Fox Psychologist Ablow: Gingrich’s Cheating Suggests He’ll Be A Strong President

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on January 22, 2012 · Flag

If this column by Fox News psychologist Dr. Keith Ablow isn’t the ultimate in Republican Rehab, I don’t know what is. In a jaw-dropping column on FoxNews.com, Ablow analyzes Newt Gingrich’s marital (mis)behavior and decides it may be all good for the country. Seriously.

Ablow insisted he was not moralizing, that he was focusing on what Gingrich’s behavior might mean “for the country, not for the future of his current marriage.”

So here’s what Ablow concluded:

Gingrich was so irresistible to three women (two of whom fell for whim while he was already married) that “I worry more about whether we’ll be clamoring for a third Gingrich term, not whether we’ll want to let him go after one.”

Because Gingrich delivered “incredibly painful truths” to two wives, “I can only hope Mr. Gingrich will be as direct and unsparing with the Congress, the American people and our allies. If this nation must now move with conviction in the direction of its heart, Newt Gingrich is obviously no stranger to that journey.”

The fact that his children from his first marriage “judge him 10 out of 10” is evidence that Newt is the “one who actually was aligned with their best interests.”

Finally, Ablow came to this gushing verdict: “So, as far as I can tell, judging from the psychological data, we have only one real risk to America from his marital history if Newt Gingrich were to become president: We would need to worry that another nation, perhaps a little younger than ours, would be so taken by Mr. Gingrich that it would seduce him into marrying it and becoming its president. And I think that is exceedingly unlikely.”

I don’t know about you but my jaw has dropped so low, I may never be able to close it again.

I stopped counting the number of squirrels running around in AblowHard’s head after I counted one sextillion.

By this logic, Charles Manson would make a good president. The ladies loved him, too.

@doors17: MSNBC is correct. President Obama’s 2009 speech was an address to a Joint Session of Congress, held in February, not a SOTUA. President Obama’s first SOTUA was delivered in 2010.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama_speech_to_joint_session_of_Congress,_February_2009

The SOTU is an annual report to Congress; as Obama only taken office a few weeks before, he was not qualified to speak on what transpired the past year . . .

@truman: Uh-huh. This is also oddly reminiscent of the time Sean Hannity claimed John McCain’ extramarital affair was justified due to his status as a POW.

Remember: IOKIYAR . . .

Is this the same “Dr” Allblow who opined that John Edwards (D) was unfit for public office because of his extra-marital affair?

Sounds like dokter Keeth has been dipping into his own homemade psychotropics.

FOX psychobabbler Keith Ablow has been riding charming Casey Anthony’s slender, shapely shoulders for publicity. Now he hopes to change hosts and hop aboard Big Newt’s manly, muscular frame. What a leech!

To complete this circle of jesters,“Blown” in charge of Health and Welfare along with Palin as Vice President we would be thoroughly amused while we were being destroyed.

Sorry for going off topic, but MSNBC keeps advertising that this coming Tuesday will be President Obama’s third State of the Union address. But this will be number four. 09, 10, 11 and this year. You do the math.

Absolutely!!
What this country needs is a world that worships at the altar of Newt’s penis!
(If they can find it!)

@doors 17. I was thinking of Hugh Hefner and George Clooney. But both are too liberal for “Dr” Allblow.

Well that settles it! What this country needs is a ticket of Micky Rooney/Larry King! Thanks doc.

Ablow’s article in a nutshell: Clinton’s blowjob made us weak, but Gingrich’s affairs will make us strong!

When’s he gonna change his name to Sellout McQuack, again?
