Newt Gingrich didn't pay for his own college education but the 2012 Republican Presidential candidate believes students today should get jobs and pay their own way. Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur break it down on The Young Turks.

(47,675 posts)1. My eldest works THREE part time jobs. She got scholarships. She still has loans, but not much.
She's worked her ass off her entire life and she's only 20. She funded her trip to Hungary for this semester on her own (sister college). Without academic scholarships and grants (such as Pell), she wouldn't even be in college. FUCK YOU NEWT! People with more money than they know what to do with it simply don't have a clue what normal people go through. Oh, and she got "highest honors" on the Deans List last semester.
And Newt, my wife's prettier than yours. Your other two were prettier than her too. Pull your head out of your ass, dude.
