Newt V. John King

I wonder how long he prepared this comeback?  He had to know it was coming, and it was no surprise that it was question 1.  


I don't think it was out of bounds to ask it, but you have to love Newt's ability to stand the heat.  


Here is my view, cheating is a sign of character.  There is no way around that.  But the truth is that this is old news.  He doesn't run from, he doesn't excuse it, and it seems that he has changed his heart and his life.  The two people who got hurt the most by his behavior, his children, have let it go and it is time the rest of us do as well.  I feel sorry for his second wife.  She slept with a married man, broke up a marriage, hurt two children, then acts shocked when he did the same to her.  There is such a thing called kharma.  

Is Jesse Jackson Jr. A Race Traitor Too?

Apparently Jesse Jr. had an affair with a restaurant hostess.  Congressmen having affairs is nothing new, and not all that shocking really.  But, this woman happens to be white and Jesse Jr., as you may know, is not.  Apparently, his wife is aware of the situation and ultimately it is between the two of them. 

I am not one to say one word about these types of relationships.  Love is love, if you skin tones happen to differ, so what.  It isn't anyone else's business as far as I am concerned.  But, sadly, I do know that there are plenty of people who don't agree with that. 

Many months back I did post on some comments that I read on a blog about a statement made by Eleanor Norton Holmes about Justice Thomas.  Her implication was that he was not "black" enough for her tastes. The comments made by liberals went off about Justice Thomas' wife Ginni, who happens to be white.  They were none to thrilled about this.  The usual slurs were used.  "Oreo", "Uncle Tom", "Traitor" and on it went. 

So is this true as well for Jesse Jr.?  Because logically it should be, right?  Just Askin'.
