"Oops."
since when did newt gingrich being a douche become a news flash?
ok... again... when did that become a news flash? didn't we already know this?
That's what's wrong with my party- the people who will take Newt's response of "I made a mistake. I've become a grandfather. I've found God. Ronald Reagan." as sufficient and all will be forgiven.
I cannot in good conscience ever vote for this guy to be president.
[Ex-wife Marianne Gingrich] kind of guessed it, of course. Women usually do. But did she know the woman was in her apartment, eating off her plates, sleeping in her bed?
She called a minister they both trusted. He came over to the house the next day and worked with them the whole weekend, but Gingrich just kept saying she was a Jaguar and all he wanted was a Chevrolet. “‘I can’t handle a Jaguar right now.’ He said that many times. ‘All I want is a Chevrolet.’”
He asked her to just tolerate the affair, an offer she refused.
He’d just returned from Erie, Pennsylvania, where he’d given a speech full of high sentiments about compassion and family values.
The next night, they sat talking out on their back patio in Georgia. She said, “How do you give that speech and do what you’re doing?”
“It doesn’t matter what I do,” he answered. “People need to hear what I have to say. There’s no one else who can say what I can say. It doesn’t matter what I live.”

lol. But he wouldn't stand a chance in the South anyway.There was an old Fed Ex commercial depicting an aging pool cleaner suddenly discovering a 20-year-old acceptance letter from Harvard he had never received, and imagining the life he could have had. That man is Santorum. He has to wonder if the Iowa vote counters were gay.
Then you have nothing to worry about - should be a walk in the park for Romney, a total blowout.
People are easily led - or easily bought. I fear Obama has effectively bought the election already by putting so many on welfare and not reducing the size of government. He's got the public sector and the welfare/'hood vote wrapped up. As for the business entrepreneurial sector, oh I forgot, there's none left.

So, as far as a I can tell so far, can summarise thus far: Romney only stands out because he's a cock in a field of arseholes?
Private Sector in the upper tax bracket -> Government -> Private Sector in the upper tax bracket.The question then becomes, will he implement economic plans that help the country as a whole, or just people like him?
Who is he to tell anyone that they shouldn't be allowed to marry?
Sanctity of marriage It's all about moral character but even more about two sets of standards, one for yourself and and an entirely different one for others. That's what really makes me sick.
Exactly. As one who has come around on the gay marriage issue the last year or so, it makes me sick as well. The Republican Party is going to lose an entire generation of potential voters over this hypocrisy, and they seem oblivious to that fact.

and that, to me, is the beating, ugly, black heart of the social conservative movement. it is anathema to liberty and freedom to pretend that there is only one way to live and to punish people for being different while living apart from the rules you seek to impose on others.

now you know how conservatives feel when global warming scolds such as Al Gore and Leonardo DiCaprio create carbon footprints 10 or 20 fold what the average American creates with their mansions and travel. When elected serial womanizers and philanderers get a free pass from women's organizations if they vote the right way on abortion and other issues they support. When politicians vote against school vouchers for inner city children while sending their own to private schools. When they moor their yacht in Rhode Island to avoid the luxury taxes in Massachusetts they supported. Etc, etc.
which is all well and good. if you want an open marriage, go for it.
The Lesson: Hypocrisy knows no political affiliation.
