WASHINGTON — Newt Gingrich says his passion for his country contributed to his marital infidelity. In an interview posted Wednesday by The Christian Broadcasting Network, Gingrich — who recently converted to Catholicism — said he had sought God's forgiveness for mistakes in his past. "There's no question at times of my life, partially driven by how passionately I felt about this country, that I worked far too hard and things happened in my life that were not appropriate," Gingrich said.

Things happened in his life 'cause he worked too hard? Poor victim!
You have the courage to tell the masses what no politician told them: you are inferior and all the improvements in your conditions which you simply take for granted you owe to the efforts of men who are better than you. Ludwig von Mises in a letter to Ayn Rand
Sounds like he's going after the big city northern and mid-western votes. I do find his "humping for Hey-Zeus" explanation a little strange,though.

While Gingrich is a slimey guy I am pretty sure he converted to Catholic because his current wife is Catholic.

I know people do that,but I don't get it. His wife is also a female,but I don't see him getting the surgery to become a female himself.

At least one of them wanted a Catholic wedding, and I somehow doubt it was Newt. I recall a re-run of MASH I saw where this uber right winger named Colonel Flagg... I also don't understand why anybody would want that. Why is having a sadistic fairy in a dress perform the ceremony that important ? Rhetorical question. Even if you explain it I won't be able to understand it.
