Did I miss something?  

Bill Clinton did lie.  He lied to the press, to the American people ("I did not have sexual relations with that woman") and he lied under oath to the grand jury.

I haven't heard where Newt lied.  All I heard was him being asked if he had an affair, and him admitting it.  

He may have cheated on his wife, but I guess I didn't hear him lieing about it.

Please show me a quote of him lieing, cause I missed it.  Thanks

How do you know?  Did she ask him?  Did she care?  Was she seeing someone else?

Maybe you are just stretching to accuse someone you don't like.

If we add lieing to the wife, then we add another lie to Clinton the scumbags legacy.

Clinton spread lies faster than a crop duster spreads bug spray, Newt only was dishonest towards his wife.

you may feel free to justify it as much as you wish, but the fact remains, he took an oath, he broke it.  he acted in a manner which was inconsistant with the outward moral character which he was trying to progress and he led an attack against a sitting president and allowed for the issue to be turned into one about fidelity (though now he says it was about purjury..whatever) and he made us go through that while he was making a mockery of what other republicans consider to be an institution.  (marriage)

Contemplate each of our leaders as individuals and hold them to the highest standards lest we get what we deserve.

Stretching for the moon under the guise of "moral outrage" now?

Clinton was the most immoral president this country has seen, and the behind the scenes behaviour of the the Clintons is beyond what even Hollywood could write.  Clinton didn't have just one affair, he bedded every woman he could, he exposed himself to women who didn't want his attention, and he sexually harrassed others.   Then he lied about it all.  He lied to his wife, to all of us, and under oath.  He was disbarred and embarrassed everyone close to him and our nation.

To compare Newts behavior with Clintons is a hell of a stretch.

So, if I tell my wife there is no Pepsi in the fridge when I know there is one can left, that would be the same as a man coming to the door of a 14 year old girl and saying he is there to check the gas meter when he is really there to rape and kill her?

Newt hasn't been dissbarred yet.  He may be your next president though.  :rofl

Dago, the Republican party, of which Newt was the head, ran successfully to take control of congress based on the idea they were more "moral" and "responsible". Newt was neither. And, like it or not, JB88 is exactly right on his points. He was no better than Clinton on this issue. Legally, sure, Clinton lied to a grand jury, and he should have done time. This does not negate the hypocrisy of Newt WRT moral behavior.

Newt is a scumbag and is unfit for leadership.
