Title: The definition of Hypocrisy-Newt Gingrich
Post by: ACinKC on March 09, 2007, 10:45:24 am
Hypocrisy is the act of pretending or claiming to have beliefs, feelings, morals or virtues that one does not truly possess or practice. A person engaged in hypocrisy is called a hypocrite. --www.dictionary.com


They will be revising the definition as of today.  From this point forward it will have this picture followed by this article.

Gingrich Admits to Affair While Pursuing Clinton Over Lewinsky

March 9, 2007 — Setting the stage for his entry into the presidential race, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., gave a radio interview to be broadcast today with Focus on the Family's James Dobson, in which Gingrich for the first time publicly acknowledged cheating on his first and second wives.

"There were times when I was praying and when I felt I was doing things that were wrong. But I was still doing them," Gingrich said during the interview. "I look back on those as periods of weakness and periods that I'm not only not proud of, but I would deeply urge my children and grandchildren not to follow in my footsteps."



Jack?  Grinch?  You two seem to CRY about hypocrisy on here quite a bit.  I'm betting you wont defend his actions either.  My real question for you 2 is this.  If you decry and denounce so many in your party....why IS IT your party?  Pretty soon you'll have NONE left that you can hang your hat on. 

Just sayin...  Join us on the Dark Side and together we can rule the GALAXY!

Wasn't Gingrich, the one that started "The contract ON America ?   Noticed I said " ON", not "WITH"

Matty the Damned wonders if these two Shining Examples to Modern Youth prayed together on air after this heartfelt confession?

They probably did.

And was probably filled with with platitudes like, "In Your infinite wisdom, Ye sought to conveniently set the witch hunt against the greater enemy, William Jefferson Clinton..." and, "We can thank thee that Newt's temptations did not lead him into any homosexual trysts" and "We continue to humbly beseech thee to smite those United States Senators who did not vote to remove Clinton from office" and "Please, for the Love of Thee, give us some really good dirt on Obama."

Has anyone ever heard of John G. Schmitz?

He was very, very right-wing conservative, Catholic Californian politician in the 1960s and 1970s from Orange County.  He served in the California state senate and later went on to the House of Representatives.

He called the Watts riots a Communist operation, was a member of the John Birh society (which later expelled him for "extremism"), opposed all sex education in public schools, and was rabidly anti-abortion.  All in all, he was a consummate  crusader for "family values."

During a state senate committee hearing on abortion, he issued a press release entitled, "Senator Schmitz and His Committee Survive Attack of the Bulldykes."

He had extramarital affairs and was forced to admit to fathering two children out of wedlock in the early 1980s.  He still tried to run for the US Senate in 1982.

To their credit, the voters of California apparently felt rather differently and his candidacy went nowhere.

One of his children did fare rather well, in terms of publicity.

And who did this untiring supporter of family values father and raise?

You know her by her married name... a mid-90s media circus virtually ensured that you couldn't not hear about her.

Mary Kay Letourneau (nee Schmitz), who was sixth grade teacher pleaded guilty in 1997 to statutory rape... after committing dalliances with a 13 year old boy.

Really warms the heart, doesn't it?
