    Hmmmm, so much for what the GOP leaders really believe about family values.

    From:http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/03/us/politics/rudy-giuliani-presidential-race.html?ref=politics

    Rudolph W. Giuliani, a former New York mayor and an ally of Donald J. Trump’s, suggested on Sunday that “everybody” commits infidelity, setting off a backlash on Twitter.

    The remark came during an exchange on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” after Chuck Todd, the show’s host, asked Mr. Giuliani whether he was “the right person” to bring up former President Bill Clinton’s infidelities in this heated campaign.

    “You have your own infidelities, sir,” Mr. Todd said.

    “Everybody does,” Mr. Giuliani responded. “You know, I’m a Roman Catholic and I confess those things to my priest.”

    The reaction from Twitter users was swift and unforgiving.

    “No Rudy — not everyone does,” wrote Diana Hess, a self-described Hillary Clinton supporter.

    “Um, I’ve been married for almost 20 years. No infidelities,” wrote John Bielski, whose Twitter account describes him as a labor lawyer in Philadelphia. Mr. Bielski, whose Twitter profile says he loves his wife and daughters more than his favorite sports teams, went on to ask, “Am I doing marriage wrong?”

    Amazing, isn't it? There's Guiliani, married three times, counseling Trump on how to exploit the Clinton's problems with their marital relationship, telling us we all have infidelities. Meanwhile, evangelical Trumpies just look the other way and mutter, "but, but...SCOTUS..."

    The point is: That Bill Clinton is a serial rapist. It spans decades.
    The issue is not infidelity. Not that we, as Christians, don't regard that as a grievous sin.
    But rape is even worse.

    Hillary is not off the hook in this. She has demeaned and threatened the dozen or so
    known women that Bill has violated.

    That is the issue. She certainly cannot be seen as a defender of women. She is a lying hypocrite.

    OP is about a serial adulterer telling Christians (and others) that they all have infidelities. Besides, Bill's indiscretions were 20 years ago. If that's so long ago that Trumpies can brush off Trump losing $916 million in the 90's why keep bringing up Bill Clinton's issues?

    Bill Clinton is not running for president, Donald Trump is and is the one under the microscope now. All this that you folk bring in about Hillary is simply smoke and mirrors.

    I say that rape is not merely an infidelity. Bill is guilty of multiple assaults upon a dozen women or so that we are aware of. And he has probably done some rather wicked acts with teen girls, if not younger on Pleasure Island too.
    Well, if Hillary gets her power wish of being President the Rapist will bring even more disgrace to the Oval Office.

    She is Bill's enabler. She not only ran defense --but hideous offence against Bill's prey.

    Way to water down Bills rapes as mere "indiscretions."

    You do know about the rape allegation against Trump by a teenaged girl, right?

    Good gosh. I would have thought they at least had enough sense to know not to let Giuliani be the surrogate on marital infidelities.

    Is this the amateur hour?

    Why on earth is Giuliani still talking? So we've got Trump, whose first wife accused him of rape, and is they've married being surrogated for by another serial adulterer about the Clinton marriage?

    This is the same Trump campaign that has Roger Ailes advising them?

    That whole group needs to go have two seats.
