When is this Mark Sanford guy gonna get a clue? First the governor of South Carolina gets caught having an affair and now he’s opening up about how he’s had questionable encounters with several women while married. “There were a handful of instances wherein I crossed the lines I shouldn’t have crossed as a married man, but never crossed the ultimate line,” Sanford said in a press conference with the Associated Press. Um, what exactly does that mean? Email flirting? Semi-regular BJs? Why voluntarily spout this information to the media?! Your unlucky kids are going to have to read about what a pig you are.
Plus, Sanford’s wife, Jenny, is on the worst roller coaster of her life. Although the couple hasn’t been living in the same house for weeks, the South Carolina statesman also told the AP that he’s trying to reconcile with her and “fall back in love” with her. Yet in the next breath, Sanford said he’ll be able to die “knowing I had met my soul mate”––in reference to Maria Belen Chapur, the woman he had an affair with. Unlike most politicians’ wives, Jenny better continue to not stand by Sanford’s side, and be a good role model for disrespected mothers and wives alike. [MSNBC]
