GOP Unqualified to Defend Marriage

Received this from a friend.  It’s startling how many of these guys who protest to defend marriage are divorcees.

Marriage is “the cornerstone of our society.” -Sen. Bill Frist

Let’s look at a few other Republican leaders and how they have honored
marriage in their lives:

Ronald Reagan - divorced the mother of two of his children to marry Nancy Reagan, who bore him a daughter only 7 months after the marriage.

Bob Dole - divorced the mother of his child, who had nursed him through thelong recovery from his war wounds.

Newt Gingrich - divorced his wife who was dying of cancer.

Dick Armey - House Majority Leader - divorced

Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas - divorced

Gov. John Engler of Michigan - divorced

Gov. Pete Wilson of California - divorced

George Will - divorced

Sen. Lauch Faircloth - divorced

Rush Limbaugh - Rush and his current wife Marta have six marriages and four
divorces between them.

Rep. Bob Barr of Georgia - Barr, not yet 50 years old, has been married
three times. Barr had the audacity to author and push the “Defense of
Marriage Act.” The current joke making the rounds on Capitol Hill is “Bob
Barr…WHICH marriage are you defending?!?

Sen. Alfonse D’Amato of New York - divorced

Sen. John Warner of Virginia - divorced (once married to Liz Taylor.)

Gov. George Allen of Virginia - divorced

Henry Kissinger - divorced

Rep. Helen Chenoweth of Idaho - divorced

Sen. John McCain of Arizonia - divorced

Rep. John Kasich of Ohio - divorced

Rep. Susan Molinari of New York - Republican National Convention Keynote
Speaker - divorced


So … homosexuals are going to destroy the institution of marriage? Wait a minute, it seems the Christian Heterosexual Republicans are doing a fine job without anyone’s help!

  1. Scott:

    This is an old list. Limbaugh’s already been divorced for the third time.

  2. xoff:

    I don’t see Paul Bucher on the list.

  3. Sue Moe:

    And I don’t believe that Dick Armey was ever divorced.

  4. John-david Morgan:

    Took much discipline, I think, for Jim to resist the urge to take more deserv-ed swipes at Charlie Sykes …

  5. Bill Stocks:

    Kudos on this one, Jim.
