Historian And Consultant

So when, at the last debate, Gingrich was asked why he got paid $300,000 by Freddie Mac, he said he offered them “advice as a historian.”  I’m guessing that the most innocent plausible scenario is that the advice went “something like this”

Today it turns out that Gingrich made upwards of $1.6 million from Freddie Mac as a “consultant”.  Watch out.  The consulting is getting pretty deep out there.
