14. Newtie, you got some 'splainin' to do...
Let us make a wild-ass assumption and pretend Newt Gingrich gets elected president, and he gets enough Repukes in both houses of Congress to pound his agenda through.

The current Republican agenda is to expand the Drug War, expand the Terror War and outlaw abortion. If Newt gets in there he'll probably put Mule Fucker Horsley in charge of cleaning out the abortionists, and Mule Fucker will have the Constitution amended to allow an exception to our rule against ex post facto laws so he can charge anyone who's ever had or performed an abortion with murder.

This is the thing: All three of these programs are, or would be, extremely expensive and the Republicans want to make them larger and more expensive. How in hell does this jive with the Republican desire to cut taxes to nothing?
