is he a carpenter who might get all upset pondering the tax consequences of possibly, sorta in the near future maybe going into business for himself which then, who knows?, anything could happen earn him more than $250k at some point?
or is he really a professional community activist who never once during his adult life earned a single shekel making something with his hands?
then there's his radical approach to replacing our current health care mess with his radical single-healer option. sure it seems to work for individual lepers, a blind guy or three, an occasional victim of demon possession and at least one dead guy who made it back alive. but how's that gonna benefit the rest of us?
finally, as we all know jesus can be almost supernaturally patient and forgiving...until he's not. who expected his reaction to a certain fig tree. how much sanctimonious sanctorum will be too much?
for that matter, if newt is 1/1000 as smart as he imagines himself to be, he'll go outa his way to avoid mutual appearances at or close to wells in samaria--specially wells with openings 60" in diameter or wider.
