I knew it would be just a matter of hours after the CNN debate ended before liberals and Democrats would blast the Republicans for declining to criticize Newt Gingrich’s philandering, including an accusation by his second wife that he wanted “an open marriage.”
Over at The Hill, Brent Budowsky’s feelings pretty much sum things up:
“… And isn’t it amazing that Newt Gingrich’s adultery seems to be a big plus with many conservatives, so long as he attacks CNN? Hypocrites! If a liberal Democrat behaved like Gingrich, they would call for his eternal damnation.
“… Yet, aren’t many conservatives hypocrites for hating CNN more than they are willing to criticize adultery by Newt? Imagine if Barack Obama was found to be committing adultery and proposing an open marriage. Some — not all — on the right are phonies. They are political haters and moral hypocrites who would attack and condemn behavior by liberals or Democrats that they excuse or ignore by conservatives or Republicans.”
I suspect Monica Lewinsky would agree.
Republicans don't commit sins, just condemn it
