Newt Gingrich Blasts CNN’s John King for Asking about his Ex-Wife with Debate’s First Question: “I am Appalled that You Would Begin a Presidential Debate on a Topic Such as This” – Video 1/19/12

Here is video of the opening question of tonight’s CNN GOP Presidential Debate in South Carolina where Newt Gingrich just destroyed moderator John King for asking him about his ex-wife Marianne’s interview right off the bat. Gingrich was indignant, and said he was tired of the liberal media covering for Barack Obama by attacking Republicans.

“I am appalled that you would begin a presidential debate on a topic such as this.”

Gingrich received two standing ovations from the crowd!

    If I was John King I’d ask, ‘How does ethic violations, cheating on your wives and at the trough of Fanny and Freddy make you a conservative?”

  • Blind Eye Jones

    Newt’s answer: “Well, John, I am a conservative because I only cheated on two of my three wives.”

    His answer rocked.  It’s amazing the lack of forgiveness that people have.  You cast the first stone if you have not sinned.  Yet we let presidents continue with ongoing sexual abuse in the WhiteHouse, setting off bombs and lying about it,  and say that past marital issues are the same thing.   But we all feel better attaching people so that just makes it right.  The country be damned to the likes of the ignorant socialist that doesn’t give a damn about anyone’s freedom but his own.

    His answer was brilliant, Brad.
