Newt has a lesson for Our Dear Leader
CNN has this story from Iowa. The lesson learned by Newt Gingrich is one he should pass on to Our Dear Leader.
Frank Rich says it so much better here.
The two men, who have both been mentioned as possible candidates for president in 2008, teamed up for the Governor's Charity Steer Show at the Iowa State Fair to show Black Gold, a huge black steer.It is time for Georgie to realize that "the steer" wants to get out of Iraq.
It wasn't as easy as the steer's 13-year-old owner made it look, though.
While leading Black Gold into the pavilion, the politicians and the animal had a difference of opinion on direction.
Vilsack tried to push the steer one way, but his 225-pound body had little effect.
Gingrich got a good bump from the steer and decided the smartest thing to do was stand clear and wave to the crowd.
"I figure when the steer wants to go somewhere, you get out of the way," Gingrich said.
