“Callista Gingrich, was employed by the House Agriculture Committee until 2007, according to public records. She listed a ‘revolving charge account’ at Tiffany and Company in the liability section of her personal financial disclosure form for two consecutive years and indicated that it was her spouse’s debt. The liability was reported in the range of $250,001 to $500,000.” Above, Newt Gingrich’s official campaign song.
When asked by POLITICO whether Gingrich has settled this debt, and why he owed between a quarter-million and a half-million dollars to a jeweler, Rick Tyler, Gingrich’s spokesman, declined to comment.
“No comment,” he said in an email.
We may have to add a new definition to the term “whore diamonds.” That’s one costly affair. [Politico]

Damn, is he buying that pasty white bitch diamonds-by-the-yard or something? Yeah, this reflects America's values. Good luck with that, Newt!
His wife? Please.
Perhaps future wives-to-be. Newt probably passed them out like candy to young staffers over the years. How else is a guy like that gonna get laid? Maybe she got a few baubles before they tied the knot.
Maybe not the diamonds, but certainly endless debt forever is as American as McDonald's apple "pie."
You must recall that Newt was having affairs because he is so passionate about this country. That credit line was opened so he could buy diamonds for all of us. Didn't you get some?
Yes, he is passionate about this country. "Give me poontang, or give me death!"
Nah, I didn't get my diamonds.
I think that's "Give me poontang or give me twat".
Somehow I don't see the Newter considering death as an acceptable alternative.
How many whore diamonds = one shiny forehead?
John McCain was just wonderin'
Whore diamonds has such a nice ring to it. I wonder if Newtie ran up that tab keeping Calista quiet while he was boning her all those years? If so, she went cheap. Sleeping with a fat tub of goo like Newt ought to be worth at least $1 million.
There's not enough money, booze, Quaaludes, paper bag over his head and mine, or a room dark enough to willingly have s-e-x-y time with that fat tub of goo. In other words, I'd have to be stone cold dead.
He's OK with that. Not surprisingly.
True that man, sticking body parts in dead people has been a Catholic tradition since the doubting Thomas.
WTF you expect? Alter boys don't work 24/7, ya know.
He's been asking around for your phone number so he can make the, um, arrangements.
Hey, your corpse ain't gonna screw itself.
As long as they're blood diamonds, I'm ok with it.
First Adultress has a lovely ring to it.
But she was Newt's second adultress (that we know of).
Indeed. Imagine a Newtonian Administration — a perpetual pimp and whore party.
He could invite the IMF. Heaven knows he wouldn't be hosting anyone named Common — Calista wouldn't stand for it (might steal something that came from Tiffany's).
It better be a lovely ring for $500,000.
Diamonds ~ Men's worst enemy!
And a girl's best friend.
Yeah..How do you think they became eternal enemies if it wasn't for gals' obsession with them?
When you're nothing
But a boyfriend
Dangling by a thread
Keep in mind
The bottomline
'Diamonds are a girl's best friend'
Diamonds are a whore's best friend.
Well, that goes without saying.
I prefer to think of them as the ultimate get outta the doghouse card, and hence a tool of man (See Bryant, Kobe).
Or as Ron White puts it,
Diamonds – That'll shut her up!
Though it is kind of strange that, after a rape, it's his wife who he owed the apology diamonds to. I guess it's a way to say, "Don't worry, my lawyers will find a way to call her a slut and engage in some serious victim-blaming to get me off and I'll still keep making millions."
I LOVE Ron White! He appeared at my husband's casino on our first wedding anniversary and I had front row seats. He has a great show!
Wait. Your husband has a casino? Is your married name Ensign?
Lol, no he doesn't have a casino. He's a corporate business executive over 3 casinos.
Bill Clinton will be there in July.
Tater Salad is awesome. My wife likes very few comics, but Ron cracks her up every time.
It is interesting how, like Lewis Black, he's really become a huge star at an age most road comics are finished by. I'm glad he made it through his legendary hard living phase to bring so many people a good time.
Fuck, Newt…for a sec there, I thought you were really serious about this running for Prez thing.
