So now Newt Gingrich's scorned second wife, Marianne, has stepped forward to say that Newt wanted an open marriage? Oh man, this is just entirely too much fun.
Newt's marital escapades have been fodder for late night comics for quite some time, but this little twist reveals something about the former Speaker of the House that I never would have guessed of someone who so closely resembles the Pillsbury Doughboy; Newt Gingrich is a pimp.
You think I'm lyin'? Check this out from the Washington Post:
In the four weeks after Gingrich asked for a divorce, the couple saw a counselor, and he seemed to vacillate, Marianne Gingrich said. She had learned the name of his paramour, Callista Bisek — now his wife — although Newt Gingrich never talked about her by name. Callista had worked in the House for a GOP representative from Wisconsin, her home state, and then as clerk of the House Agriculture Committee.
After one counseling session, Newt Gingrich asked Marianne for an “open marriage” — though not in exactly those words — so that he could see other women, she said.
Marianne, who had attended services in a Baptist church with her husband, refused.
“He said the problem with me was I wanted him all to myself,” she said. “I said, ‘That’s what marriage is.’ He said [of Callista], ‘She doesn’t care what I do.’ ”
Marianne said, “He was asking me for an open marriage, and I wouldn’t do it.”
Later, Marianne said, her husband told her, “In a few years I’m going to run for president. She’s going to help me become president.”
Pimpin' ass Newt. Go 'head, boy! Iceberg Slim ain't got nothin' on you. Ice-T neither. Matter of fact, they just pretenders to the throne, man. You got the crown fo' sho'. I mean, you didn't just call up your wife and ask for a divorce after sleeping around, which is hardly worthy of a raised eyebrow in these times. No, you asked your wife for a divorce, but then you did some swift pimp calculus and figured it was better (mo pimplike) to go for the gold and keep her in the stable while you roped in Callista so you could throw a saddle on her back and ride that helmet head of hair all the way to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Da-dada-DAAAA!
You need your own theme music, Newt. Seriously. Is 2Live Crew still on the scene?
