I had a Cockney friend who used to use the expression “pissed as a newt” for describing someone who was “buzzed.”
Is it just me, or was Newt Gingrich a little buzzed during his appearance on Hannity and Colmes tonight? Overmedicated? Brain hemorrhage? He was even agreeing with Colmes! Sleep it off, Newt. We love ya, but ya gotta be in working shape when you get in front of the camera.
