Subscribe to RSSNBC's John Boxley reports from LAS VEGAS, Nev. -- Newt Gingrich was in Las Vegas Thursday night, in support of Sharron Angle and talking jobs.
Angle addressed the crowd, taking aim at Reid, with her signature line: "He needs to take some responsibility, he says its not his fault about the economy. Man up, Harry Reid. He says there is no problem with social security. Man up. He says this war is lost, your general is dishonest, you owe us an apology. Man up, Harry Reid."
Gingrich was greeted to chants of, "2012, 2012." Gingrich replied, "Before we get to 2012, let's focus on November 2nd."
And he had some blistering remarks for the Democratic leadership.
On Reid: "The fact that senator Reid left Washington without passing a tax bill is an act of total and utter irresponsibility."
On Nancy Pelosi and her comments that food stamps stimulate the economy: "You have to live in San Francisco to believe this."
On Obama: "And its totally clear that Obama doesn't have a clue about the meaning of American exceptionalism, the nature of the Declaration of Independence or the American Constitution. Other than that he is a terrific guy."
On the White House: "The White House is surrounded by left-wing, PHD's in theoretical knowledge and people who have never created a single job and by the time they get done talking to each other; they get too tired to go out find somebody who actually created a job..."
Afterwards, Gingrich spoke to reporters, on a number of topics, including the blame game, "The economy soured under President Bush, but the economy soured after Reid and Pelosi became leaders of the Congress, the economic devastation occurred after Reid and Pelosi took over in 2007, with their policies, then Obama got in office and his policies made it worse."
His 2012 Plans? "We'll decide in February or March what we are doing. Clearly there is an opportunity to draw a contrast with a radical administration that creates a real choice for the American people about what kind of country we want to be."
On the Tea Party: "They are a force; they are a populist reform movement that represents a real desire to return to the Constitution and a real desire to return limited government. I think they are having a substantial positive influence on the whole national debate."
On Angle not speaking to the press: "I think she should have a press conference at least as often as President Obama...check how often President Obama has had real press conferences, very very seldom, less than any recent President."

Yup, the Teabaggers are a force...but not the good kind. The "force" will not be with them.
The misogynistic Repubs have no right to level charges against anyone. Angle, who supports women bearing her rapists child is the worst kind of misogynist. She is an insult to all women!
Palin and Angle, Newt....would you insist your daughter bear her (God forbid) rapists child.....Just asking?
Harry should have leveled her along with Palin who like to question manhood, but would scream bloody hell in the reverse...but he is too much of a gentleman.

How true. Larry is very soft spoken; the people of Nevada will speak for Nov 2nd. No one wants to work for less than minimum wage; Crazy Angle's proposal.
Neither will they support that crazy nut job, Angle, who will outsource jobs and use 2nd amendment remedies if things don't go her way.
She and the rest of the Wicked Women in the West have blown it with Hispanics.
Meg Whitman opened 90 offices in California. But, hired out of state workers. How is that helping unemployed Californians?
Newt needs to fact check how much of a return Food stamps give the economy.
Moody's study suggests extending unemployment benefits, increasing food stamps fastest ways to stimulate economy.
http://money.cnn.com/2008/01/29/news/economy/stimulus_analysis/index.htm
The U.S. Department of Agriculture calculates that for every $5 of food-stamp spending, there is $9.20 of total economic activity, as grocers and farmers pay their employees and suppliers, who in turn shop and pay their bills.

Maybe if Newt and his cronies would stop saying "NOPE' to programs that stimulate the economy, namely outsourcing jobs, this food stamp and unemployment environment never would have increased.
Who else isn't surprised by this?
After all that's what pre-programmed desperate tea bagger housewives do... repeat themselves... over and over an over and over and over again!
This wild Nevada ding bat is NO better than Linda Macmahon (sp?) kicking some guy in the nuts all in the name of entertainment!
Feisty
This wild Nevada ding bat is NO better than Linda Macmahon (sp?) kicking some guy in the nuts all in the name of entertainment!
The caveat is these ding bats are too ignorant to realize they are giving America and the world free entertainment.
Like I said before they are a humorous video of "Americans Behaving Badly" for the whole world to see.
What a pity!!!

