Gingrich gets confronted about his sleazebag lifestyle by Student..
Those damned students asking the really hard questions of the sleaziest or the sleaze politicians.. every day I hope and pray that he runs, and some some freak of nature gets nominated.. the left would have a field day with this admitted adulterer.... but now that he has become a catholic all be forgiven and the voters have forgot..
How about those interns Newt, you know those ones who used to go to the parking lot with you???
At least the left when the John Edwards Affair(s) came to light disavowed themselves from him, but for some reason he is still welcomed by the right, the party of family values

Quote:
PHILADELPHIA — Newt Gingrich's speech at the University of Pennsylvania Tuesday night quickly took a turn for the dramatic when the first student to question him brought up his admitted extra-marital affair and accused him of being “hypocritical” for espousing moral values.
"You adamantly oppose gay rights... but you've also been married three times and admitted to having an affair with your current wife while you were still married to your second," Isabel Friedman, president of the Penn Democrats, said to Gingrich. "As a successful politician who's considering running for president, who would set the bar for moral conduct and be the voice of the American people, how do you reconcile this hypocritical interpretation of the religious values that you so vigorously defend?"
"I'll bet almost everybody here can gather the thrust of your question," he said. "I appreciate the delicacy and generosity in the way it was framed. ... I hope you feel better about yourself.
“I've had a life which, on occasion, has had problems,” he added. “I believe in a forgiving God, and the American people will have to decide whether that their primary concern. If the primary concern of the American people is my past, my candidacy would be irrelevant. If the primary concern of the American people is the future... that's a debate I'll be happy to have with your candidate or any other candidate if I decide to run."
