I respect your opinion for sure.
But it has zero to do with any “sins” Newt may or may not have committed. But there is a huge difference between forgiving someone and trusting them. I can’t imagine the Lord expects us to suddenly trust someone just because they said they are sorry. If Obama said he was sorry and asked forgiveness would you suddenly start trusting him?
I also think Newt is a lose canon and too Liberal in some areas. BUT, many of his supporters make a good case for him with some well reasoned arguments. I just don’t support him for reasons enumerated before.
We're on the same page w/r/t Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum. I have fundamental problems with Gingrich's repeated adultery and some other issues, and while I'll vote for him if he's the Republican nominee, I hope we can do better.
Rick Santorum is not my ideal candidate but he appears to be the best we've got.
