I don't know what Newt's hypocrisy has to do with the budget, but he was forced to RESIGN from pressure from his REPUBLICAN colleagues as well as the Dems. The bottom line: Clinton was disbarred in Arkansas for LYING about his affair when investigated and was IMPEACHED in the House - period - those are facts not hyperbole. Newt needed to go and get his "wild-penis" under control - which I hope he has - finally!
What I mean by Newt's hipocrisy, is that he was using Clinton's affair to take him down while he was cheating on his wife who was battling cancer. If Clinton was a Republican president, the GOP would have never been so interested in getting the guy to perjure himself. It was the worst kind of politics. I'd be disgusted if the Dems tried it on a Republican. It weakens the nation.
