How many people DON’T know of someone/family affected by divorce?
How many can throw stones today?
How many call themselves Christian, but are unwilling to forgive?

Nail, meet hammer. Isn’t it the truth. I am ASTOUNDED by my fellow extremely sinful and immoral Americans, plagued by a 50% divorce rate ...who act so SHOCKED over Newt’s past history. It’s unbelievable. This from a country aborting millions of children a year. You’d think people would have a bit of humility.
I also know PLENTY of people who call themselves Christian, sadly, in my own family, yet are the meanest, most unforgiving people I’ve ever met. Wish I didn’t know them, but I do. They are obviously out in full force. They are worse than the ones who have confessed their sins, in my mind.
At least we know about Newt’s past. We know nothing about Obama’s.
Let’s get real about Newts baggage. His first marriage was doomed from the beginning. He was a high school senior involved with his 26 year old teacher. They married when he graduated from high school and immediately had a baby. I think it is pretty miraculous with that kind of “baggage” that he still excelled, completed college and continued his education. His second marriage, as many second marriages do, failed. He was married to her close to twenty years. They were separated for four years in the 1990s, reconciled and divorced after the failed reconciliation. I think there is plenty of reason to believe, because of various interviews, that she was a manipulative and vindictive person. I have not heard one charge of rape, assault, domestic violence, non payment of child support, alcoholism, or drug usage. Stop the baggage crap, it is a myth created by those who do not want Newt in power.
