Rep. Enid Waldholtz, R-Utah, upon finding out that her husband is being investigated on suspicion of embezzlement, demands that he be found and prosecuted, then files for divorce for the politically sound reason of disassociating herself from ``his wrongdoing.''
Does she need the office she holds more than she needs to salvage her marriage?
Newt Gingrich is looking for money to finance his own little war in Iran (why?) while the federal government has reduced funds for Samaritan House, which will result in the closure of 10 shelters for battered women.
If these are examples of Republican ``family values,'' I don't need it. They can't give big business enough money while they continue to take from the students, the disabled and the elderly. I would never in good conscience be able to vote Republican.
