Senator Coburn Has Problem With Newt Gingrich’s “Commitment To Marriage”
I predict that should Newt Gingrich gain the 2012 GOP nomination Tom Coburn will not be considered for the ticket…….just thinking.
This should make for some interesting back and forth in the coming days.
For the record I agree with Senator Coburn on this matter. But one rarely states things so bluntly in an interview.
However, I wonder why Coburn remains silent on the others in the Republican Party, such as Senator Vitter, who is married but had his phone number in the rolodex of a prostitute. I guess Coburn thinks there are some jobs such as being senator that allows for such ‘benefits’, while others like president requires a more chaste lifestyle. If I had been the one interviewing Coburn there would have been a follow-up on this matter.
Coburn made it clear that he won’t be on Newt Gingrich’s 2012 presidential bandwagon.
Gingrich “is a super-smart man, but he doesn’t know anything about commitment to marriage,” he said of the thrice-married former House speaker. ”He’s the last person I’d vote for for president of the United States. His life indicates he does not have a commitment to the character traits necessary to be a great president.”
The Republicans are so funny, when the economy is good you say let’s all celebrate “Cinco de Mayo, my brothers” but when the economy is down “it’s all your fault, you damn immigrant”. When most Americans (with Latin America roots) go to the polls this November we will remember that the GOP has gone on a nationwide rant in proposing and passing several anti-immigration legislation (that our US Courts continue to strike down) and have continue to blame the immigrant for the flat economy or worse. We will remember who stands with us and who stands against us, so trying to stop it now is somewhat funny, but go ahead, you will not change our minds. And if thats not enough the more radical of the GOP are now attacking our Constitution and our Bill of Rights, in a misguided attempt to garner some much needed votes, they really are fools, and leading the GOP towards obscurity because they are no longer a party of ideas, just of empty suits. Your hate made you do it, in November; you will reap what you have sown. I wonder what Abraham Lincoln would say about todays GOP, he unlike the current GOP was a man of ideas.
PS – For 2012, Newt just wants another fling with another intern.
