Newt ad: The French Connection

[j3parrots]

and the world laughs..... then cries

[LeCommensale]

Insulting Romney for speaking french is proof that some politicians will say ANYTHING to get elected.

[LeCommensale]

Gingrich thinks that speaking multiple languages is bad, that we should spend a ton of money to build a base on the moon, and should launch a pre-emptive war against Iran.

It figures that he won the South Carolina primary.

[Markus77x7]

It's all true. Look it up. Romney is a flaming liberal.

[cheeseking27]

This is a joke right?

[Argon165]

Education, hell no.

[TheA13music]

What the...? :D He speaks French. Oh, wait... it's not a joke? :D :D :D *bwahahaha*

[jimmiandfunny]

I am a German. I learned English and French at school. So, am I a bad German, a bad European, a bad person or what?

by the way: The fact that you can read my comment is due to my English language knowledge :-)

I hope so much that Americans will vote an open minded person for president. The gentleman who this campaign is made for obviously is not.

[DJDoena]

Oh noes. He speaks French. How dare he?

[namelez7]

I thought politics over here in Germany were already ridiculous – but this is just... wow. what the fuck...

[Bloomenkind]

this is more fascistic then the nazis ever was

[werewolf327]

I was wondering who could possibly make an ad this idiotic and full of bullshit, until I realized that it was Newt Gringrich's.

[hansimaier01]

Being bilingual is obviously bad in the US these days. I feel bad for that country that used to be so powerful. Glad I'm in Europe with free health care, social security and affordable, good quality education. Anyone who believes the anti-European rants by the Republicans should check the facts. We are way better off than the US.

[Rebestein]

Hahahaa. He speaks French, he is left wing, can't do the real right wing nut job.

American politics is a bitter joke. How does a person who authorises these stupid smears qualify to become president? Aren't there any conservatives in the United States?

[KaizerSozeification]

fefe botnet activate

[JMCQ87]

@YouTubilify An "illegitimate" child? What's wrong with you?!???

[LordHonkInc]

I love this. The fact that somebody had the balls to go and say "Guys, y'know what would be a killer ad?" and then get it signed off and paid for is just so incredibly sad it's actually hilarious, and then comes full circle back to sad.

[Weresmarterthen]

Hahaha... No one I speak with likes Mitt!!! Go awayyyy!!!

And the Ron Paul campaign officials have been trying to get Newt to give up the delusion that he can win the nomination (he is not on enough state ballots to win the required number of delegates). And the critics of Ron Paul question Ron's electability..?

The MSM will not recover from their credibility gap, post '12 elections; they have lost their future viewing base.

[kmr15mhs]

How is this not a parody!? lol, how dare he speak French?! This is so insane.

[Sistarovat]

@baretous The fool hath said in his heart there is no God. - Psalm 14:1 Answer not a fool according to his folly lest thou be like unto him. Proverbs 26:4

[WilliamLongfellow]

@Sistarovat Using the Bible to insult an atheist is as fruitless as casting a avada kadavra on someone who didn't like Harry Potter.

[EnchanterTom]

Jewt Gingrich.

[baretous]

Pepe the Newt

[UncutTuts]

Ron Paul, not this idiot. VOTE OR BE SHOT

[mjursic]

He speaks French????  Rumor has it that--unlike the rest of the current crop of GOP candidates--he even read a book once!

[bolmiche01]

Bonjour, je m'appelle Mitt Romney... well... that just sounds so uncanny...

[seeky907]

He speaks French?!!? Two words: Deal breaker.

[ivlfounder]

@seeky907

Oh the horror, we can't have another Jefferson in the white house.

[challengeyourmind]

For those of you who keep missing the point, this ad is NOT about bilingualism. The subliminal message here is that Romney sides w/ the lazy French ne'er do wells. Look @ how Kerry is hilariously portrayed as a lazy bum, up to no good. Everyone knows the gop can't stand the French. They've been mad @ them for years, especially when they refused to join Bush's war. So the conclusion you're supposed to reach by watching this is that Mitt is a no good, untrustworthy bum

[250kad]

Desperate Newtle or doing Dem's work? Mitt's the only one who's not a freak. Ron Paul as VP wouldn't hurt and would steer the ship from the stern.

[prielazybones]

GOP = anti-intellectual party

[Saebeck32]

Did you know Mitt Romney also knows math? He is an elitist!

[tubester4567]

omg Mitt speaks French? Its treason!! We should execute him!! How dare he have the intelligence to speak another language!!

[MrSethAction]

RON PAUL!!!

[axiom29a]

Le fail.

[ymmmmot1]

RON PAUL IS THE ONLY TRUE REPUBLICAN....

