He should go to prison.

He should go to prison, but he's a politician...he'll get his hand whacked with a ruler.

 

[Two Thumbs]

He should go to prison.

Since some of his crimes happened out of country he should do federal time.

He can look on the bright side;

He still gets free HC paid for by the taxpayers.

Rangel, he is 81, he should go to the old folks home, we should of put grandpa to bed ten years ago.

I bet if the bring in that nun that was frisked by the TSA, he'd be sorry.

 

[blastoff]

IF he's telling the truth they should kick his fat ass out just for being that stupid.

But no way in hell I buy his b.s. He knew damn well what he was doing was wrong but figured he was immune from the rules/laws because of his political status.

Yea this one should fall on deaf ears for sure. Him and Maxine Waters never showed any fairness or mercy when Republicans got into trouble. So why should they expect it? Waters especially is possibly the most vicious & partisan person serving in Congress with the exception of maybe Nancy Pelosi. Neither have ever shown fairness or mercy therefore they deserve none. But don't worry,they'll skate. The Democrats will let both off with a slap on the wrist. Bet on it.

Should Newt have gone to Prison too?

Should Newt have gone to Prison too?

Was he convicted of something?

 

[Soggy in NOLA]

It's all Bush's fault.

 

[Meister]

I feel that if a citizen would go to prison for a crime...then a politician that does the same crime should go to prison, also.....no matter what party he resides in. Does that answer your question, and would you be as honest?

Been a while.

What was Newt found guilty of?

We do not throw our grandparents in jail just because we did not know better.

Lets learn from our mistakes, at 60 they retire.

There is not one person so much better than the rest of us they have a right to stay in politics while wearing Depends.

 

[Claudette]

Did Gingrich break laws or just ethics??

 

[California Girl]

Any politician who does anything that an ordinary citizen would do time for, should do time. No special treatment - these people are not special.

Lying to Congress is contempt. It seems they opted for a $300,000 fine instead of jail. But he certainly could have been sent to jail.
