Irony is lost on ole Newt…

Well…You know I didn’t watch the repub debate last night, but I did read about it in the papers this morning and one of the things that I saw as the ultimate irony has to do with the outrage that ole Newt showed to Jon King when asked about his affairs. As you know, I don’t think that much of a candidates personal life should be part of the political process, but, when a politician has the track record that Newt has, it should be fair game because it goes to his character. If you remember, ole Newt was one of the repubs that was leading the impeachment charge in Clinton’s Monica Lewinsky affair, and in comparison, what ole Newt did in his life is so much worse with his serial affairs and general callousness toward the wives he was cheating on. I think this shows that Newt lacks any sliver of empathy that I feel a politician needs to be able to understand the rest of the people in the country…geez….
