Are you aware that Rick Sanotrum was Pro-Choice until he entered Politics? His wife who had an abortion in 1996, shacked up with a doctor who performed abortions for 7 years.
Santorum is no better than Newt. They are both sinners saved by grace and at least one of them knows it.
Policy wise, Newt out shines all the other candidates. He is also the one who has taken on Obama over religious liberty.
I knew there was always something shady about the Reverend Santomonious. You can tell it on his face when he speaks. He is hiding something, and you may have just pointed out exactly what.
They have been married since 1990. Now how many times since 1990 has Newt reinvented himself? How many affairs? How many policy changes including agreeing with DEMs on environment for political gain?
Santorum is not my idea of a perfect candidate. But between him, Romney, and Newt at least I know for certain where Santorum stands. No I take that back Romney I'm certain is a liberal. Newt is simply what the venue calls for.
Oh and that abortion? You left out a considerable portion. It was a result of surgery to try and correct a developmental defect the baby was having. Surgery has risk. Their baby had a defect and in the womb surgery {which you conviently left out before that} was done too try and correct the issue. POST SURGERY COMPLICATIONS IN HER AND CHILD LEAD TOO CRISIS CONDITIONS FOR EARLY DELIVERY and labor was then induced because of those complications.
IOW they tried to save the child and the surgery failed and endangered both child and mother. At 20 weeks the baby would not have made it too a deliverable term and she likely could have died as well. Induced labor in such cases has been medical protocol for many decades even before abortion was made legal.
As for his wife's life before they met? People make mistakes and change. Many women become pro-life after they become mothers. That said they have been married about 22 years.
Indeed no one is perfect. It looks like Santorum and his wife since they met have been reasonably normal. With Newt? More time is needed for me too draw any conclusions beyond what I base mine on now. If Newt can keep his both in his personal life and political life on track for another four years then yea I'd say Newt would be fine.
