Dr. Laura: 20th century fraud? | page 1, 2
The Bells of Saint Gingrich "In the first place, nobody is a saint. I mean, if you believe in God, by definition you believe nobody is a saint. So the most religious of people should have the deepest understanding that you're not going to elect saints, you're going to elect a sinner, and hopefully, you elect a sinner who prays, a sinner who is self-aware, a sinner who is responsible." -- Serial adulterous wife-ditcher Newt Gingrich on sin, politics and responsibility, in a three-part interview taped the day after he dumped victim ... uh, I mean, wife No. 2, Marianne, and airing this week on C-Span. - - - - - - - - - - - - Goldberg did it! Speaking of charlatans ... If pressed to vote in an online poll for the Person I'd Least Like to Meet at a Party This Century (is anyone over at Time.com biting?), I believe I just might cast my vote for Lucianne Goldberg. Long-time NP readers may recall that I did once spy gabby Goldberg gobbling down the finger food at a fabulous D.C. fete, but I didn't actually meet the woman I like to think of as the Kato Kaelin of the Lewinsky-Tripp affair.

Goldberg recently told George magazine that when she was introduced to Starr at a party not long ago, the independent council greeted her with a "blank stare, like an iguana on a log in sunlight." So Goldberg handed over a little more evidence. "I said, 'I'm Linda Tripp's friend,' like I was speaking to a retarded person. I still don't think he knew who I was." Or maybe he did. - - - - - - - - - - - - No animals were harmed in the writing of this column ... They say that every dog has its day, but apparently Mickey Rourke's dog's day just wasn't coming soon enough for his famous film-star owner. According to the BBC, the "9 1/2 Weeks" star scampered off the set of his latest film, "Luck of the Draw," after the first day of filming because the producers wouldn't let his pet Chihuahua, Bo Jack, appear in a shoot-out scene. So that's what "creative differences" means ...
