The rise of Newt Gingrich as a very possible and I would say probable nominee of the Republican Party tells us many things. In a sentence: just about everything we've been spoon fed about and by the Republican Party over the last three years is little more than one heaping, steaming pile of shit.

It means that there is NO split between the so-called Republican Establishment and the Tea Party. The Tea Party is the Republican Establishment.

Likewise, as Newt is now the favorites of the GOP/Tea Party, it means that every excuse, apologia and rationale for the Tea Party has been dead wrong.

The Tea Party hates insiders? But the Tea Party is now backing a former House Speaker whose entire commercial-political enterprise has been based in Washington for the last 25 years.

The Tea Party is for clean government? Gingrich was charged with nearly three dozen ethical violations as Speaker, fined $300,000 and was forced out of his post by the rank and file of his own party.

The Tea Party hates hypocritical pols and prefers candidates of high personal integrity? Newt is a serial philanderer whose divorce request posed to his cancer-stricken wife is now legend.

The Tea Party shuns big-spending celebrities and stands for fiscal austerity and prudence? New apparently spent his disposable income running up half-million dollar tabs with the most elite jewelry store in the world. More to the point, he has constructed a successful multi-million dollar merchandising empire that would be the envy of any huckster televangelist. Six figure speaking fees, videos, bullshit books, posters and CD's.  His notorious K Street-based scam based on blast-faxing businesses and offering them Newt-signed certificates for a $5000 fee now owes $20,000 in back rent, has closed its doors and is the target of eviction from its landlord.

The Tea Party hates lobbyists? Newt pocketed almost $2 million front for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac on Capitol Hill while his own front groups made many more millions in lobbying.

The Tea Party shuns social issues and is concerned over solely economic issues? Newt has played every social conservative card in the deck and most recently has retooted his racist dog whistle about putting ghetto kids to work as janitors (if not put into orphanages as he once prescribed).  He has climbed up the ass the overtly xenophobic birther-in-chief, NBC clown, banruptcy artist and all-around sonofabitch, Donald Trump.

Truth is, Newt Gingrich is the perfect and most appropriate candidate for the modern Republican Party.  There is no search for any real alternatives to the policies of Barack Obama. There is a search, instead, to reside in the alternative universe the Republicans have constructed for themselves. Nominating the mephistophelean Gingrich would be the way to most vigorously endorse the hurricane of propaganda that has passed for Republican discourse for the last 4 years. Nominating Newt would mean that Obama REALLY is a socialist. That Obama really embodies the horrid "anti-colonial" ethic of Kenyan Mau-Maus. That Obamacare is really a Soviet-like plan. That the oppressors in current America are the lazy and un-deserving poor (and some unionized teachers and firemen) and that the truly persecuted among us are tax-paying White Men, especially those preyed-upon "job creator" multi-millionaires  whom Gingrich has relentlessly and loyally served.

Newt is the candidate of blind rage and revenge. He's perfect.

He also guarantees the re-election of Barack Obama.
