NEWT APPARENTLY THINKS THAT KERRY WAS UNFAIRLY ATTACKED BY THE SWIFT-BOATERS


Struggling to reverse a slide in his standing, Republican presidential contender Newt Gingrich said Sunday he'd been "Romney-boated" in Iowa and suggested his GOP rival would buy the presidency if he could. 
The sharp words against Mitt Romney, a multimillionaire many times over who is in strong contention to win Iowa, come two days before voters here weigh in on the Republican field. It was part of a stepped-up effort by Gingrich to contrast himself with Romney, and the candidate said he would adopt an even more aggressive strategy when the race moves to New Hampshire, the former Massachusetts governor's backyard. 
Gingrich's nautical attack was a reference to a 2004 TV ad campaign by a group called the "Swiftboat Veterans for Truth" that bloodied Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry. This year, Gingrich has faced an onslaught of negative TV advertisements by a group aligned with Romney. 
Asked Sunday whether he felt that he had been "swiftboated," Gingrich replied, "I feel Romney-boated."
THIS DISGUSTS AND INFURIATES ME BECAUSE KERRY WAS FAIRLY ATTACKED BY HIS FELLOW SWIFT-BOATERS BASED ON THE TRUTH AND YET THE LEFT - AND THE MEDIA OUTLETS THEY CONTROL - USE THE TERM "SWIFT-BOATING" AS IF IT MEANT ATTACKED BY LIES.

NEWT SEEMS TO AGREE WITH THE LEFT.

IT DEMONSTRATES AGAIN WHY NEWT IS UNFIT FOR THE OFFICE HE IS SEEKING: HE IS A LOOSE CANNON WHO OFTEN SPEAKS WITHOUT THINKING.
