Newt called men little piglets and said that women get infections

[demtenjeep]

"If combat means living in a ditch, females have biological problems staying in a ditch for thirty days because they get infections and they don't have upper body strength. I mean, some do, but they're relatively rare. On the other hand, men are basically little piglets, you drop them in the ditch, they roll around in it, doesn't matter, you know. These things are very real. On the other hand, if combat means being on an Aegis-class cruiser managing the computer controls for twelve ships and their rockets, a female may be again dramatically better than a male who gets very, very frustrated sitting in a chair all the time because males are biologically driven to go out and hunt giraffes."
Newt Gingrich, "Renewing American Civilization," Reinhardt College, (7 January 1995)

7. Apparently ...

... but he may need to get out to hunt giraffes?

I'm not at all sure he has the upper body strength to get out of that ditch, though.


He's either a comic genius or a complete moron.

4. Funny coming from a man

who the closest he's ever been to combat is when those kids paintballed his house.

8. Fuck! You mean I changed my socks every chance I got for nothing???

Who knew? (Now maybe Neut could explain to me why, when I ran out of dry socks, my damned feet began to disappear!)

5. The only problems I had in a foxhole were

related to the soldier who couldn't keep his hands to himself. Until I made it painfully clear that he had to.

Funny, never had any trouble from him after that.

9. I don't think I've ever hated a politician quite as much as I hate The Newt. n/t
