Comments on: Gingrich Had Affair During Clinton Probe

Former House Speaker Admits He Was Cheating, Says Clinton's Lie Was At Issue

[theusa1st]

What nerve saying he deserved impeachment for lying. Apparently, Clinton thought it was nobody's business that he did this which was what you thought too for many many years.

The BIG difference is that Clinton lied under oath to a judge...that is a federal crime. Telling the truth under oath is a cornerstone of our judicial process. Both guys are jerks for what they did to their families...very selfish.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haha! hilarious holy hypocrites newtman!! Foley was out boy hunting and newt was tappin' the aide while they all played pompous and holier than Bill!
Lindsey Graham said yesterday that perjury isn't that bad -talking about Scooter. When pressed about the difference from Clinton's case Graham said it was like "apples and oranges". Ok, so apples are a stained dress and oranges are enabling liars to start an unnecessary war with 3000 plus American heroes dead??
God Bless our Troops
God forgive George Bush

what a disgusting pig. At least Bill Clinton lied in an attempt to try to protect the feelings of his wife and child. This idiot is a hypocrite of the first order. Oh man oh man...

"Doesn't remember" divorcing his wife while she was sick with cancer. He's a piece of work. What a jerk.

(AP) Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich was having an extramarital affair even as he led the charge against President Clinton over the Monica Lewinsky affair,

Gingrich's congressional career ended in 1998 when he abruptly resigned from Congress after poor showings from Republicans in elections and after being reprimanded by the House ethics panel over charges that he used tax-exempt funding to advance his political goals.

YEP, HE'S A REPUBLICAN ALRIGHT!

this isnt even new news, this has been known for years, it was even in a book by Daneesh Desusa, what is the point of this story? Accept to remind us of Clintons actions in the whitehouse and his purjury and impeachment....

[joanpz]

...notice NO CRIME, NO GUILT, NO PENALTY WAGED when GOP POLITICIAN "falls below God's Standard".
Guess poor Bill was only CHARGED BECAUSE OF HE WASN'T A MEMBER OF THE "GOOD OL' BOY'S" PARTY!

Gingrich... neocon... hypocrite. Those words go together well.

This is another example, along with Rudy who also cheated on his wife while in office of how the conservatives are not about family values. They are all about showboating for the religious conservatives. They can point their fingers at everyone else,just so long as they don't have to live it.

I say RUN NEWT. You'll will get trashed in the general election!

[crater7]

HOW CAN THIS BE? THERE ARE TIMES I HAVE FALLEN SHORT OF MY OWN STANDARDS. THERE ARE CERTAINLY TIMES I HAVE FALLEN SHORT OF GODS STANDARDS.
I guess he will go into rehab, and his sins will be cleansed? On the other hand, he will continue to condemed Bill Clinton for falling short of his standards. Clinton should have checked into Rehab, and then Newt, would have forgave him of his sins.

[adian1-2009]

So, Goood Maaan, you were not a hypocrite? And then, how would you define what you were doing? And now you say that you were not keeping to your own nor to God standards. Well, would you be kind enough to tell us about the standards you would recommend we should follow? HYPOCRITE CROOK!!!

This hypocrisy is right on line with the Republican mantra. Trashing People for one thing that the Republican are doing themselves. Screaming for Pardon for Libby while their ranks are full of pergers and thieves. Unless you have been on your knees with your eyes shut in front of some Stalwart Republican like Mark Foley or Tedd Haggert you would have seen that Iraq did not attack America on 9/11 and that Iraq is in a Religious Civil War. The Republican Hypocritical Abortion hating, Pedophile, Gay Bashing, Sausage Smoken Evangelicals who steals millions of dollars from widow women promising them Salvation while all the time seeing male Prostitutes behind their wife%u2019s back are not good Republican character references. While Pedophile Republican Congressmen are still at large. Congress and its Rubber Stamp Oversight of the Cowardous Neo-Con, Chicken Hawk, Draft Dodgers who are sending others to war without ever serving themselves in the Military. The Republicans SUPPORT THE TROOPS rhetoric but can not even care for our Military wounded who live with Rats and Cockroaches at Walter Reed Hospital. The Sunni are funded by Saudi Arabia the Bush Family friends. Bin Laden is still active while Bush is secretly funding Sunni al Qaeda in Lebanon in an Iran Contra style under the table financing scheme outside Congressional approval. Yea Republicans are fine role models if you liken them to Crack dealers.

Gingrich

is a neocon loser who showed his party how they could hodwink America with their "Contract on America" -

morally a void - and this was the man judging President William Jefferson Clinton !!!!

[bullis9]

In the case of his wife with cancer. Is he going to hightail it when our country is in trouble? I can't imagine that babbling fool as our Commander and Chief one's enough!

"There were times when I was praying and when I felt I was doing things that were wrong. But I was still doing them."
Newt Gingrich,
From transcript of interview with James Dobson

Isn't that the idea as why we don't prosecute infants....Family values. Give me a break.

[dbntley]

This so figures, what a schmuck. Wasn't he also divorcing his cancer patient wife at the time.

[bullis9]

Never ending.... Politicians are like cars. Same chassis different body.