Be careful, everyone! You don't want to scare away all the candidates before the primary. Wouldn't you rather have a half-million dollars worth of whore diamonds as an October surprise?
Agreed. We don't want to run through all the nasty unelectable wingnuts right away. Save some for later.
They're doin' it… not us… buncha fuckin' numbskulls.
Hehe.
Baby needs either dick or diamonds and the Salamander is long past the dick slinging days.
I hope she dumps him for Lil Wayne. He's got ice.
Lil Wayne like him some of those white middle-aged Stepford factory seconds?
"You should get out before you make an even bigger fool of yourself." I bet Newton's heard that before.
Diamonds are a Stepford Wife's best friend.
They use them as fuel to fake orgasms.
The worst neighbors I ever had were a 50 year old guy who had run away from his wife and kids, when he was giving his new girlfriend the business they sounded like rutting hippos. When she was fucking her other lays who came by during the day, she did not make a sound.
Explains that sparkle in her eyes.
Believe it or not, I just this minute received a spam email "Buy This Collectible Tiffany Money Clip and Save". I guess Callista got it, too.
She's a plasticene porter.
Actually, the glazed over eyes are the result of copious amounts of horse tranquilizers.
isn't this the broad who blows the French Horn in the Fairfax City Brass band? and those are the lips she kisses her kids with…
When reached by telephone, Pierre Marteaux Horn of the Fairfax City Brass band had no comment.
No kids yet. It's a miracle for a Catholic girl. Surprised?
Anno Domini means something else entirely to the former Ms. Bisek.
Eww, she has to eat another shit gingrich.
Only 24,951 to go.
A shit gingrich. That's the one thing the girls at the dungeon won't do.
You need to higher a better dungeon master, heard the CIA has had a few recently retire.
Newt's former wife Marianne stated in an Esquire article that Newt told her the following before the divorced was finalized:
"She was a Jaguar and all he wanted was a Chevrolet. I can't handle a Jaguar right now. All I want is a Chevrolet."
Stay classy Newt. And be sure to be the Presidental candidate focused on family values you shit stain.
Is Marianne the second wife, the one with MS or the first wife, the one with cancer? I'm blissfully ignorant of the details of this asshole's life.
I guess she's a Chevy with gold spinner wheels and diamond-encrusted bumpers.
Policeman taps the shades…
'Is that a Chevy '69?'
How bizarre
How bizarre
How bizarre
so what, callista is chevy cobalt?
also: what a self serving prick.
Newt's getting better mileage with his new Chevy Calista.
(Man, and my wife got pissed off when I compared her to Miata.)
Because you like to drive her with the top down?
And his foot on the floor.
Where you referring to her tuned exhaust?
Mostly the thick pile carpet.
No, what I had in mind was the sporty, compact body, with subtle but pleasing curves, low maintenance costs, reliability, goes just fast enough to keep things interesting…
He's going to eventually end up with a 1972 ford pinto or a 1975 gremlin. Grinch in a Gremlin, I like that.
He'll have to rely on a rented Escort before too long.
Must be all the breakfasts.
PRAYER breakfasts, I trust.
"Something something if I have to live within my means, why can't the government something something"
On the bright side -and unlike Newt's wives- diamonds are forever…
"On the bright and shiny side…"
Fixed.
Whore diamonds…because buying gold is so 2010.
Glenn Beck has yet another reason to go off on Newtie.
I'll say. Just ask Warren Buffett.
Whore diamonds: when money just isn't enough.
You can't expect Newt to wear nipple rings from some hippie jeweler, can you?
The image would cause dead maggots to wake up and gag.
Gingrich is a treasure trove all right…a treasure trove of comedy!
Lizard diamonds!
What's missing is a mandate that requires people to buy things from Tiffany's. If you don't have your own jewelry, you are required to accept the Tiffany's jewelry and a bill will be mailed to you. This is called the public option.
Which you support on Saturday, oppose on Sunday, walk back on Monday. Rinse repeat.
Would't that be the Pubic Option in this case? If so I'm for it.