Hey, Sharon Angles Man Up and Open Up and Explain how you could be pro-America while being funded by the very Corporation who are shipping American Jobs Overseas…
Once Again…. Sharon Man-up!!!!
Everyone had better pay attention because this is what they are secretly working on
Who Voted in the interest of Out of Work Americans and who Voted against it?
Not only does the Republican Chamber of Commerce want to Eliminate American Jobs, they want to Eliminate Minimum Wage and Paid Overtime as well...
The Republican Chamber of Commerce and the Republican Chamber of Congress refusing to show the American People where their Politico Donations are coming from, I would say these elections will center on a choice. The choice will be the Politicians who want to help grow the Economy where all Americans can prosper VS. The Republican Chamber of Commerce, who have been working very hard to funnel in Secret and Foreign money into the Campaigns of those Republican Politicians who will continue to help the Chamber's proud practice of moving American Jobs Overseas...
If you want to know who is against growing the American Economy, who is against having Jobs Created in America and who is against Healthcare Reform, not only follow the Foreign and Secret Money

Vote Republican folks and let’s get our finances straight. They are fiscally responsible.
So remember folks….Vote
"Man up", the TPs latest effort at debating--they don't have any ideas so just tell their opponent to man up. It's the latest TP craze from Palin, O'Donnell, Angle, Paul and friends.
Actually, Sharon kind of DOES look like a guy, albeit an ugly one. I guess it would be ok to ask HER to 'man up', cut the crap, and actually speak to the press once in a while.
(although, I really do like K Dog's idea better.)
Sharia Angle needs to 'brain up' lol
Let's hope Angle doesn't win in Las Vegas ..already the Asian and Latino and Canadian reservations are being cancelled as i speak ...She is bad for business in Las Vegas
We thrive on tourists and this psychopath insults them ...
WE welcome the Asian and Latino and Canadian visitors with open arms in Las Vegas .
I just love her. Everytime she opens her mouth something stupid comes out. She's got a lot of nerve telling Reid to "Man Up", when her goons shield her from answering questions, or she just runs like a jack rabbit. It's truly my laugh for the day. Be yourself Sharron. What a KOOK!!!
Newt rocks.
Any chance Christine O'Donnell might turn Harry Reid into a Newt?
I do not think an male alley cat could get MAN UP with an audience of ANGLE .No DANGEL FOR ANGLE.
The nut case, but hitler was a nut case that got elected. She scares me!
HERE ARE SOME REASONS WHY I WILL ALWAYS VOTE FOR ANY DEMOCRAT CANDIDATE: McCarthy + Nixon + Agnew + Mitchell + Sloan + Liddy + Haldeman + Ehrlichman + Reagan + Quayle + North + Bushes + Cheney + Rumsfeld + Ashcroft + Gonzales + Paulson + Rove + Gingrich + Bachmann + Angle + O'Donell + Toomey + Paul + Fiorina + Buck + McCain-Palin + Rubio + Kirk + DeMint + O'Reilly + Beck + Hannity + Limbaugh, and many, many others.
If Tea Party and/or GOP takes over Nov. 2nd, here's what to expect, in brief: repeal health-care reform, so if you lose your job and your kid gets sick, you may have to sell the house; repeal financial reform, so Wall Street scammers and predatory lenders can return to doing everything they did before they wrecked the economy; maintain corporate-welfare subsidies that move jobs overseas; reduce spending by slashing education funding; and ending all clean-energy projects aimed at curbing our dependence on Mideast oil. Of course, these policies won’t cut the deficit. Republicans insist on extending $700 billion in tax cuts for the wealthy and leaving the $500 billion defense budget un-touched. Entitlements would merely be “reviewed regularly,” the GOP leadership says, which is code for doing nothing. Sound familiar??!!!?
Nobody knows the "meaning of American exceptionalism" because it does not exist. It is a made up term from the right. If they read their bibles, they would know that those who think they are first will be last. We are all equal members of this world and no one is better then anyone else.
