Gingrich Gets Backing from Pro Adultery Website
Time ^ | 12/20/2011 | Joe Jackson

Posted on 12/20/2011 11:17:18 AM PST by wolfman23601

In a blatant – and unavoidably successful – bid for publicity, extramarrital affairs website Ashleymadison.com has unveiled a giant billboard supporting the formerly philandering White House contender. It cheekily proclaims: “Faithful Republican… Unfaithful Husband,” reports the political website Think Progress.

The billboard – which had gone up roadside in Bucks County, Pennsylvania – comes complete with a picture of Gingrich with his finger on his lips in a “ssh” gesture. The surging GOP contender has an infamously checkered past when it comes to fidelity, with two of his three marriages ending in divorce after he had affairs with younger women.

The dating website – which adopts the tagline “Life is short, Have an affair” – has no qualms about the poster. “Now that Newt is the leading contender in the race for the GOP nomination, we felt compelled to make a point to illustrate how times have changed when a serial divorcee/adulterer is capturing the hearts of the American people,” said Noel Biderman, the founder of the cheaters website, as reported by Think Progress.

Perhaps Gingrich can take heart from the old advertising maxim: there’s no such thing as bad publicity.

If Gingrich could garner the adulterers vote, he’d win in a landslide.

Since he has turned his life over to God, some will forgive him and others will use his sins to push their own agendas.

Time magazine is a piece of trash. Nothing in it is worth discussing other than — Time magazine is a piece of trash.

As I understand it, it was not Time magazine who paid for the billboard.

I'll tell you what, let's all dump on Newt because he has been divorced. Then we can have another 4 years of a commie, appeaser, idiot, America hater.

That will show that asswipe Newt that got divorced. Never mind his wife filed on him, not the other way around. We got rid of that no good Cain with absolutely no evidence, why not dump on Newt for what most people in America have also done. How dare he make money while he wasn't in government. How dare he buy jewelry from Tiffany's. He should drive a Chevy and buy from Zales like the rest of us.

I keep looking for this bag of baggage that Newt is allegedly dragging around, but would rather have him than the other lightweights.

Oh, and I just heard that Obama is really scared of Romney and would rather run against Newt. ....Right!
