That’s kinda where I am: if his wives couldn’t trust him, why should I? Sounds simplistic, but in matters of integrity I’m a pretty simple guy.
Colonel, USAFR
Kind of like how few people care about Mitt’s Mormonism as compared to Romneycare.
He divorced his second wife after 18 years. He commented "she is a Jaguar, and I fell like a Chevrolet'.
In both his divorces he met and proposed to the next wife before being separated from his current wife at the time.
He is a left leaning moderate. He is not conservative.
He is a declared internationalist and loves Toffler’s Book “The Third Wave” (hope the name is correct).
His personal life is his and it also indicates how he thinks and operates.
The fact he divorced his first wife while she was in the hospital with cancer ... shows narcissistic character. He had already asked his girlfriend to be his wife and marry him before he divorced the first. Eighteen years later ... he did it again. !!!
Sure enough the Toffler book is "FUTURE SHOCK". Newt sings its praises.
Hot air newt. He agrees with whomever just wrote him the biggest check.
AMAZING GRACE, how sweet the sound that saved a WRETCH like me. That is just to awesome to comprehend at times, but it happened anyway.
I don’t care if Newt and Calista publicly seek other women for threesomes on Craig’s List. That does not affect me. Another term for 0bama affects America very badly.
exactly!!
>> If a conservative having been divorced is such a problem for evangelicals, they better stop listening to Rush Limbaugh, he’s on marriage #4 and Ronald Reagan was divorced as well. While, it certainly would be nice if a candidate married his high school sweetheart and was faithful his entire life, for me at least, a divorce isn’t a deal breaker. I voting for the best leader, not husband of the year...>>
Now don’t go rain on the self righteous parade of the Pharisees around here. And especially don’t do it with either the idea of logic - or the idea of Biblical grace.
Sampson screwed around. So did David. So did Jacob. Joseph manipulated his power. Paul was the liberal’s liberal at one point. Peter was very scared of what the elitists of his day had to say about him.
Why in the world some of the supposed religious minded around FR think we’ll have a better selection of folks to work with than God did is just amazing to me. So intellectually bankrupt and laced with an ugly hypocrisy.
As far as is known, 0bama has kept his wedding vows. He breaks his vow to the Constitution all of his waking moments. Which is more important?
Well done.
Sorry. I did look it up. That is information straight from the mouth of his wife of 18 years. It is current information.
You may be too trusting or misinformed.
Now he’s the victim???
He divorced while fighting cancer, then refused to support the family forcing the Church to take up a collection.
Sorry, I just can’t trust him to hold to the oath of office.
You’re sitting right in front of a computer!

Newt can survive the few posters that are so blind they forgot what Newt accomplished as Speaker. Sorry, complaining posters, we don’t need you or your vote.
