1st?

yeah! Gold…
Now about this guy? so what? his wife kicked him out and he went to go see his side joint.

Them DAMN REPUBLICANS.,,, They are ALWAYS backstabbing & cheating!

I’m still floored by this. . .I never bought the Appalachian Trail hiking story, but I didn’t expect this story to come out. He’s married and has four sons. How humiliating for his family. SMH.

And this is the SAME dude that was on Clinton jock about Monica….Edward about his side piece and Gov. Paterson about his side ass.

wow, what a shocker. another hypocritical republican gets caught with his pants down. surprise, surprise LOL.

those republicans sure are great examples of morality and family values. SMH.

lol, are they sure it’s a woman he had the affair with? after all, he is a republican….

This shyt was straight HILARITY yesterday! He told staff he was going hiking on the Appalachian Trail and hopped a flight to Argentina to get some booty instead??? LMAO! Busted and disgusted….

Also, I thought he resigned his post as head of the Governor’s association or something. He made no mention of resigning from office, and probably won’t….

I was born and raised in SC. I just moved to Atlanta five months ago so I know all about Governor Sanford! He is a disgrace and needs to step down as governor. Who would respect him as governor now? First, he created all this controversy by not wanting to accept the much needed stimulus money and now this! He needs to go and move to Argentina permanently and let someone else step in as governor! God knows that can’t be any worse than him!

He’s wrong – but how many fellas have been to Argentina??? I have they have some of the finest women on the planet. He got turned out by some latin lovin’. See “Sydney™” above for the evidence of the whoppin she put on his country bamma azz.

These niccas are crazy! Throwing away your political career for a jumpoff? WTF?

@Sydney™ – morning ma, how are you? So did he resign his post as Governor?

@ SASSY…me too.

I keep telling y’all about the “Power of Pu$$y”… SMH

SOME of us men will do the STUPIDIEST sh*t in the world with NO REGARD to the consequences of our actions over some pu$$y…

If y’all Ladies knew of the power that you held in between your legs… SMH

@Sydney™ – That letter is crazy! LOL! Yeah, his nose is WIDE open! I keep telling these ladies – the power of the PU**Y is amazing, IF you harness it right… lol!

@Missunderstood

“Also, I thought he resigned his post as head of the Governor’s association or something. He made no mention of resigning from office, and probably won’t….”

Hey, no, he hasn’t resigned from his governor post yet, but there are calls for his resignation. He looks like a complete idiot right now.

I feel so sorry for his wife. I read her statement yesterday on CNN.com, and she apparently found out about the affair five months ago and decided to ask him to leave a few weeks ago, so she reportedly truly did not know where he was this Father’s Day weekend. Like she was quoted as saying, she was busy being a mom to their boys while he was out gallivanting in Buenos Aires. He was clearing his head alright. SMH.

@Missunderstood

“@Sydney™ – That letter is crazy! LOL! Yeah, his nose is WIDE open! I keep telling these ladies – the power of the PU**Y is amazing, IF you harness it right… lol!”

Girl, a friend of mine made me crack up last night when she said that he was “(blank)-whipped.” He traveled between continents. He’s totally gone, and so is his career and aspirations to be a 2012 presidential candidate.

Some of these wives are so stupid. I am so sick of America and their bullshyt “family values” crap. I really don’t blame him for going after that prime South American azz but like someone just said he should have headed to Rio instead of Argentina.

*and so are his career and aspirations*

*Missunderstood

BTW, his e-mails are posted in their entirety at thestate.com. Pretty embarrassing stuff.

He needs to step down. Why does it seem like when a Democrat(politician) get caught up in an “affair” scandal they always get kicked out of office?

However, Republicans who get caught up seem to keep their positions in spite of the scandals.

“juicy got him crazy…got him crazy….juicy!!!”

@Slide Like A Fresh Pair of Gators – ‘The power of P*’ – we were on the same page….

Bosspip please read jandsmama’s comment. Sandford did not resign as Gov. of South Carolina.

I guess it’s ok to check a man’s phone “sometimes”… SMH

SIKE!!! Don’t y’all do that sh*t!!!

Opps, should read Sanford.

@SYDNEY
“LOL, yup, he’s going to “Cassanova” himself right out of office.

So, I tried to think of a list of male politicians who have fallen because of their “indiscretions.” Feel free to add:

– Eliot Spitzer, NY
– Sen. Ensign, NV, just admitted to having an extramarital affair last week
– John Edwards, political career is pretty much kaput, wife has a new book, verdict is still out on paternity of his mistress’s baby, I just heard his former aide (the one who claimed to be the child’s father) may also have a new tell-all book coming out
– Bill Clinton, ’nuff said

The wife better get to the clinic ASAP!

