Should John Edwards reinvent himself as a Republican?

[syrenn]

I think he should.

His personal failings are very similar to Newt's and it turns out that such things don't matter to Republicans.

And here i thought open marriages and free love was a liberal idea.

I can't speak for anyone but myself. I don't care too much about Newt's (or any other candidate's) personal failings, I care more about policies and positions.

Of course, if you have proof positive that Newt fathered a child out of wedlock with a money grubbing whore, while married, and payed her off using campaign contributions......by all means please present it, "Enquiring Minds" want to know!!

 

[California Girl]

You mean if he lives?

Did John Edwards lie about his affair? Did Newt? Did John Edwards convince his friend to lie and admit the little love child was his? Did John Edwards care about the humiliation experienced by the friend's wife? Who did Newt blame for his affair.

If there is a comparison, it's that when Republicans have a moral failing, they don't lie about it or blame someone else. This ALONE puts Newt head and shoulders above democrats.

Newt Gingrich lied about his affairs every time he took marriage vows.

I love this rightwing stupidity. Adultery is ok if you're not on record lying about it.

If what you say is true then each and every person who is divorced lied when they took their marriage vows. Democrats included.

That is horseshit.

Marriage vows normally contain a vow of fidelity.

We're not interested in the private life of you and your husband, asswipe

Who did Newt blame for his affair.

His patriotism.

No, really! He did!

 

[Warrior102]

And speaking of perverted sexual deviants, how about that Barney Frank guy?

Anthony Weiner anyone??

LOL!!!!!

 

[Article 15]

Unless Newt time traveled back to the 90's, became President, cigar fucked Monica and blew his load on her dress THEN lied about it none of his issues count.

Stupid libs.

I think John Edwards would be a perfect running mate for Newt. He can revive his old "Two Americas" speeches. He was a class warfare ace!

"There's the America where Mitt Romney pays 15 percent taxes, and there's the America where Newt Gingrich pays 35 percent taxes."


Little did we know there were two John Edwards', eh? And three or four Newt's.

"There's the America where a man marries one woman and is faithful to her for over 40 years and raises five children, and there's the America where a man marries three women and is unfaithful God alone knows how many times."


Oh, wait.



"There's the America where Free Enterprise and creative destruction revitalize our economy, and there's the America where working for a GSE help destroyed the economy."


Oh, dammit. That won't work either. Shit!

Marriage vows normally contain a vow of fidelity. Civil marriages normally provide for infidelity as grounds for divorce.

It is the act of infidelity that is the violation; this attempt to manufacture a distinction involving 'lying about it' is specious.

I don't think you'd consider O.J. to have been less a murderer if he'd confessed to it, as opposed to 'lying' and proclaiming his innocence.

Funny thing is.... no where in any of the traditional wedding vows does it say anything about fidelity or troth.

Traditional wedding vows are still perhaps the most popular choice for those special words that will marry you. After all, there's a good reason they became sacrosanct classics. And if you're like me, they've also been engrained as "the wedding words" through years of attending weddings, watching movies and tv, and society at large. So if you're a traditional couple, look at these traditional wedding vows.:

Traditional Wedding Vows 1:
I, (name), take you (name), to be my (wife/husband), to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part.

Traditional Wedding Vows 2:
I, (name), take you, (name), to be my [opt: lawfully wedded] (husband/wife), my constant friend, my faithful partner and my love from this day forward. In the presence of God, our family and friends, I offer you my solemn vow to be your faithful partner in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad, and in joy as well as in sorrow. I promise to love you unconditionally, to support you in your goals, to honor and respect you, to laugh with you and cry with you, and to cherish you for as long as we both shall live.

Traditional Wedding Vows 3 (traditional civil ceremony vows):
(Name), I take you to be my lawfully wedded (husband/wife). Before these witnesses I vow to love you and care for you as long as we both shall live. I take you with all your faults and your strengths as I offer myself to you with my faults and strengths. I will help you when you need help, and I will turn to you when I need help. I choose you as the person with whom I will spend my life.

Traditional Wedding Vows 4:
I, (name), take you, (name), to be my beloved (wife/husband), to have and to hold you, to honor you, to treasure you, to be at your side in sorrow and in joy, in the good times, and in the bad, and to love and cherish you always. I promise you this from my heart, for all the days of my life.

Newt has redefined marriage. It is no longer one man, one woman.

Now it is one overly patriotic man, one woman, and as many mistresses as money and power can buy. Followed by an open marriage between the same man, another woman, and as many mistresses as money and power can buy. Followed by the same man, and a third woman and some Viagra.


Newt says, "I'm 68 now. I can't even get it up for Callista, so you can be sure my catting days are over. Wait! I mean, uh, I went to God for forgiveness. Yeah, that's it. You guys believe me, right?"

By the way - who's sock puppet are you, asswipe??

Tu quoque.

And did Kennedy have three wives?

Newt is in a league of his own. He's lowered the Family Values bar to the floor. All he has in common with JFK is his Catholicism, which isn't even genuine.

You didn't say anything about how many wives now did you? You commented on reinventing marriage and its standard.

The thing with throwing stones at glass houses ya know. Newt is not in a league of his own.

I know a lot about it. Newt makes the Catholic church look bad.

Nope. But he had loads of girlfriends. MM among em.

He kinda shared her with brother Bobby and Frank Sinatra and whoever else she decided to screw.

All the Kennedy boys and dear old dad were skirt chasers. Heard he and John shared Marlene Deitrich once upon a time.

Of course that shit doesn't bother me at all. If their wives put up with it then thats their problem.

Peoples personal life doesn't bother me at all. I could care if Newt had 6 wives.

Could Newt run the counry?? Thats what concerns me. Not how many damned wives he's had.
