Mr. Gingrich, a Question about Marriage...

....................................

No, sir, this does not concern your current wife, once your congressional aide, with whom you carried on an illicit affair in the House of Representatives.

Nor is it about your second wife's recent statements about your wanting to continue being married to her while you carried on an affair with that congressional aide.

It isn't about the time or place you requested a divorce from your first wife, or why you let her and your children go hungry in an unlit house while you romanced your second wife.

I've heard plenty of details about those marriages, and wish to hear no more.

...............................

My question, Mr. Speaker: why should Americans trust you to keep that oath?

6. Here's an article discussing the court filings in Gingrich's first divorce...

http://www.cnn.com/2011/12/26/politics/gingrich-divorce-file/index.html

Scroll about halfway down the page to get to the info on Gingrich's refusal to provide adequate spousal and child support at that time. Jackie Gingrich had to rely on charity from her church in order to feed their children.

7. Thanks -- he's even MORE vile than I thought. Why are these girls (daughters) coming out

in support of him? Wait -- must be the money they hope to get someday.

4. I believe marriage is meant to be a sacred institution

between a man and a woman and his numerous mistresses. -Newt Gingrich

5. Newt, it is time to release your divorces, etc

I would like to see a certified copy of his divorces along with when and where you started your affairs with wife 2 & 3.
