One of Newt's former wives will reveal on ABC's Nightline tonight that he wanted an "open" marriage. (See the story at Huff Po) The response from the GOP field? "Eh, God'll forgive him." The hypocricy is sickening. The party of family values and traditional marriage accepts a man who has not only been married three times but, as it's now revealed, wanted to sleep around during the second?
It is quite clear that those claiming to vote their "values" and "morals" have neither. Their goal is not to legislate the Christian faith, nor is it to ensure a just nation founded on Biblical precepts. It is about voting for what they believe to be their faith. That is, voting for the comfortable charade they put on as a faith; voting for the golden calf they've named Jesus.
Christianity is about charity, real forgiveness, and doing what's best for society as a whole. The GOP embodies none of that. Rather, it embodies a mere blasphemous charade of those tenets, wearing them as a mask to obtain the support of willing dupes who'd rather believe a lie than embrace the truth. The fact that they're prepared to accept Newt Gingrich as their president, despite his blatant disregard for the beliefs they claim to hold, is ample evidence of such.
