Wonder how they see this as damaging? Wouldn't it tend to make the reader more sympathetic?
OMG! Newt showed forgiveness and actually reconciled with his FATHER! Horrors! I’ve got my pitchfork and Ron Paul lapel pin, WHO’S WITH ME?????
This isn’t harmful to gingrich. To the contrary, it makes him a sympathetic figure who has come to grips w/ his past.
odd it would be put forth as a negative.
maybe they’re thinking it is going to be bad that he reconciled with his father? and that is somehow inconsistent with strongly opposing domestic violence????
And they uncover Obama’s long lost family secrets in 3,2, infinity...
It all depends on whether you hate Newt or not.
“A political source told The ENQUIRER: “Newt is going to face some heavy questioning because while he’s been a major opponent of domestic violence, he secretly reconciled with his wife-beating father.”
WOW, I could rip this “reporters” report to pieces but I will spare all my fellow Freepers having to read a long post..........since it is almost Christmas and there are other more important things to do.......
Several days ago, Axelrod said in regard to Newt. “The higher a monkey climbs a tree, the more you can see his a##.”
That remark, said with a smirk and wink, set the stage for the gleeful, no-holds barred, takedown of Newt by the media.
Two things about the remark:
- It codified the media double standard regarding Newt and Obama. In effect, Axelrod is saying: We can call Newt a monkey; but they can’t call our guy a monkey. Obama’s race protects him from the type of media attack now unleashed on Newt
- I don’t recall anyone on the Republican side going after Axelrod for this remark. Where is our RNC chairman Rince Princess? This is a bloody war for the soul of America and they’re playing it like it’s a normal election.
Didn’t Obama’s father kick his mother to the curb?
Which father? His birth dad that his mother divorced or his second dad that raised him?
Wow, what a bombshell. NOT.
This story is destined for the immediate trash heap.
BTW, Bill Clinton had a similar family background.
He reconciled and came to be on good terms with a wife beater even though he has campaigned about bringing the problems of domestic violence to the spotlight. How horrible!
It would be like someone who taught that drunkeness, gluttony and fornication was sin hanging out with drunks, gluttons and prostitutes.
Little different from journalistic appraisal by the NYTimes. Here is an more accurate comment about BO from a Buffalo NY paper: “barry X, the abandoned b a s t a r d of an illicit union between a deranged, teen aged, communist w h o r e and malcolm X, has his instructions from soros to permanently destroy America and her via debt, wreck her economy, euthanize the greatest generation, demoralize her military via homosexuality and exhaust it in a wild goose chase in the “graveyard of empires”. He does hate America, especially White America, and does love his works of treason and destruction. It is through this that all his actions may be understood.
I hope the military honors their oaths, steps up and arrests this a s s h o l e or better. This son of a w h o r e is the walking definition of a “domestic enemy” and we won’t sit still anymore for his treason.
NEVER EVER forget the mainstream media that conspired to foist this muslim nation wrecking b a s t a r d on America is responsible. They intentionally sold us this traitor.
The democratic soviet is comprised of 22% of the population (blacks, latinos, queers, muslims, transgenders, communists, and abortionists) An amalgam of misfits tied together by nothing more than malevolent envy and hate for Natural Law.
This man is actively destroying an America he was raised to hate, is supported by communists in the media and must be neutralized for the good of all. He CANNOT be allowed to appoint one more Supreme Court judge.“
Newt is responsible for the actions of his father?
If true, this makes him more sympathetic
sounds like he grew up with a couple of hard knocks
There use to be days long past when articles like this would only be found in rags like the National Enquirer. Nowadays, we are just as likely to see such an article in the LA Times, New York Times, Washington Post, Time, Newsweek,.....et.al.
This is absurd. They can’t be serious.
If that’s the only deep and dark secret that Newt has left, that is very good news.
It means there isn’t anything else.
Which has got to frighten the Dems to no end.
I’d like to beat the Enquirer for how they abuse people.
Is this serious! LOL!
I mean really!
Bwahahahahahaha!
