The Wall of Shame...

...gets a new member. Move over Rush Limbaugh and Bill Bennett, Newt Gingrich steps to the head of the class as the man who led the impeachment of Bill Clinton admits that he had an affair at the same time:

"WASHINGTON - Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich was having an extramarital affair even as he led the charge against President Clinton over the Monica Lewinsky affair, he acknowledged in an interview with a conservative Christian group.
"The honest answer is yes," Gingrich, a potential 2008 Republican presidential candidate, said in an interview with Focus on the Family founder James Dobson to be aired Friday, according to a transcript provided to The Associated Press. "There are times that I have fallen short of my own standards. There's certainly times when I've fallen short of God's standards.""

God's, Man's, the standards of decency...you hit them all. Then again how much can you expect from a guy named Newt:

"Newts can take several years to reach sexual maturity. Their main breeding season is between February and June. They hatch as tadpoles from eggs laid in ponds or slow-moving streams. In the case of triturus even brackish water is used, but most species are more picky. (see image on the right) Then they undergo metamorphosis, during which they commonly leave the water, only to return to the water to live out their adult lives. "

Metamorphosis--the new word for hypocrisy.