[magomezga]

GOPmorons: "Are you educated? Fuck you!! How dare you!! I smell communist. Do you speak french? Then i suppose you're an unpatriotic baby killer." Oh shit, only in America, babe, the Tea Party nation, where poor people is called "greedy", and Obama is considered "socialist".WTF? Is this people out of their minds? Can't have a rational opinion on anything? How many of this bastards think Obama is messing with their children cause he said that every kid shuould go to college?

[MrSheniah]

Excellent video. LOL Mitt Romney is just a lying weasel. We're with Newt for Real Change!

[GonnerTrue]

Rofl, only in America is speaking more then one language a bad thing.

[Afghamistam]

Going windsurfing on holiday = rich liberal elitist. Real Americans spend their holidays at home, chopping wood, in the rain. VOTE NEWT.

[oyvindmacody]

Thats low Newt. Just low.

[indiereplicant]

HOW DARE HE SPEAK FRENCH.

[eraldb12]

Since when speaking a second language is a bad thing? This is why america has so many IGNORAMOUS people because they made to believe bad things are Learning a Second Language, or knowing where the "THE UNITED STATES OF EUROPE IS" -LOL- but ask them where MacDonald's is, they will give you the right directions...

[tzushih]

Good music! I like that froofy French café stuff.

[MaxLalib]

AND JUST LIKE BARACK OBAMA, HE HAS BROWN HAIR! IT MUST MEAN SOMETHING?

[papersplease]

Newt is getting desperate.

[kleshco]

That was silly. Let them duke it out I say. -Ron Paul 2012-

[waltdv]

What's the message here that bilingualism is bad? How fucking stupid are these people that they think being bilingual is a negative? Message to the world. Not all American's are like these people. Will you take them?

[abluecarrot1]

Wait. Wait. Wait. The argument was at least somewhat valid until it lost all credibility at the end.

[alqammd]

Neither one is electable

[xKev85]

down with the US. the sooner china take over the better

[8tsunami7]

Est-ce que c'est une blague? Quelle basse démagogie!

[Sistarovat]

@Raminagrobisfr But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to [give] the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. - 2 Corinthians 4:3-6

[briannnuwqo90a3]

And just like Ron Paul, Newt Gingrich is a fucking racist.

[IAMTHECAKEdotORG]

lol i rather the person thats running our nation to know as many languages as possible think itd be pretty useful as the president does tend to interact with other countries and the people from those not just the ones he is in charge of.

[TheKwr66]

s not American if he speaks French"

[TheKwr66]

not electable. "uh, well, guess he

[TheKwr66]

"and just like Kerry, he speaks french." uhh.. So now your implying that being bilingual and more open to other cultures makes you a

[milowent]

va te faire foutre, newt. The French are coming for ya!

[MuchToDoAboutNowt]

LOL! Who directed this, the Onion News Network?

[123gogomen]

@MuchToDoAboutNowt I actually believe this was from the Colvert Report until I started to read the comments...

[123gogomen]

What this is not a parody!!! :-O really. OMG

This really show how politics in the US are a joke... Speaking two languages is a bad thing?

[MrSheniah]

@123gogomen The French reminds us of how Mitt Romney protested against protesters of the Vietnam draft deferment, then ran off to France to escape the draft, filing numerous deferments He's an idiot! Newt 21012

[Ackerland2]

@123gogomen The sad thing is not that this spot is making this jab at Mitt Romney speaking french, the sad thing is that a large part of US citizenship really believes speaking "french" is a bad thing, or else this would not have been included in this spot. This goes a long way for explaining the state that the US currently is in.

[TheAerouge]

@123gogomen Beeing a US politician is a bad thing ... no matter how many languages they speak ...

[luisguillermojg]

Who's the "strong on defense" liberal governor at the beginning?

[ixat00]

@luisguillermojg Dukakis, I think.

[Chaduke]

Here's all the evidence you need. Republican candidates (Ron Paul aside), think their voters are complete morons.

[matchbox555]

speaking french = crime in america

[logjammin1987]

Republicans are twats

[Sistarovat]

This ad was pretty good UNTIL the French jab. Hey, I hate France too. They're a bunch of atheistic, sissified, liberal idiots. But seriously, criticizing Romney for knowing French. He went over their as a MISSIONARY for crying out loud!!! The French people need Jesus too. Newt you're done. Pack your bags with all your baggage and hit the road. RON PAUL FOR DIXIE!!!

[Raminagrobisfr]

@Sistarovat I don't need an undead carpenter, keep it for yourself.

[baretous]

@Sistarovat French people are not in need of jesus coz most of them got a brain 2 centuries ago.

