Truth Wins Out Calls Out Newt Gingrich in Full-Page Ad

Posted by on Thu, Feb 9, 2012 at 1:38 PM

As Towleroad writes, "In a salvo meant to hit Newt Gingrich before his Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) address tomorrow, Truth Wins Out, the non-profit organization that fights anti-LGBT religious extremism, has taken out a full-page ad in D.C.'s Roll Call publication calling Newt out on his marriage hypocrisy."

Fucker's a deadbeat dad, too. Marianne had to take him to court to get him to pay child support. Now, there's some nice fucking family values for you.

That's a great ad. Would also make a great poster...

I'd love to hear how the fundies dismiss Newt's, ahem, marital activities...

Oh on 2nd thought, no I wouldn't. I'm fixin' to go to lunch.

All this pointing out of hypocrisy isn't going to change the fact that his fans may possibly be most upset maybe by the fact the current CIC is not white and that all other considerations could possibly be very secondary.

@3, @5 so spend the 10 minutes re-typing it in a better font and forward it back to truthwinsout.org so it'll look nice the next time they buy an ad.

Why waste all of this effort on Gingrich when Ritt Money is the obvious nominee?

This is what's wrong with American politics. Too much time spent on politician's sex lives, not nearly enough attention on the moon colony.

yes, the typography is atrocious, but also i object to the quotation marks around "open marriage" - it implies that open marriages are scandalous in general and not just when newt wants one.

@3 I logged on to say the same thing. The content is great. The design is horrible!
