    All indignancy aside, Sanford and his ilk have been spending decades making what a woman does with her body their business. What's good for the goose, is good for the gander.

    And Faux News has "mistakenly" identified him as a Democrat.


    Which, actually, I kind of understand - Republican affairs usually involve more bondage and airport bathrooms.

    Did anyone notice how his parting words were, "I hurt HER, I hurt the people of South Carolina, and I hurt my wife"??? Way to apologize to your MISTRESS FIRST, Governor Douchebag.

    @Penny_Esq has a new job!: Yeah, I was wondering about that sentence. Could it be: "I hurt her, I hurt my wife." where the her IS the wife? It's kind of ambiguous.

    @pear.shaped.Sara: You are more generous than I am. I heard it as a mea culpa to the mistress first, then the state, then his wife. But it's possible he's slightly less of an asshole than I believe him to be.

    Also, as an atheist, what the FUCK with all the "it's harder for a person of faith to have an affair" and "it's supposed to protect you from yourself"? Guess God's law isn't really enforced much, eh Sanford?


    Furthermore, LULZ @ "this press conference is a consequence of breaking God's law"

    Ugh, how dumb do politicians have to be to keep doing this sort of thing? Personally I don't give a fuqq about ANYBODY's sex life and don't think fidelity should be a requirement for public office, but sheesh. Does it EVER occur to ANY of these guys "hey, hurr hurrr, political sex scandals tend to blow way the shit up here, MAYBE I should keep it in my pants until I'm a private citizen again?"

    Do not bring God into this, jerk off. Just because you couldn't keep your damn pants on and you're a freakin state official. Did you seriously think that you were above this?


    I suspect he was sexting (which is my new favorite verb).


    I'm wondering if John and/or Kate will be bringing up God's Laws in the next episode.

    @TXTeacher: These scum-of-the-earth bible-thumpers always have to twist things so they still come out on top (in bed!). Whilst they're admitting an extramarital affair and lying to the state they govern, they have to pull the god card to let you know there're still holier-than-THOU. Atheists, especially. I have more ethics in my pinky finger than the entire GOP.

    Well at least he has arrived as a politician. The fetishy extramarital affair for conservative bible thumpers seems like the thing to do, like celebs doing a sex tape or a paparazzi cooter shot.

    So much of this story confuses me-- but I'm most confused by his assertion that a relationship "developed" over time "very innocently." It takes effort to seduce someone in another country. I mean, it would still be gross for him to cheat on his wife with a co-worker who is in his orbit 24/7. But it would at least make some sense. It's like he went way way way out of his way to get into a bad situation that would tank his marriage and his career. This is a whole new low in political narcissism.

    @Lana Leigh loves Meryl Streep: If you can get him within 50 feet of one of my friends, I think you might have the situation you so greatly desire. Said friend has a massive silver fox crush on Crist and wants to nail that six ways to Sunday.

    Am I the only one reminded of "To Catch a Predator". "We talked online and that's why I had to drive 300 miles to have sex with an underage girl." Argentina?