Greetings from my sissified country, brainless yankass

Thomas Paine, Jefferson and me we piss on you it's fun

To other yankees no worrie, we still like you

BTW Newt s already fucked up. Should had learnt french maybe

[ProductionsDMc]

Newt est un idiot/Newt is an idiot. Hey, these languages are pretty universal!!

[Dagney77]

Newt is a joke.

[0Enidan0]

This is absolutely priceless! Never thought I'd say this, but Newt Gingrich just made me smile.

[namuzed]

Mon dieu!

[joejohnson043]

Thats great..... I especially love the part that says "paid for by Newt"! Are we supposed to forget Newt's history? He says not to judge his past, yet he tries to base his qualifications on that past. Voting for Newt would make conservatives the biggest hypocrites possible with no way to argue otherwise. We are already accused of it by a libtard press, but why would you want to actually make it true by voting for Newt?!

[Eloketh]

Is this for real? Please tell me this is a parody. This belongs in an episode of the Simpsons.

[mnfghdjghjdghdj]

What's up with speaking French? Is that some racist statement or what?

[mwangolatrue]

OMG ... He speaks FrEnch !!!

[CactusHazretleri]

I do hope they're right about him not being able to beat Obama...

[RosaAquafire]

"He speaks French." Very, very barely ...

[ALEXFVHS]

Ron Paul 2012!!!

[ditkuss]

So much for Nut not going negative. I don't like Romney either, but Nut really is a serial hypocrite.

[jtruej]

Brilliant.



[TheInflicted]

George Washington, Ben Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson also spoke French.

[joejohnson043]

@TheInflicted who are they? ............lol [sarcasm]

[jhdincal]

This is strictly from poverty, a gutter level attack. I personally think Newt is only running to improve his brand recognition for his books and consulting gigs. I don't take him as a serious candidate. Sorry Newt.

[joejohnson043]

@jhdincal Newts just doing his job, trying to help Obama win. If he got the nomination, he'd have handed the win to him personally, but if not, attacking the nominee is the best he can do. I know, I know, 'not newt', because we forget he supported Hillary to be press only a few years ago, that he did that lovely global warming vid with Pelosi, and that he was getting paid to advice Fannie & Freddie... I mean, seriously... hello?!?! What a bigger narcissist than Obama.....

[JohnnyMidnight1]

hahahahah Romney's a whimp!!!

[L0rdDavid]

Francophones? In MY America?

[MCnVegas]

I love it! HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!

[CanadiensUnplugged]

That's some pretty terrible French.

[Keyekebero]

Newt nuke

[JackCoxx]

Oh Newt, thank you for releasing this ad.

Signed,

A Liberal

[Paulsur]

I am not a Mitt fan, but these cheesy attack ads prove that Newt is just a toad.

[Premier112]

Thanks Newt, won't be voting for you and you don't deserve to be touched with a ten foot poll.

But we do agree Romney is a leftist only a phony conservative would think deserves the White House, so yay.

[ravenlord4]

Hahahaha!!! Tres bien -- c'est magnifique :P

Viva le Newt  :D

[Volatus]

Besides, what's with this obsession with beating Obama anyway? Is there nothing he's doing wrong that can even be called out? Nobody even has a platform to stand on for beating Obama other than "contradicting the things he's done to help people"... seems like everyone just wants the guy out for no good reason, other than that Obama's not a Republican, and Republican offices have bills to pay, so they have an agenda to push... I like transparency and all, but this stuff is just TOO clear.

[Volatus]

OMG, Romney voted Democrat?! Liberal?! Holy Flaming Christwagons, we're on a lot of trouble with this guy! No, NEVER! He'll be another BUSH... er, I mean... OBAMA! NAY! SAY NO TO... wait... um... who are we saying "no" to again? I'm confused. What's wrong with... eh... hmm. Well, I'll just be over here. Voting for Obama. Carry on.

[bj9mac]

So the Republicans vote for Progressives now? Awesome. I think he might even be to the left of Obama.

[joejohnson043]

@bj9mac are you talking about Newt? If so, you're right!

[snickeroos]

Vote Ron Paul--2012!

[JMShuffield]

This could have been a terribly effective ad until Newt went with that garbage at the end about speaking French. Lame attempt to play toward xenophobia. Leave it to Newt to play to the lowest common denominator.

[Grimnir9]

I would like thank Newt and his campaign for releasing this ad, dissing Flipper, thus saving the Ron Paul campaign the money. Everyone knows Newt has no chance, so he must've released this as a favor to Ron Paul.

[00Billy]

French huh? Newt stop being such a Newt.
