back into the useful idiots they have usually been and then find a candidate for 2016 who has a good chance of becoming President.

    Maybe the Tea Party can split off, take over the Reform Party like everyone else has and all the semi-sentient 'tards that make up the movement can stop infecting mainstream politics with the racist moronic gibberish they've been spouting.

    When the Tea Party actually has any policies beyond "Cut taxes and get that foreign Muslim-sounding Nigger out of office", you let me know.

    I think what'll happen is Obama will get the Dem nomination again, but the Republican and swing voters will hate him because of the economy and other things

    By "other things" I assume you mean the amount of melanin in his skin, which for most Republicans, is much more important than the state of the economy.

    It's going to look a whole lot like Germany in the 30s.

    "Going to"?
