Your message of fear and despair (and batshit insanity, too) deserves a wider audience than just the poor folks who actually think Fox News is fair and balanced:

President Barack Obama has been in office just over three months, yet former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich is already forecasting a looming “political dictatorship.”

In a televised interview with Fox editorialist Sean Hannity on March 25, Gingrich cited Jonah Goldberg’s Liberal Fascism as reference for what he sees Democrats in Congress and the White House pushing for.

“I think [Goldberg] ought to reissue it as sort-of an introductory guide to how the left is thinking this year,” said Gingrich. “We are seeing the biggest power grab by politicians in American history. […]

“As has been demonstrated time and again, the right wing has nothing to offer but demonizing attacks on progressive policies,” noted Think Progress blogger Ben Armbruster. “Seeing that Gingrich has escalated the game to ‘dictatorship,’ what will be next?”

Asked that very question — “What’s next?” — Gingrich told reporters earlier in March that he may run for president in 2012, but only “if it’s necessary.”

Newtie, it’s necessary, it’s very necessary that you run for President. Just ask Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert.
