NEWT GINGRICH: The Masters an event unlike any other

By Newt Gingrich

What was most impressive and surprising about the Masters was that the event is about so much more than golf. From the pimento cheese sandwiches to the peach ice cream sandwiches (both tributes to the tournament's location in Georgia), there are more experiences than you can imagine. There is also an amazing amount of history at the Masters.

And that's how long they could continue to receive full pay before the VA actually succeeds in firing them.

By Newt Gingrich
