Newt Gingrich is an asshole.
Ole Newtie gave his reason why he cheated on his wife in an interview today. "My love and passion for this country so overwhelmed me, that I didn't realize what I was doing" Now Newtie is asking for God's forgiveness for his adultery. Funny thing though, Newtie was all hot and bothered when Bill Clinton was accused of cheating on Hillary, that he wanted him impeached for it. I remember Newtie saying that for the good of the country, Clinton had to be impeached, because the moral fabric had been broken.

Now I'm going to give Newtie the same chance he gave Clinton...none!!! Gingrich is a serial liar, cheater, hypocrite and total scumbag. This bullshit story just shows that Newtie will say anything to get back into the good graces of the whackadoodle right wingers. I just wonder how many will actually swallow what Gingrich is telling them.

Gingrich will probably announce whether he is running for president sometime in May. If he announces, I hope the media will hold his feet to the fire, and not let him off the hook so far as his adultery goes. He never let Clinton do it, so why should we let him do it. Newt Gingrich is an asshole!!! The country should never forget that. I know I won't.

1. Did you just figure that out?

I can't believe anyone takes his candidacy seriously. He might split the "moderate" vote like Fred Thompson and allow Huckabee to win the primary nomination.

But other than that...

4. He dishonored his marriage vows
and anybody who would dishonor his marriage vows will also dishonor his oath to the country as well.

13. It also brings to light the danger of the "out" of fundamentalist christianity
Edited on Thu Mar-10-11 12:28 AM by PurityOfEssence
If, as is practiced by reprobates like this criminally selfish megalomaniac, one can suck up to the lord and thus be forgiven all his/her trespasses, then what's to keep one from doing as one damned well pleases in the future, expunging it with repeated bouts of redemption?

The answer is that this mechanism is cheerily conducive to continual abuse. All one has to do to absolve oneself is to suck up to the big whatever. Lay waste all you please and never make amends to those you hurt, but cover your own cosmic ass and you're fine.

In the hands of a truly ugly organism like Newt Gingrich, all's fair. He's really a piece of work, too: a creepy, cowardly, sniping, dastardly, insinuating bigot and bully of mythic proportions.

It's truly astonishing that a certified rotter like this still has a shot at the big game. I don't think he can really pull it off, but these are wacky times...
