Pelosi plans to reveal information about Gingrich 'when the time is right'

[thundley4]

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is holding back some information on Republican Newt Gingrich that could detract from his presidential campaign, according to a report published Monday.
 
“One of these days we’ll have a conversation about Newt Gingrich,” Pelosi told Talking Points Memo. “When the time is right. … I know a lot about him. I served on the investigative committee that investigated him, four of us locked in a room in an undisclosed location for a year. A thousand pages of his stuff.”

Gingrich, who served as Speaker of the House, worked with Pelosi in Congress from 1987 to 1999. Pelosi also served on the ethics committee that investigated Gingrich for tax cheating and campaign finance violations in the late ’90s.
 
Gingrich filmed an ad with then-House Speaker Pelosi in 2008 to urge action on climate change, which haunted him early in his presidential bid this year. Gingrich called the ad “probably the dumbest single thing I’ve done in recent years” last month.
 
Republicans in Congress have been slow to rally around Gingrich’s rise to front-runner status in the polls, with former GOP colleague Sen. Tom Coburn (Okla.) stating publicly over the weekend he is not “inclined to be a supporter” of Gingrich due to that past experience.

  The Hill

Either she is bluffing to hurt his poll numbers, or she will wait and see if he wins the nomination.

Pelosi is a disgusting and vile ****.

[DumbAss Tanker]

It's a two-edged sword; if it was so damning, why didn't she and her fellows in that witch-hunt report out whatever horrible misdeeds they uncovered?  Were they slacking off at their jobs, or is she just talking smack now based on having privileged access to his records back then, even though they didn't find anything juicy in them then?

[Gina]

She really needs to go. 

[thundley4]

She really needs to go. 

She does look constipated, doesn't she.

Have we noticed the only one the left isn't attacking is Romney? Looks like he is their choice for our next presidential candidate. They knocked Perry down then went after Cain...Now that Newt is in the lead it is his turn.....

I am really getting sick of the attacks to be honest. No one treated dumbass like this did they?   

[Minky]

That information wasn't released back then because they wanted to wait until it could be used when it would be most beneficial to their cause.

I admittedly would've done the same thing.

For all we know about Newt now, how damaging could it be....unless he paid to have a baby aborted or something.

WHEN he received endorsements from people like Louis Farrakhan, Mummar Kadaffi and Hugo Chavez,  it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN it was pointed out that he was a total newcomer and had absolutely no experience at anything except community organizing, it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN he chose friends and acquaintances such as Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn who were revolutionary radicals, it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN his voting record in the Illinois Senate and in the U.S. Senate indicated an absentee senator, it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN he refused to wear a flag lapel pin and did so only after a public outcry, it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN people started treating him as a Messiah and children in schools were taught to sing his praises, it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN he stood with his hands over his groin area for the playing of the National Anthem and Pledge of Allegiance, it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN he surrounded himself in the White House with advisors who were pro-gun control, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual marriage and wanting to curtail freedom of speech to silence the opposition, it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN his czars favored sex education in kindergarten, including homosexual indoctrination, it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN his personal background was either scrubbed or hidden and nothing could be found about him,  it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN he had an association in Chicago with Tony Rezko–a man of questionable character and who is now in prison and had helped Obama to a sweet deal on the purchase of his home– it didn’t seem to matter.

WHEN it became known that George Soros, a multi-billionaire Marxist, spent a ton of money to get him elected,  it didn’t seem to matter.

There are more pressing issues, damning issues, egregious issues that trouble the MSM to the point of obsession -

-Did Sarah Palin wear a windbreaker with the name of her husband’s dog sled team on it?

- Was Newt callous when he divorced his wife?

- Did Rick Perry’s family attend a summer campsite that once had a racist word written on a rock?

- Did Michelle Bachmann “get sloppy” with some trivial historical dates?

- Did Donald Trump raise his voice and curse at a luncheon?

- Did Sarah Palin give birth to Trig?

- Does Herman Cain have a wandering eye?

- Is Michelle Bachmann’s husband a repressed homosexual?

- Did Herman Cain pause too long before answering a question about Libya?

- Does Mitt Romney wear Magic Underwear?

THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT MATTER TO A NATION!

The MSM did nothing to vet Obama, in fact they purposefully ignored things that would have been front page/ 24/7 news if he had been a conservative.

[thundley4]

Newt's response:

First of all I’d like to thank Speaker Pelosi for what I regard as an early Christmas gift. If she’s suggesting she’s gonna use material she developed while she was on the ethics committee, that is a fundamental violation of the rules of the House and I would hope members would immediately file charges against her the second she does it.

Nah, they hated his guts, to the bottom their hypothetically-granted souls.  If they had had anything they could have stuck in him and twisted back then, they absolutely would have.

[ironhorsedriver]

It takes a lot of time to make crap up. The MSM will not investigate, and boom, Newt has been Cained.

[Texacon]

Gingrich, who served as Speaker of the House, worked with Pelosi in Congress from 1987 to 1999. Pelosi also served on the ethics committee that investigated Gingrich for tax cheating and campaign finance violations in the late ’90s.

Things I've learned from the O'bama administration;

Tax Cheating isn't a bad thing.  As a matter of fact if you are a tax cheat you get a better paying government job.

Pelosi Not Sitting on Trove of Gingrich Secrets

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi now says she is not sitting on a trove of opposition research on former House Speaker-turned-GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich.

But this afternoon, Pelosi’s spokesman, Drew Hammill, suggested that her comments have been misconstrued beyond the leader’s intent.

“Leader Pelosi was clearly referring to the extensive amount of information that is in the public record, including the comprehensive committee report with which the public may not be fully aware,” Hammill wrote in a statement.

ABC News

Maybe Nancy was having a "senior" moment.

ABC News

Maybe Nancy was having a "senior" moment.

Or Nancy was worried about what might happen to her if she spouted off like Newt said above. Besides, she did not sound like she was talking about public knowledge.

[Chris_]

It sure sounds like she shoved both feet in her mouth on that one.

[GOP Congress]

Actually, I believe that Pelosi is waiting for the right moment. She's just been one of the few dems who at least comes out and SAYS how they plan on coming out with the most opportunistic time to smear her opponent. Read my smear post.

[NHSparky]

That woman has put her foot in her mouth so many times, she's shitting her own toes.

[docstew]

First of all I’d like to thank Speaker Pelosi for what I regard as an early Christmas gift. If she’s suggesting she’s gonna use material she developed while she was on the ethics committee, that is a fundamental violation of the rules of the House and I would hope members would immediately file charges against her the second she does it.

Why should the members of the HOR have to wait to file the ethics complaints? To me, her statement constitutes a threat of action and implies that she has "dirt" on Newt. Considering that the so-called dirt came from a protected source, shouldn't implying that it exists be enough to warrant a complaint? Further, do members of the ethics committees sign non-disclosure agreements? Could someone consider this to be a violation of an NDA?

"I served on the investigative committee that investigated him, four of us locked in a room in an undisclosed location for a year. A thousand pages of his stuff"

Things discovered in a locked room in an undisclosed location doesn't sound to me like public knowledge to me

Ya think this botoxed skank would be able to withstand that level of scrutiny?

Yeah, me neither.

Not that the media would bother doing so, they reserve that for Repukes.