Thank goodness I have a private jeweler who I'm satisfied with, but I'm only using him for catastrophic coverage.
pubic option, please.
Some Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Others, like Newt, prefer them with BAT SHIT CRAZY EYES!!!
You would think that with all those diamonds she would know what HARD is supposed to really feel like and dump Newtie.
On Moh's scale of mineral hardness, Newt rates lower than talc.
Wear that blue dress like a man, bitch!
Tiffany & Company? How very conservative.
Tiffany & Co.? How very conservative.
Clearly, farm subsidies have gotten out of hand.
Did her 'revolving charge account' projectile vomit green-pea mush into the priest's face?
if this is Newt's official campaign song then what is Obama's ?
Theme from Shaft. He's a baaaaaaad…….. "Shut your mouth!"
No comment=Why can't you be moar like Faux Noose.
Wow, he Reaally loves his country.
Looking at Newt's gut, I think he spent all that money at Tiffany's on their breakfasts.
Really. Newt's preferred "huckleberry friend" is obviously some sort of pie.
Eating the lamps.
"Didn't I tell you this was a lovely place?"
Engraving on the ring: "To whom it may concern"
Newt's big campaign platform will be bringing back powdered wigs — I mean, what goes better with diamonds?
Apartheid?
The blood of a poverty-stricken African?
A ratty pink collar with fake gems would have worked just as well on that woman who looks just like an albino kitty with leukemia on an overdose of catnip.
OMG, she has leukemia? Newt bails in 3… 2… 1…
$250,000 (the low end of the debt) is more than my damn house is worth…and we're not even upside down on it. WTF has Newty been doing to get that kind of credit limit ANYWHERE?
I hope those diamonds keep Callista warm and happy when she looks over & sees Newt in his boxers, black socks and stained wife-beater without his dentures in.
You know……she might just be buying diamonds for herself every time Newt gets blown by a possible future Mrs Gingrich. The way women go down on him, you'd think his penis dispensed champagne and caviar.
I wonder if she can hear his dentures clack when he goes down on her, assuming he does go down on her.
Now, Callista, take the diamonds and clear out now, girlfriend. Otherwise you'll have to look at Newt for the rest of your life. Go buy some more Botox. Enjoy.
I can't believe Callista Flockhart has sunk so low.
dunno. might be a step up from Harrison Ford. That bastard probably wouldn't buy you diamonds.
I can't believe that there are actually two women with that name.
Tiffany's, nothing bad can happen to you there
Movie pitch: Zeppelin full o' Republican pretenders, lightning storm, one of 'em is murdered during particularly loud thunderclap, drawing-room interrogation of suspects by Chicago's Pat Fitzgerald, , zep slips moorings, all float away, betimes yammering endlessly about the food-stamp preznit.
Fade to white. Extremely white, except for Mr. Cain.
Cain is last seen laughing and running from mooring with shears…
To paraphrase Robert Duvall in Network, You've got one big fat big-titted hit on your hands!
Man, 500k is a whole lot of Happy Meals, or one diamond-encrusted French Horn, with silk-lined case and little wheelies so poor Newt won't strain himself while dragging it around for Callista.
Good thinking. Given that Newt is likely to leave Callista Gingrich once she has cancer and is in the hospital, she ought to build up a treasure trove of diamonds in the meantime.
I don't think robots can get cancer.
aka marriage insurance.
Crazy girls just seem to find out early
How to open doors with just a tongue
A rich fat man
And she won't have to worry
She'll wear all diamonds and go in style
Late at night a big old house gets boring
I guess ev'ry form of whoring has its price
And it breaks her heart to think her love is
Only given to a man whose face is stuffed with food
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an cancer patient who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the expensive side of town
You can't hide your diamond buys
And your smile is a crazy disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your diamond buys
This possibly the most complicated Eagles parody I've ever seen. Salute. Although I think you should have worked "thighs" in there somewhere.
She has thighs?
Christine O'Donnell? I didn't know you posted here.
Huh. Who would have thought that doughy, pasty motherfucker had game? Then again, given the women he hit…….
