Politics: Newt Gingrich says something that makes us wince
- What if [Obama] is so outside our comprehension, that only if you understand Kenyan, anti-colonial behavior, can you begin to piece together [his actions]? That is the most accurate, predictive model for his behavior.
- Newt Gingrich • Saying something so insane that we don’t even understand the point he was going for. “Kenyan, anti-colonial behavior”? How? What is he doing that you have to bring his ethnicity into the fold? Dave Weigel’s headline for this nugget, which he posted over the weekend, is “What Was Newt Gingrich Talking About?” We don’t think anyone can figure it out. Robert Gibbs tries, but he doesn’t get all the way there. source
