Newt Gingrich Buys the Weirdest Things

Posted on August 2, 2011 at 2:46 pm by Bob Cesca

So we already know that Newt Gingrich — self-proclaimed fiscal conservative — buys ridiculously expensive jewelry, goes on ridiculously garish cruises, and has racked up a crapload of personal debt.

But did you know that he’s also buying fake Twitter followers?

No, I’m not making that up. Hilarious, considering how Newt bragged about the size of his cock Twitter following:

“I have six times as many Twitter followers as all the other candidates combined, but it didn’t count because if it counted I’d still be a candidate; since I can’t be a candidate that can’t count.”

National joke.

    Well, if the intent was merely to replace the Discraced Former Speaker of the House before his name, then schucks boy howdy, what a success! Now he’ll be called Laughable Failure of a 2012 Presidential Candidate who crashed and burned (laughably early) even in the Year of the Wingnut.

    Get the fuck outta here. This guy was the Republican Speaker of The House of the free world!

    The illusion of likability.

    It’s now evident Newt’s a Lonely Guy!

    I think he’s going to have to prove he has friends, now.

    “So, Newt, do you have any friends, and if so, can we meet it?”

    So, now Newt’s standing around wondering where all his campaign people went, where all the crowds went and why isn’t that bus here yet? Damned campaign credit card…musta demagnatized.

    Maybe all his “followers” can tweet their votes…

    Aren’t jokes supposed to be funny?
