Newt Gingrich talks about family values & the sanctity of marriage when he divorced his first wife while she was recovering from chemo & he was having an affair with his secretary who then became his 2nd wife (of 3). Larry Craig, virulent anti gay campaigner was caught trying to blow dudes in an airport bathroom. Ted Haggard, fire and brimstone for the gays, later gets caught smoking meth and getting pounded by male prostitutes. I think its that they feel such shame about having feelings that they were brought up thinking to be horrible, that they try to "make up for it" by being super-tough on everyone else who acts on such feelings. Kind of like some immigrants are much more nationalistic regarding their home-country than the people who still live there, or converts to a religion being more hardline about it than people who were brought up in that religion. Its overcompensation because they feel like they have something to prove or make up for.
