PO I am surprised you didn't catch the quote, Bill Clinton rode that to the White House.

BTW men like Robert Bork, Jay Sekulow and your hero historical revisionist David Barton all support Romney, Jay has since at least 2006, as his first choice. So the guy that makes his living campaigning for free speech and pro-life causes has been promoting Romney...maybe you are just out of step this time around.

Umm, Baron - I did get that and know the origin. You don't type STUPID in red and pretend you are not directing that at someone personally. Bad form as we are not supposed to get into name calling.

PO, lighten up. Everyone that follows politics knows the quote quite well. For goodness sakes, it was directed at the sitting president of the US. Everyone thought it was funny. Stop making a mountain out of a molehill. If Dedicated Mind is offended they can speak for themselves.

No, I'm not going to lighten up. You purposely sized up and put the STUPID in red because, you were calling DM stupid. I didn't think it was funny, so don't say EVERYONE. I am offended and won't get over that this election cycle.

And you know what, I am remembering that even when DM and I have disagreed - He has NEVER been rude to me. Just a little tidbit of info here.

No, I can't get over our progressive candidate. I can't get over that the Republican Party looks more like the Democratic Party every day. AND I can't get over that nominating a progressive will ruin our Party for years to come.

I guess talking family values is more important than living them.

Hope when you seek God's forgiveness, Baron, that you find it and I hope that people forgive you as well.


"What I can tell you is that when I did things that were wrong, I wasn't trapped in situation ethics. I was doing things that were wrong, and yet, I was doing them. I found that I felt compelled to seek God's forgiveness, not God's understanding, but God's forgiveness. I do believe in a forgiving God. And I think most people, deep down in their hearts, hope there's a forgiving God. Somebody once said that when we're young, we seek justice, but as we get older, we seek mercy. There's something to that, I think." - Newt Gingrich

It's not about forgiveness, Newt is a smart but unelectable guy. And that is a great speech, especially if you are courting the family values crowd and you tend to lack them.

This is his third marriage, and why did the other two end?

He had a lot of mercy for Bill Clinton, while doing the same thing...seems his speech was politically expedient but not something he really lives.

Just by this one statement, I can see you don't know Newt, and are not clear on the particulars. He never lied about what he was doing and simply, by rule of law, went after Clinton on Perjury charges. It wasn't about adultery, it was about perjury.

Why didn't Jackie Battley, his HS Geometry teacher not serve time for seducing a minor - he was sixteen?