@Man

“That puss mighta been worth it tho!”

It’s going to have to be once this all shakes out. I hope the destruction of his family and the pain inflicted on his wife and four sons is worth it as well. Public humiliation and ridicule is always worth a good romp in the sack, right?

*are always worth*

He resigned as the head of the governors council.

Not his position as govenor.

@Man

“His family ain’t goin “destruct.” LOL.”

Spoken like a true bachelor-for-life.

Your opinion may change if you read his wife’s letter on CNN.com. The pain behind her words is palpable. While he’s out crossing continents for sex, she’s being a mother to their sons, and she holds respect for the sanctity of marriage. She said they’re attempting to reconcile and haven’t given up on the marriage completely, but it’s a done deal, IMHO. The man was in Argentina this week. It’s not over.

that puss mighta been worth it tho!
@ Man I Just Don’t Care
Funny enough I don’t think so because no matter how strong a man claims to be,the resentment he will feel from his children will cripple him.

I think, anyone with sense, should automatically assume that this is what ALL politicians are doing so you aren’t dissapointed when it finally comes out, im telling you…this is the way to think! save yourselves!

_______________________________________________________________

I’m HIGHLY suspicous of that. Didn’t SHE kick him out BEFORE the alleged “affair.” What was SHE doin?

I think the reason she was so “willing to reconcile the marriage” is because she had her own dirt goin on. I’m just sayin.

@Cat Eyes

“Funny enough I don’t think so because no matter how strong a man claims to be,the resentment he will feel from his children will cripple him.”

Agreed. Not only did their father violate their mother’s trust, his actions are plastered across national headlines.

“I’m HIGHLY suspicous of that. Didn’t SHE kick him out BEFORE the alleged “affair.” What was SHE doin?”

The e-mails between Sanford and his lover started last summer. His wife, Jenny, asked him to leave two weeks ago, long after the affair had developed and she learned about his infidelity.

From her public statement:

“When I found out about my husband’s infidelity I worked immediately to first seek reconciliation through forgiveness, and then to work diligently to repair our marriage,” she said in a release. “We reached a point where I felt it was important to look my sons in the eyes and maintain my dignity, self-respect, and my basic sense of right and wrong. I therefore asked my husband to leave two weeks ago.”

Damn, she got that crack p#ssy. Ol boy was missing for 7 Days and didn’t call the job or check on the home front. This eggbert looking cat lost everything.

Your children goin love you regardless….unless “someone” TELLING them not to.

@ Man
I’m not talking about loving him,I’m talking about RESPECTING him.

I wonder why it’s always the men who get into positions of power and lose their flipping minds??? You don’t see Margaret Thatcher and Condi Rice doing this type of shyt!!!

I would vote for “Fred G.Sandford” First!!!!!!!!!

@Man

Wow. How telling.

Jenny Sanford has been with her husband for decades, they have four sons, and she supported the formation of his political career. She has a multitude of reasons for wanting to try to make it work. He’s her HUSBAND, not her boyfriend, not her weekend lover. Her HUSBAND.

@Sydney, my bad, in my list, they didn’t all fall because of their secrets, but they all had extra-marital affairs…

And there is one I can’t recall that was in regards to a politician sleeping w/ males (on the DL – who was that??)
@ misunderstood
You’re talking about good ole Jim McGreevey!My God,I even read the book-scandalous,he said he even had that man in their bed while the wife was giving birth and never changed the sheets because he wanted to treasure the time-yuck!

LOL, I think I tried to block Kwame out of my mind. Yeah, JFK had a reported history with women. Are you referring to the married NJ governor who came out a while ago, McGreevey? He was on The Today Show this morning discussing Sanford.

“I wonder why it’s always the men who get into positions of power and lose their flipping minds??? You don’t see Margaret Thatcher and Condi Rice doing this type of shyt!!!”

You have a point there, and some are speculating on how things may be different if more women were in high power political positions.

I only use my P*SSY for good….not evil….well maybe sometimes….okay okay okay…often.

A woman with that many kids from a powerful man is not tryna run out and throw the pu$$y around for a few good times. trust me it doesn’t make sense.

she’s a lady of morals read her statements

Please don’t degrade her like that.

