Newt Gingrinch, factually enhanced by Conan O'Brien

Benzinga reports that Newt and Calista Gingrich's interest-free Tiffany account (normal customers get charged 21%) might be considered an unreported gift from the company.

...The Agriculture Committee monitors the Forest Service, which oversees mining, including silver mining, in federal forests. During the time Callista Gingrich worked for the House Committee, she carried a balance in the account (representing an interest-free loan). Tiffany's mines silver on public lands, so keeping a staffer with the pull of Callista Gingrich happy could pay off dearly for the company.

...Adding to the madness is the fact that Newt Gingrich's former top staffer is now a lobbyist for...wait for it...Tiffany's!
