The only analogy that Moe has made is, the liberals that grasp at personal issues with repubs and ignore them with Dems are floppy anus snow cows.
Ok well now its made.

Repubs are the ones that campaign on traditional family values and all that good stuff..

Cheating on his dying wife ended John Edwards' career. For Newt apparently it is a plus.

Hey, just like I don't have cancer, she isn't a whore. In fact she is a pretty damn nice woman.

Funny how a "conservative" who will support Newt calls single women having fun with single men "whores"....but doesn't seem to have any problem with Newt cheating on two wives then marrying the women who were screwing him while he was still with his previous wife.

Run for office Ptilk, I won't give two shits what you do in your personal life.
Throw stones at someone for their personal life and you open up personal lives as an issue.
Some people however are hypocrites with a 'this applies to them but not me' position.
I am not one of those.
However glad to hear you aren't dying of cancer. I seriously thought you were.

The only reason I care about Newt's private life is because he made "morals" a fundamental part of his platform and he is being supported by people who want to use their morals as guidelines for laws in this country.

And because it's funny as hell that "conservatives" and "evangelicals" would support a slimy shit like him.

BTW. I have a progressive disease of the central nervous system. It's not a terminal disease, just a PITA. But thanks, I'm glad I don't have cancer too.

Rush leaps to the defense of Gingrich...


Quote:

So Newt wanted an open marriage. BFD. At least he asked his wife for permission instead of cheating on her. That's a mark of character, in my book. Newt's a victim.



But allowing gay marriage destroys the institution of marriage?

Guess this must be more of that 70% stuff paulg hates.

I think that they finally jumped the shark with the ex-wife interview.


Instead of torpedo'ing his campaign as desired, I think we are going to see a backlash of support for Gingrich as even the most jaded of cynics realize just how low the media has fallen.



Only someone soft in the head would fall for that type of simple manipulation. It's like if you catch your kid, wife, or friend doing something wrong and they get mad at you for calling them on it. It ends with you feeling bad for even bringing it up.


It's no surprise it worked on you.

Except he was cheating on her before he asked for the open marriage. He also didn't stop the affair when she said no to the open marriage.

You mean Rush wasn't exactly wholly truthful in what he said??? Tell me it ain't so!!!
