She’s a homewrecker. But then, Newt chose her and left his wife for her.
Still doesn’t excuse what Newt did to wife number 1. Marianne isn’t a saint and neither is Newt. If we’re going to condemn Marianne for being bitter, then shouldn’t we have something to say about the source of the bitterness.
Well said! I wonder, where does “the no one’s perfect” crowd draw the line? Or are they devoid of morality and principle? They can be pesky things, can’t they?
Of one thing I’m sure, too many people, are wedded to the lowest common denominator. Very sad. They’re life’s expectations do not reach out for something better.
For the record I’m not perfect and I’m certainly not without sin. But I try to be a better person. And I never lose sight of right and wrong.
Tough to do that. I do some divorce work. I hate it, because the bitterness on BOTH sides can be palpable to the point of suffocating. And when you first come into the case, often you really can't pin down who started it or how. And I'm talking about after you've done personal interviews and taken detailed discovery. So I just can't take it seriously when people like us, light-years removed from the true facts of the Gingrich case, sit in judgment over people we don't really know. Now I know the passage in the Sermon on the Mount is often twisted to falsely imply we should tolerate of immoral behavior. It means nothing of the kind. However, it does imply, at a minimum, that such judgment of others is often dead wrong because unlike God and those close to the facts, the rest of us just don't really know what happened or why. Our treatment of others should always be tempered by a healthy respect for our own ignorance.
