Gingrich story untrue

I had heard for years that Newt Gingrich swinishly dropped into the hospital room where his wife was suffering from terminal cancer and tried to get her to sign divorce papers. Didn't happen, according to his daughter.

I am glad to hear that he has been cleared of what was always an extremely troubling charge.

I my lifetime we've gone from being naive to being too cynical and ready to believe the worst of public figures. Many of them do seem to deserve it I suppose.

Yeah, but it's Newt, with his magical ability to turn gold into, um, not gold... in his own words...

Oh, he's still got baggage, to be sure!

"swinishly dropped into"! Somewhere, "Swinish Capitalist" from old Blairistan is not a happy camper.:)
