Is Carl Paladino a Man Without Character? (Vanity)
The Fertile Mind of Lauren BaRecall | September 26, 2010 | Me

Posted on 09/26/2010 2:33:32 PM PDT by Lauren BaRecall

Carl Paladino committed the sin of adultery. How many commit the sin of fornication? Fornicators lack character, and this sin, as well as adultery, is among the big ones that's flushing America down the toilet.

Paladino fathered a child by his extra marital affair, but did not prevail against the mother by demanding she have an abortion. How many men have made that demand whether they were married to the woman, or were adulterers or fornicators? Paladino walked the pro life walk, and continues to do so. I would say that type of action demands character.

Paladino supports his child. Deadbeat dads are bereft of character.

By the grace of God, Paladino and his blessed forgiving wife have incorporated his child into their family. How many men, by divorce or otherwise, abandon their children in favor of a life elsewhere, or a new family? These are the men who have no character.

How is it that liberals have said that families come in all different kinds? Is this statement only a feel good bumper sticker in favor of homosexual marriage and adoption, or does it also apply to the Paladinos? If it doesn't, isn't it only one more hypocrisy of the left? (But what else is new.)

How is it that the Religious Right can condemn Carl Paladino for his sin, and not acknowledge God's redemptive work in his life? How can they preach salvation, and yet when they see a real life example of it - how this man has sinned, how he chose to take responsibility for its consequences, and how he and his wife are choosing life each and every day - they say, “I can't vote for Carl; he has no character?” If they can say that, then what they claim to believe has no meaning, and they have no mercy in them. They have much more in common with the woman who said, “Divide the child,” than they have with Jesus Christ.

For many years, the Republican elites have chosen RINO candidates for whom we “hold our noses,” and push the levers. In my opinion, one of the major reasons we haven't had quality candidates is due to the politics of personal destruction. People of character who have something in their respective pasts, for which they've atoned and have moved on, have been reluctant to come out and risk exposure. Now that it's necessary for the preservation of our country that we field solid conservative candidates, some of these individuals have come forward and put themselves on the line. The least we can do is be supportive of not only their candidacies, but also of their CONVERSIONS.

Carl Paladino is our candidate in the NYS Gubernatorial race. He's a man with a determination to clean up Albany and New York State politics. He is also a man with a Testimony.

It would do well for us to remember the old Biblical quote that finds its perfect application here: “Let he who has not sinned cast the first stone.”

Hmmm ~ has a ring ~ Tokyo Rove.

He's still making mouth motions that demonstrate he blew it with his pet RINO ~ guy's 71 isn't he?

Even Carl should have known that it was time, at worst, for a NEW pet RINO. Absent that Carl needed to "git out the way"

Did you read her defense of him, or just react?

David committed adultery and murder and deserved death by stoning. God forgave him and kept him in office.

If Paladino’s wife forgives him, that’s good enough for me.

Thanks Lauren BaRecall.
Paladino fathered a child by his extra marital affair, but did not prevail against the mother by demanding she have an abortion... Paladino supports his child... and his blessed forgiving wife have incorporated his child into their family... How is it that liberals have said that families come in all different kinds? Is this statement only a feel good bumper sticker in favor of homosexual marriage and adoption, or does it also apply to the Paladinos? If it doesn't, isn't it only one more hypocrisy of the left?

I think that mad was posting to post #1, as is traditional at FR when someone posts to no one in particular.

My mistake then, if that’s the case.

I thought he was responding to you since it was a vanity.

And she would know....

Just look at Cuomo's marriage....

Cathy Paladino is an exceptional woman.

Carl has enough dirt on the Prince of Wails’ political life to keep him busy. OTOH, the (Once Apparently) Heir (But Not Anymore) to the NY Throne has nothing on Carl's ISSUES. Hopefully, the only throne that Prince Andy will sit on is the porcelain one in his house.

More character than anyone on the stinking left! Are New Yorkers waking up? After 9-11 failed to wake them up, I had my doubts they ever would.

Democrats and liberals don’t even talk about family values.

So when they do outrageous things, who cares?

Republicans DO talk about family values! Often.

But because they are right on the issues, if they don’t live up to the idea of family values, no problem!

Don’t you people realize that when a Republican does something like what Carl did, it makes it HARDER for us as a party to talk about family values.

I can tell you don’t.

He is for life and he is for guns.

That’s all that matters.