Hey, those Stepford (TM) Callista 2000 models don't come cheap, ya know.
I'm thinking he made gem trails ending at his pale, sweaty and doughy groin, and she played the dutiful diamond mine worker who needed the job.
Once again, I hate my imagination.
I'm not very fond of it either right now.
Now that Newt's Tiffany trail has all but dried-up, it looks like he's gonna have to start dishin' out "Diamond Dicks" like the rest of us Poors.
My only revolving credit account is for $300 at Lane Bryant. Fuck Newt Gingrich.
Is this why Newt has to shit out those ill-conceived historical fiction books? To pay for shiny rocks for a vacant woman?
Yes. And you'd think he'd try harder.
She's not always vacant. I'd imagine $250K in jewelry buys him some occupancy privileges.
does it surprise anyone that Newt might have had to pay for every pearl necklace he gave?
i should write something snarky about evil bringing many rewards, but honest to god, this just depressing.
Why? Here is a guy who has to constantly bust his giant fat ass to keep his pwecious wfiey in the lifestyle she's grown accustomed to. I'll bet she calculates how much each blow job is going to cost him in Carats meanwhile he lives in utter fear she'll leave him for a man of more means. I don't know about you, but I'm glad I don't live that way. Sure he "lives" in luxury, but it's more of a cage of massive debt when you think about it.
Is this the same revolving account he gets his wives from?
"Newt Gingrich Is a Man of Endless Treasure"
Newt Gingrich Is a Man of Endless Measure!
Shine on, you hoary diamond!
Diamond Libel!
Oh come on people that is for little gifts for friends and a couple of key rings. Oh and some plates and a vase for her niece's wedding.
And a William and Kate teacup?
Well, it was so cute I wanted one myself but I'm getting a copy of the IUD wedding hat instead.
You just made me think of my favorite Paul Simon song:
♫She's a rich girl
She don't try to hide it
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes
He's a poor boy
Empty as a pocket
Empty as a pocket with nothing to lose
Sing ta na na
Ta na na na
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes ♫
Oh yeah, and F@#K the Newtster and the whore diamonds up his ass.
Hahahahaha…that's one expensive choir girl.
No and don't ask again.
*joy* And now, this dispatch from the
planet "Headupyourassus"Politico comment board:BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
What? Obama got more scrutiny from the mainstream media than any other candidate in my lifetime. Remember the bullshit they spread over Reverend Wright? Or the former Weatherman he kind of knew?
But… but… if you don't know that the University of Illinois at Chicago and UChicago are different institutions, you'd think they taught in different schools of the same large university! And they briefly served on the same non-profit board, even though it's quite common for two members of sufficiently large boards have LITERALLY NO INTERACTION WITH EACH OTHER AT ALL.
This clearly proves that they were BEST PALS and the former Weatherman ghost-wrote his book and also was probably his Kenyan father!
Butt hurt loser.
Soooooo Newt leaving a 1/2 Mil tab and then running out of the eatery is a hit piece? No newz here keep moving along (in my irish cop accent).
Now I've had to wade into the breach to fight the insanity. At least the Politico commenters are only about half wingnut, but the wingnuts are some insane, hive-minded ones. And I see they turned blowjob into *******.
Agreed. When are we going to see the long form live birth certificate?
yep, didn't see that coming. Resko, community organizer, Alinsky, Gangster Gov't, "present" votes…the list is endless…they've tried to attack Obama with everything and anything, and yet, RWR still calls him the "anointed one."
Running up a tab between a quarter-million and half-a million dollars at Tiffany's sure smells like ELITISM to me. This will go over big with his constiuency with their $300 revolving credit line at Sears.
And Palin settled for $150K in clothes? No jewelry! This is not going to go over well on Wasilla Main Street.
That doughy hunk of shit who thinks he is a hell of a lot smarter than he really is needs to just drop out of the race, before he makes himself look like even more of a horse's ass.
On the contrary, with Trump gone and the media finally tiring of Sarah Palin's antics, we need *someone* around to entertain us. I'm hoping the Contract with Tiffany's is only the tip of a much larger iceberg of griftitude.
