Newt's first wife was his high school geometry teacher

Was Newt a victim of an improper teacher/student relationship? Of course that is Georgia in the 1960s.

How Jackie and Newt Met:


Newt met Jackie when he was in high school when Jackie was his geometry teacher. Newt and Jackie secretly dated until their wedding.

When my sister (now a middle school principal) was a student teacher, she volunteered to oversee a junior high school dance, and this was played in her honor!

Never mind the fact that she was his teacher or that he was having an affair with his second wife whom he asked for an open marriage with while already cheating on her with his third wife while he was prosecuting a sitting President for getting a sexual favor from an intern during a standoff between the White House and the Congress led by Newt over balancing a budget.

It is perposterous that anyone would question anthing Newt does, those questions should only be reserved for Democrats and anyone running against Newt.
