Maurice Sendak on Newt Gingrich 15

Recently, Maurice Sendak was recently featured on the Colbert Report. During the interview, Maurice provided his view on Newt Gingrich:    

Newt Gingrich is an idiot of great renown… There is something so hopelessly gross and vile about him that it’s hard to take him seriously so let’s not take him seriously.

I couldn’t have said it better myself.

  2. Reblogged this on Motley News and commented:

    In memory of Maurice Sendak, 83, who died earlier due to complications from a stroke. This is a quote from his interview on the Colbert Report about Newt Gingrich, who was still running for the Republican Presidential Candidacy at that time.

    Thank you, Maurice, for sharing with us your gift of an incredible imagination.

  3. Maurice Sendak was great, and I saw the interview with him on Colbert. But as I looked at the caricature of Gingrich there in the corner, I thought that it should have been a real photo of Gingrich instead – because his real face is far more repulsive.

    • OMG! That book cover is hilarious! I love Colbert and may just have to order that one.LOL… Like I have time to read. I’ve purchased a few lately that I really want to read, but they’re merely helping keep the dust off of the shelf in my nightstand….

Go ahead... I can hear your thoughts. Please share with the rest!
