Possibly the Most Amoral Man in American Politics Today

Other than maybe the Koch Brothers: Newt Gingrich. The argument could be made that he is a more articulate and dangerous version of Sarah Palin-- A politician who has no concept of public service or duty, but is only in it for whatever he can get out of it. This is a key quote from the post at Balloon Juice:

Gingrich is an ass and a fool. In a sane world he would be on par with Donald Trump or David Duke or that “The Rents Too Damn High” fellow when it came to being considered a credible candidate for President of the United States. But, it is not a sane world. And the Republican Party has been taken over by Neo-Confederate deadenders who want to take the Country back to 1850. They are—to a one—bat shit crazy, but their chances of winning are not zero. They proved that in 2010 and back in 2000. All of the folks running for the GOP nomination would be disasters for America, but Newt would be something more. He is Grifter Shiva the Destroyer and he has been trying to stick a fork in America and call it done for decades.

Can someone be deemed a traitor if they are not doing the bidding of a foreign power?