She was a good wife….she actually found out five months ago and had been trying to work it out ever since . two weeks ago she finally asked him to leave.

@ Sydney
You see,some people never think about tomorrow-they think that whatever they do is only their problem.They don’t realize until its too late that their decisions affect EVERYONE in their lives.The wife now is probably in the clinic panicking,the children have to be harrassed by the media wherever they go because their dad is an idiot and yet at the same time,this man will have the nerve to want respect from his chilsren.You know what? Respect is earned in every aspect of life and I’m sure those children do not appreciate the humiliation he has caused them.

Sounds to me like she was the only one trying to reconcile, and he was content to keep doing what he was doing. In the end, she had to ask him to leave in order to maintain her dignity and respect in front of her children (all males I might add. great example dad…) I also agree w/ your last statement, any wife worth her salt is going to try and salvage their marriage before throwing it away on what could be a casual indiscretion. Seems like she changed her tune when she found it was more than that….

Brother, I totally agree with you. This woman obviously has high morals and takes her marriage and role as a wife and mother very seriously. There is no “dirt” on her part. This is on him, and only him, but, unfortunately, his selfishness, lack of restraint and foresight, has hurt his entire family.

@Cat Eyes

“Respect is earned in every aspect of life and I’m sure those children do not appreciate the humiliation he has caused them.”

I totally concur. I can’t imagine what they’re going through right now. It’s painful enough to go through this type of emotional upheaval in private, much less in the public eye and in steady news rotation. If he has an iota of respect for his family left, he’ll just step down and fade into obscurity.

@Missunderstood

“In the end, she had to ask him to leave in order to maintain her dignity and respect in front of her children.”

Yes, from her statement, that appears to be her reasoning. She must still be reeling from the news of the affair itself. That’s a lot to digest on her own, much less in front of her children.

Usually they go out kicking, screaming and lying. This man is like “F” it – I’m caught and I quit. LMAO That Argentinian booty got him WHIPPED. He ready and willing to give it all up for Maria. lol
His wife is sticking by his side, even though he’s leaving Politics. I give them 6 months before he moves to South America.

@Missunderstood

“I also agree w/ your last statement, any wife worth her salt is going to try and salvage their marriage before throwing it away on what could be a casual indiscretion. Seems like she changed her tune when she found it was more than that….”

From the outside looking in, it appears, at least to me, that she still has hope and may still be in some denial about the depth of the extramarital relationship. It’s a sad situation.

OR moves Maria to America. lol

*she could make a mint*

the only thing i can hold against his wife is the way she used to behave when sanford first came in office here in sc. howeverz, gotta give him playa points cuz sanford is down the the latina sistahs.

Hi Sydney! He put his heart and soul into that email.

I like how he was so apologetic in his press conference, but he didn’t think about his wife or his family while he was getting his manhood stroked!!

The mistress may have been a friend at one point, but the minute the feelings between the two of them changed he should have stop dealing with her altogether.

@Rome

“and embarrassed an entire state!!!!”

And this is the same governor who didn’t want to use economic stimulus funds to repair dilapidated schools in the state, right?

YOU FUKD YOUR GOVERNERSHIP UP FOR MIND SEX?, ..DUMB FUK,…THIS IS KARMA, SANFORD YOU AZZ WIPE YOUR REFUSING TO TAKE THAT STIMULUS BILL CAME BACK TO BITE YOU IN THE AZZ,… MORON!

“Hi Sydney! He put his heart and soul into that email.”

Along with his little head.

@Man

“She condoned it in the sense that she still STAYED with him AFTER she found out. She CLAIMS that she threw him out based on having her “diginty and respect” in front of her sons. Wouldn’t that have ALSO been the case when she FIRST found out?”

I’m going to have to get you out of soap opera land. This woman has four sons she needed to think of when she learned about the affair. It’s easy for others to sit back and say they would have just packed up and left, but she has a family. From the events of the past week, she has been the one who has been at home with her children while her husband continues his sexual liaison. It’s not as cut-and-dry as you seem to want to make it. And I can totally understand why she wanted to keep it private. Look at today’s coverage.

“But how was she being a “wife?””

Again, what do you mean? It appears that you’re trying to assign some blame to her for her husband’s decision and actions. Are you? And, if so, why?

Sydney™

Not in “Soap Opera” land… just in reality land. Yes, it is “easy to sit back and say she should have packed up and left.” Just like it’s easy for us to sit back and throw stones at the Governor Sanford. Since we agree that is not “cut-and-dry” I just realize that it takes TWO people for a marriage/relationship to deteriorate.

