How DARE Newt Gingrich lecture Americans on proper moral conduct when he dumped TWO wives while they were ill and was carrying on an EXTRAMARITAL AFFAIR at the same time he was screaming for BILL CLINTON'S IMPEACHMENT?!
Let's review: President Clinton was getting blow jobs from a nubile White House intern who was not his wife. Newt Gingrich was getting laid by a helmet-haired House staffer who was not his wife. THEREFORE, Clinton's behavior is not worthy of the office of the Presidency, but Gingrich's IS? GIVE ME A FUCKING (no pun intended) BREAK!
"But!" born-again Republican Christian fundamentalist angels-in-training will protest. "Clinton was engaging in extramarital behavior in the actual, physical White House, which is the House of the People, supported by the People's taxes! That's just so wrong!"
Excuse the HELL out of ME! I guess if Clinton had swung his dick on his own private property, as Gingrich did, THAT would be all right, then, WOULDN'T IT? Or maybe all would be forgiven if Clinton had dumped Hillary, a woman he clearly loves, and married every successive BIMBO he tapped, as GINGRICH did? Yeah--THAT would be even BETTER!
The sad thing is not that Gingrich is running for president. It's entirely understandable that a bloated, egotistical plutocrat would spend his fortune indulging in the fantasy that he could be elected to the presidency. What's sad is that so many Republicans are willing to buy into his bullshit. And LIKE IT! This is one of the most disturbing things about Republicans--they never THINK FOR THEMSELVES! And they PASS JUDGEMENT ON THE MORALITY OF OTHERS! And they use LAME RHETORICAL FALLACIES to defend their ridiculous NON-OPINIONS! In the name of JESUS!
Thanks for listening. I'll leave you with a cartoon by a brilliant local artist and friend of mine, Dee Bonner.
