Title: Christmas Revisited
Post by: Ed W on December 31, 2011, 08:53:06 AM
My grandmother celebrated what she called "Russian Christmas" in January.  If I recall right, it's officially the Feast of the Epiphany and it falls on January 6th.  It's the twelfth day after Christmas.

But here's an early Russian Christmas present for all of us.  What can I say, really, because this is a gift that just keeps on giving!

Newt Gingrich said that former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin would be among the candidates that he would consider when considering a potential running mate, adding that the former GOP vice presidential nominee would be an ideal candidate for secretary of Energy.

That's a great big, overloaded crazy train hurtling downhill without brakes.

I can only guess that Guido's heart is going pitter-pat.

Newt really likes the women.

I didn't consider that aspect, Michael.  What would happen if he were elected, divorced his present spouse, and married his vice-president?  In a constitutional sense, that would be called 'icky.'

That'd be "icky" in any sense.

"I want to buy your girls...your women!"

Gingrich always seems to have his donkey resting on the self-destruct button.
