Why don’t you just let it go and respect the author’s wishes.

Because haters gotta hate.

Over the past decade, a new type of "conservative" has sprung up. It used to be that conservatives didn't use personal invective to attack their political opponents, they used reasoned argument. Emotional attacks were strictly the purview of the left.

For some reason, it has now become common for conservatives to use ad hominem and twist facts to score political points in exactly the same manner as the liberals whom I used to hold in contempt--for that precise reason.

I do not believe it is a coincidence that this rise of the emotionally driven "conservative" has occurred concurrently with the rise of the Paul-bearer movement and libertarianism in the mainstream of politics.

Whenever there is a cult of personality, such as with Obama and with Paul, emotions run high and the ground work is set for personal attacks against any who dare to question the cult leader.

That's why they can't just leave it alone.

This puts to rest some fiction that many believed to be true when it wasn’t. The wife pretty much let that fiction hang out there, until this revelation by Jackie.

As for Newt, he will be a force whether anyone likes it or not, not to say that he will win, but he is a genius and VERY persuasive, except on his personal life which has taken a turn for the better. No one beats him in a debate, so brace yourself.
