| | Why do you guys keep bring up Newt Gingrich? This has nothing to do with Newt Gingrich. This is the Talk/Hilary Clinton page. Hilary Clinton, and her husband Bill, clearly have practiced an "open marriage" in every sense of the term that the original authors of the book of the same title intended, as the Clinton's lives, careers, and relationship, of 40 years, and all sources, attest.

| | + | :::::::::::: RobS, that is not the definition of open marriage that the rest of the world uses. That is certainly not the definition that was used in the interview with Marianne Gingrich. A relationship where the woman is free to choose to have a career and the man is free to have friendships with women is actually referred to as a "normal marriage." If that were the real definition, I am fairly certain that a large percentage of marriages would be characterized as "open." |
| | + | PS: it is not enough to cite sources for a claim. The sources have to be RELEVANT, and all your sources have done is tell us what we already know and have sources for: Bill cheated, Hillary put up with it semi-secretly, probably for political reasons. |
| | + | PPS: we keep mentioning Gingrich because the idea of including the "open marriage" claim by his wife was rightly rejected as irrelevant gossip. If it's irrelevant when Gingrich's ex-wife tells a reporter that he wanted an open marriage, it's doubly irrelevant when an editor on Conservapedia simply decides that their marriage constituted an open marriage.[[User:RachelW|RachelW]] 18:13, 22 January 2012 (EST) |
| | + | PPPS: True story: my mother met Bill at a charity event once. They spoke briefly and took a picture together. In the picture, he has his hand around her waist, low enough to almost feel her butt and definitely low enough to be inappropriate. My mom didn't even notice until after she saw the picture. Now that's charisma.[[User:RachelW|RachelW]] 18:13, 22 January 2012 (EST) |
