He can't even say what he did. look it up, evil one.

Gingrich said he advised them but didn't lobby. As far as I know, there is zero evidence to refute that.

You're the one asserting Gingrich stole $1.6 million. Common sense suggests that the burden of proof is on you to support your claim, not on me to refute it. Sorry that I pointed out that you made a baseless accusation, but it's not my fault you're in that habit.

No he did. Newt states clearly that he identified all the structural deficiencies in the organization and that had they only listened to him everything would have been OK.

Of course, Freddie says that's a bunch of horse #^&#^&#^&#^&.

I know if I paid someone 1.6 Million dollars for advice I'd at least expect some written report. Hell even a PPT should suffice.

What did he exactly do again?

Freddie Mac Seeks $6 Billion Bailout After Worst Quarterly Loss This Year

11/3/11

Mortgage finance giant Freddie Mac said on Thursday it will seek an additional $6 billion from U.S. taxpayers following its worst quarterly loss this year.

Freddie Mac has now drawn $72.2 billion from the government since it was taken over at the height of the financial crisis in September 2008.

Its a shame none of our canidates are ellectable, including our Commander in Cheat! Some ppl will hold onto this ethics, or lack of, but I dont know many Americans, or Politicians who havnt stole, or cheated the tax payer! I have family that work for the State, and Federal GOV., and always lie on there travel, and lodging forms,lol. Newt is no different than the average American home, father, or provider!