Damn, coddled gubmint workers. How would they do in the private sector?
Yet it’s the Democratic Party that’s out of touch with the average American.
Hey Newt, how about a Tiffany ring for your scrotom neck? Drives the Georgia babes wild.
PHOTO EXCLUSIVE! MUST CREDIT WONKETTE!
Newt Gingrich employed a "Carat-and-Stick" approach on Callista!
PHOTO EXCLUSIVE! MUST CREDIT WONKETTE!
He is so ready to be President. I can't wait until he is swept into Office by voters who are ABSOLUTELY CRAZY!!!
Every time I see her I think of the chick from The Office with the cats.
Ha Ha! Dwight Schrute Gingrich
What's a "revolting charge account", oh, I know…
It used to be called Reaganomics.
You think shebots come cheap? You stinking neo-marxists!
I'm going to name all my lizard's children "Calista."
You have an albino lizard?
What have we here? Wonkette scoopy story 'bout "wickedness in high places"! I am just gobsmacked, wowsersandall. What will tomorrow bring, hm?
Troll's hittin on you. Seriously, I didn't think they'd work for Newtie given his recent lashing of Paul Ryan. I pulled you back from 0.
While we're on the subject of Newt, it should be mentioned that those stories of him serving divorce papers on his first wife while she was lying in a hospital bed after cancer surgery are totally false.
New evidence shows she was clearly sitting up at the time.
The cheap bastard made her charge the jewelry he "gave" her on a credit card in her own name? So that when she finds out he's cheating and dumps him, that debt is hers? Klassy, Newt.
I want to see the receipts.
This is truly the weakest Republican presidential field since 1996. And before that, since the 1940s.
Boy, things have really gone downhill for Calista since Ally McBeal ended, huh?
Used to be a time when giving a woman a Pearl Necklace would suffice.
Just ask Clinton.
I don't TAKE money from the government, I MAKES money from the government, bitches!
Now we know why he needed to sell all those plaques for $5000 to topless bars.
must have been one helleva a blow job
if theres a bj in this house there damn well better be a diamond in end
Now Newt glitters like a diamond: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/politics/20...
It won't be really fun till we can tee up the Great White Grifter.
It's been a while since we had a real slut as First Lady.
Yeah, Laura Bush had the Joker rictus thing goin' on, but she was clearly self-medicating, and no one sober would ever fuck her.
Calista's vajeje probably has stored up inside it the DNA from every one of the half-dozen straight Refucks left in Congress. Why do I keep thinking of the movie "Brazil"?
Remember what put Newt on the front page all those years ago? The terrible *scandal* of Congressional *check kiting*. Months later it turned out he had a few checks covered himself. This is payback for that and all the rest of his bullshit over the years.
Why doesn't Larry Craig try for a run next?
Larry is busy with a ménage-a-trois with Newtie and Lindsey Graham. It's what they call a double-wide triple white.
Also known as a "Krystal Grab-bag".
Everything slides right in.
Two days ago, this bottom-feeder was calling Obama the food-stamp president. And now, bam! Trump? Bam. Please, please Sarah. Step up to the table for your bowl of instant karma.
Way to ruin a great song, Wonkette… now I'm picturing Newt buck naked, banging on the bathroom floor. DO NOT WANT
That for him and what for them? What did he have for whatfers?
Callista in the sky with diamonds, indeed. Bitch looks in a perpetual state of euphoria, as if she's just caught scent of the most wonderful odor ever. Lobatomy-incuded ecstasy is bliss.
More likely, she's a Lizard Person. Her facial expressions look downright forced/unnatural, as if her ill-fitting skin is stretched over a hard exoskeleton.
No ice – No dice.
Personally, I thought it was great the way "real conservatives" went after Ole Newt for his rather bland comments about the Paul Ryan budget proposal. These right wing nutz are certainly willing to eat their own (can't say "young"!).
A bruising Republican primary fight is just the ticket for Mr. Obama. Like a Derby where every other horse gets stuck in the starting gate, or a scrum at the first turn, and the favorite wins by a mile.
