Newt's made some big mistakes, some were on purpose, and the affairs are terrible ...

Period.

Yet ... Newt's had the courage to publicly ask forgivness, and also publicly say that he's also asked Christ for forgiveness of his sins and transgressions ...




Michael, you're probably like me ... just an average guy ... getting through life ... raising a family ...

We both probably work 50 weeks in an office or drive a truck or build houses ...

You and I HONESTLY don't have a leg to stand-on when it comes to criticiszing Newt ... or Tiger Woods for their stupid immoral transgressions ...

Why ?

First, Christ commands us NOT to ...

Second, "IF" we were powerful or wealthy ... with SCORES of beautiful, intelligent, sensuous Women hounding us EVERY DAY for "incredible" sex ...

how long (precisely) would you be able to say "no" ?

weeks ? months ? years ?

what if your spouse (secretly) spurned you at home, treated you with scorn and disrespect at home, as you slept on the sofa (alone) for weeks at a time ?



You have to admit that it would be "very" difficult to turn-down the emotional affection and more offered by a BEAUTIFUL admiring woman ...

I know that I would have trouble ... I guess that's why The LORD has made either you or I as a "Donald Trump" character in life ... we simply couldn't survive (morally) ...




So let's cut Newt some slack here ... He's supposedly living as a man whose sins Christ has forgiven ...

Just like Christ does for us when we (momentarily) stop and wonder (for a micro-second) what an incredible time we'd have with the beautiful, smiling 30-something single girl over in the next-door checkout aisle at Home Depot ...

and Christ just then reminds us that we're guilty of adultery




This wasn't a lecture, just the truth ...



Best Regards,

Patton-at-Bastogne

My comments are based not so much on a self righteous condemnation of Newt's transgressions but on a far lower level: I do not think he can beat Obama.

Believe me, if Newt some how gets the nomination, he will have my vote, until that time, I am going to continue to support Santorum and fear that Romney will get the nod. I would love to see Newt go toe to toe with Obama.

“You and I HONESTLY don’t have a leg to stand-on when it comes to criticiszing Newt ... or Tiger Woods for their stupid immoral transgressions ...”

Were we also wrong to have condemned Clinton for his Monica moments?
