“I wonder how the divorce of his ailing wife, dying of cancer fits in to his faith?”
You might want to take the time to research this claim. First of all, Jackie Battley was Newt’s first wife who wanted and filed for divorce PRIOR to the infamous “terminal cancer hospital visit.” Incidentally, she had a benign uterine tumor and IS STILL LIVING TODAY. Newt took his children to visit their mother at the hospital and a discussion about the terms of the divorce ensued. It might also be helpful to know that the relationship between Newt and Jackie began as Newt, a high school student and she, his 26 year old teacher.
Lots of excuses. What’s his excuse for dumping wife #2 after she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis?
Sorry, “I loved my country so much that I had to cheat on my wives.” isn’t going to cut it with most people.
