That’s a reasoned response. I still maintain this is something I would ask my kids not to respond to.
There are only two people who know if what his wife said was true or not. His daughters mean well, but their opinions about this are worthless.
This really reveals the extent of how vile cheating is. When you cheat on your wife, it’s in some ways more like cheating on just about everyone.
Here we are discussing his moral fiber, and with reason. And neither of us is particularly sure how bad it was/is. Does Newt view his fidelity to his wives to take second place when compared to his fidelity to the public?
Is he more faithful to our expectations, than the expectations of his wives? Perhaps so. And if so, what does that say about the guy?
I’m not a fan of Newt, but this causes me to not only squirm because of him, but also to squirm for him. Still, as I said before, Newt has nobody to blame for this but himself.
This is not meant as a defense since its not my place to defend anyone and I'm not a Newtonista, but the late, great Old Atlanta was a friend of Newts for many years and he told me, a short time before he died, that Newt and Marianne had been having a lot of problems because she wanted him to quit politics and she made his life miserable. So they agreed to a separation and Newt met & fell in love with Calista. When Marianne begged to give the marriage another try, Newt tried a second time, but it became impossible.
Like I said, he never lied to anyone about it and never blamed her.
I believe what Rush said this morning, the Left is attempting to "clear the decks" for Obama.
I am Certain that Newt’s sex life is none of my business. I’m relatively sure it’s none of yours.
Not a fan of Newt, eh? Shocker. /sarc
So whose your choice? Mitt?
I don’t know what happened behind closed doors (and don’t want to). I do know that both parties are responsible for their marriage. It’s rarely just one side to blame.
I don’t think Newt would do what Bill did in the Oval Office. I don’t think Bill or Obama (60’s hippies) have any respect for the office.
But honestly, at this point in time. I don’t care if Newt is married to his sister.
People are hurting, good people, people I know. Marriages are being destroyed, families are being destroyed. Someone has to put this country back on track. Pronto.
Mitt will be just status quo with some window dressing. We can’t afford that. Four more of Obama and we’re gone.
