My problem with her 'convictions' is that they obviously don't seem to apply to her. Divorces three times, pregnant by someone other than her husband - even though she ended up marrying the father (her 3rd husband) AFTER her second husband adopted those children. How is this upholding the 'sanctity of marriage'?
She's just another case of 'do as I say, not as I do'.
