The proposals were rather popular, after all.<br /><br />The budget debate was another ball of wax. We can partially blame Newt for acting in a petty fashion about a White House snub, but that's stretching. The House of Representatives against The Senate, The President, and nearly all the Media is pretty difficult battle to win. Demonizing the Speaker for losing is a bit far-fetched. At least he fought. That's rare enough to be notable.<br /><br /> I lived through it as well. My perceptions are not in agreement with yours.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12822511906907583597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074368219201555953.post-76262434168776336682011-11-10T16:58:59.027-08:002011-11-10T16:58:59.027-08:00BTW, I lived through it too.BTW, I lived through it too.richard mcenroehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10659450906647134430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074368219201555953.post-18900080119445711042011-11-10T16:58:32.021-08:002011-11-10T16:58:32.021-08:00The videos are lies?

Newt's affair didn't get dragged into the impeachment? Which are the lies? Please itemize...<br /><br />What do I gain?
