GINGRICH: "I balanced the budget for four straight years, paid off $405 billion in debt — pretty conservative." Of course, anyone who knows their facts knows that Gingrich and Republicans had nothing to do with balancing any budgets.

Lying Fatass Pig!
GINGRICH: "I balanced the budget for four straight years, paid off $405 billion in debt — pretty conservative."
THE FACTS: In the 1996 and 1997 budget years, the first two years he served as speaker of the House of Representatives, the government actually ran deficits. In 1998 and 1999, the government ran surpluses. Two more years of surpluses followed, but Gingrich was gone from politics by then and had nothing to do with them.
Of course, anyone who knows their facts knows that Gingrich and Republicans had nothing to do with balancing any budgets.
