MCH....you're assertion that because Newt Gingrich is an adulterer no other Republicans or conservatives are all guilty by association and therefore have no right to critisize the morality of others is completely absurd. Newt Gingrich is one man. One man who never actually lead his party unlike slick Willie, a man who has single handedly sexually harassed more women in the state of Arkansas than all of the other men in that state combined and the Dems love him for it. RJ had it dead on. Liberals don't even pretend to have values so no one is shocked when they exhibit such ammoral behavior. As moral relativists it's expected of them.

Newt stood up for family values, but he is a disgusting hypocrite for acting in a manner inconsistent with those family values. Correct? BJ Clinton never stood up for family values. So when he acted in a manner inconsistent with family values, it was not unexpected, and he wasn't called a hypocrite. Correct? It's interesting to note that the bar is set higher for those politicians who support ethical and moral behavior, than it is for politicians who we expect to be unethical and amoral... (Of course, Newt never paid nearly a million dollars to silence a woman who accused him of sexual harassment. And Newt was never credibly charged with rape.)

Newt is a politician not a moral theologian. Fine. Then let him stick to politicking and steer clear of the moralizing.

Ahh yes, the typical relativist attack, there is no such thing as morality because we can find someone who defends it is an apparent hypocrit. Newt is a politician not a moral theologian. And quite frankly what he does or does not do has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on what objective moral norms are any more than they have a bearing on the theory of gravity.

"Well, I suppose the Democrats have an automatic advantage there, seeing as how they don't even pretend to care about "family values" and therefore can apparently act however they want." So is that worse than Gingrich's phoney, hypocritical moral rhetoric? (see below) Although you do have a history of espousing empty words over action... From the "Nussle and Fellow Adulterer, Newt Gingrich" web site: "As a high school student, Newt seduced his geometry teacher, Jackie Battley, who he later married after knocking her up. The affair included night time romps in the back of the car until they got busted. While still married to Jackie, Newt hooked up with Anne Manning in D.C. and engaged in oral sex, which Newt later claimed wasn't sex because oral sex doesn't count. This was eventually coined "the Newt Defense." Gingrich later hooked up with a younger woman, Marianne, and had an adulterous affair with her until he divorced Jackie, after confronting her in her hospital room where she was recovering from uterine cancer surgery and insisted they discuss the divorce terms he was seeking."

No, but they're both adulterers, from the party of "Famliy [sic] Values"... Well, I suppose the Democrats have an automatic advantage there, seeing as how they don't even pretend to care about "family values" and therefore can apparently act however they want. Adultery, sexual harassment, and possible rape included.

"Along with about 50% of all married Americans. BFD." - Clavvy The difference being, of course, that 50% of all married Americans don't publicly espouse their own self-righteous morality while condemning others for the same indiscretions they're guilty of.

"No, but they're both adulterers" Along with about 50% of all married Americans. BFD. Adultery IS a family value; if you're not in a marriage, fucking isn't adultery, it's fornication. Or fun, if you're not repressed. Maybe you'd like to stone 'em, emmy? Didn't realize you're moslem. Yawn.

I don't believe Newt or Rudy has ever been credibly accused of rape...or had to pay nearly a million dollars to get the plaintiff in a sexual harassment suit to shut up...

"How about serial adulterers" We are, despite the protestations to the contrary of the christers and other religious types, a secular society. Serial adultery and serial marriage and divorce are cultural norms in our society, practiced by a substantial portion of the population, and by all political persuasions. Hell, it's not even noteworthy anymore. Ask any secularist.

RJ. I thought Gloria Steinem died years ago. I conclude some liberal feminist dug up her grave, administered CPR and brought the bitch back to life. She then went to visit Bill Clinton with a gift. A box of fine cigar's. The Hilldabeast found them, tossed all her dildo's out the window and is now enjoying a great smoke.

Mothers Day and Fathers Day are both not important. First of all how many horrible fathers and mothers there are out there, don't give me that shit that is your mother or your father. Hallmark created Mothers Day why ? Simple stupid to increase sales for cards, now it's one big cash grab. My mother loves me and could care less if I buy her flowers or any of that shit. Love is unconditional you should love the person all year round not just one day.

Arch NOW is for equal pay for equal work. How is that a leftist view? How does that only speak to specific women?

Fathers Day and Mothers Day are there pretty much to help kids remember there parents and appreciate them personally for all the trouble we caused them. Also it seems like this group is hypocrites for the most part. Don't preach the word if ya don't live by what you preach.

You don't get what NOW is so you are all over the place." No Zedd, I do get what NOW is, I just don't buy what they pretend to be, that's why I found the story believable. NOW claims to be an organization devoted for the empowerment of ALL women. They claim to support all women when in fact they are nothing but a mouthpiece for the far left. One need go no further than their webpage to see this. It is riddled with support for leftist views and there is no tolerance for open and honest dissent among the ranks of NOW. NOW stands for National Organization for Women? So why then did NOW not come to the aid of all the women who went public after they had been sexually harassed by Bill Clinton? Why does NOW not let women who have pro-life or anti gay marriage use thier organization to express their views? Any attempt by NOW to paint themselves as anything other than the far left mouthpiece, willing to savage any women who does not dare toe the leftist line is a complete and utter joke. Hey Zedd....it walks like a duck but you can still keep calling it a swan.

I'm actually a leg guy... don't even like jugs and I was using a very crude example, not to mention my lack of spelling and grammer I can't believe someone responded to tripe I wrote earlier. However despite the crude example I'm right and ya know it. The christian guy you refer to is far less likely to complain... Until a whiney little girl paved the way to retiremen with a lawsuit... now of course anybody would walk down that gold paved hwy but do the research yourself I will not fill the blog with sources however Sexual Harrasement related suits filed by women far outnumber those by men. Not to mention most of you are a totally different person (usually a little illtempered) one week each month..We should get paid more to deal with that.. I know I'm a Jerk but deep down like every man I know the Women are really in charge.

Personally, I think we need to ban Mother's Day as well. Let's just throw them both away. Who in this world needs a day to praise their father or their mother? Such old world respect needs to be done away with... We live in a world of independence, of visionaries. We live in a world where you need to have respect only for your self, forget your parents, forget other people. You and what You think is all that matters, no one else matters and what other people think and say doesn't matter. Children. When I was a child, I did childish things, but when I became a man(adult)I put those childish things away. When will people learn how to get along? A laughable dream as far as the people in this world are concerned.
