Gingrich does a flip flop!

[(Hidden)]

It's true what they say.  Conservatism is a mental disorder.  Once again it is proven what a bunch of perverts Republicans are.  In the 90's these people were obsessed with who Bill Clinton was canoodling in the Oval Office but they are perfectly willing to look the other way when it comes to Russian collusion.

"Technically, the president of the United States cannot obstruct justice,'" he said, adding, "If he wants to fire the FBI director, all he has to do is fire him."

But as House speaker in 1998, Gingrich argued the opposite point. As reported by the The Times and other news outlets at the time, when referring to the investigation into President Clinton after his repeated denials of having an affair with Monica Lewinsky, Gingrich described Clinton's actions as "obstruction of justice."

"What you have lived through for 2.5 long years is the most systematic, deliberate obstruction-of-justice cover-up and effort to avoid the truth we have ever seen in American history," he said. Video of that statement was resurfaced in a 2011 CNN profile on him after he announced the launch of his presidential exploratory committee.

Conservatism is a mental disorder.  

   

Are you demanding that I ban you? 

Your fellow leftists said that I MUST ban those that say "liberalism is a mental disorder".     Shall I follow be unbiased and ban you to suit your side's demands?

I"m not on any side.  I'm a free agent but I won't say it again if it upsets people.

It only bothers the liberals, when it's said about liberals.   They love it when their enemies get attacked.

The article is worthy of discussion. But I can't agree with this sentiment. I think your anger is misdirected.

It's cute that you chopped off the last paragraph of that article - which turns your comment around:

Ultimately, Gingrich's House charged Clinton with obstruction of justice, as stated in Article III of the House Judiciary Committee's report that urged his impeachment: "Although, the actions of President Clinton do not have to rise to the level of violating the the federal statute regarding obstruction of justice in order to justify impeachment, some if not all of his actions clearly do."