Now, I believe that “blame” is a strong word. I simply question what is the other side to the story.

@Rome

“exactly!!!! and that’s in the state with the highest rate of unemployment in america!!! WTF!!!!!”

I forgot about that sad fact. There was a story in the Washington Post about S.C.’s high unemployment. A lot of people are out of work. Yet their governor has time to travel to his overseas paramour. Nice.

Countdown to Sanford resignation, 10. . .9. . .8

And it takes just one person to have an affair and destroy the fabric of a marriage.

“Now, I believe that “blame” is a strong word. I simply question what is the other side to the story.”

And what do you think the “other side” could be? What is her “dirt?” I know you have a not-so-positive view of marriage to begin with, so there appears to be some projection here, IMHO.

1) The wife lied – she kept the falseness of the marriage in the public eye
2) They had already seperated when he visited his side piece
3) Was he wrong? YES Guilty of being a hypocrite – YES
4) Should he stay in a marriage that isn’t working? NO

People are already giving this guy a free pass..I’m only mad ços he’s giving Palin one more reason to be in the running in 2012. I dont want here anywhere near the White House, can’t stand that Wasilla Hillbilly

I say ” FRED G. SANFORD” for govenor…..atleast he ain’t goin no further than “EL SAGUNDO”!!!!!!

Someone *helped to throw him under the bus
1) Someone gave his personal emails to the newspapers
2) Someone tipped the newspaper as to exactly what airport and flight # he would be arriving on

He did it to himself, but someone also set him up.

@Sydney™

I think you are wearing off on him :0)

@rome

Not Fred G. Sandford!! Haha!!

The other woman is named Maria…Copy of an email sent to the Senator from his so called “Dear friend”…………

From Maria. Wednesday, July 9. 8:14 p.m.

“As I told you I shouldn’t have done this trip but I would have felt worst if I wouldn’t have come because it was too over the date, he is a very nice guy, great heart … but unfortunately I am not in love with him … You are my love … something hard to believe even for myself as it’s also a kind of impossible love, not only because of distance but situation. Sometimes you don’t choose things, they just happen… I can’t redirect my feelings and I am very happy with mine towards you.”

No, there appears to be a deeper context to your questions, and I’m attempting to ascertain what that is. It doesn’t appear that you had reviewed some of the relevant details of the incident before you jumped to certain conclusions, for instance.

just remember this….”Hell hath no fury like that of a woman scorned”

He could have been govenor of all fifty states and then some…….when you piss the right woman off enough you can be on the side of the road with your head in a ditch and she’ll just walk on by!

btw if and when her dirt comes out….I’ll buy you a lunch…..that’s how confident I am in my opinion.

A woman gives her husband of 20 years a 2nd chance and you call it condoning……..hmmmmmmmmmmmm?

Now I cant beleives he done gone and did such a thing baby. Never trust these rich white men because they is closet freaks.

@Man

“Ok, what sort of information that you find pertinent that I may be overlooking?”

For starters, you made insinuations about the character of his wife without having appeared to have read her statement or have been familiar with her recent actions in regards to the infidelity. You thought, for example, that he was kicked out prior to the start of the affair when, in fact, it began in 2008.

“BTW, I’m asking questions so as to NOT jump to conclusions.”

No, you appear to be fixated on Jenny Sanford’s supposed complicity in this act of infidelity. You referred to her “dirt.”

Hey, I don’t feel I’m “focused on the wife” per se. As I stated earlier, there are two sides to every story. HIS actions have been thoroughly examined, analyzed and documented. I feel it would be redundant to further investigate him.

Yes, I am VERY familiar with “a woman scorned.” Which again, makes me question “was she NOT ‘scorned’ five months prior when she initially found out?”

Now, I don’t find a “second chance” to be “suspicious” in and of itself. However, I DO raise an eyebrow when a “second chance” is given WITHOUT ANY REPRIMANDS. At least none that we know of.

Besides, aren’t you pondering what caused him to stray from a 20 year marriage? hmmmmm….

@Man

Some responses to some of your questions in the governor’s own words from yesterday’s news conference:

In regards to what his wife has been doing: “I would secondly say to Jenny, anybody who has observed her over the last 20 years of my life knows how closely she has stood by my side in campaign after campaign after campaign, in literally being my campaign manager and in the raising of those four boys and in a whole host of other things throughout the lives that we’ve built together.”

On what caused him to “stray”: “And so the bottom line is this: I have been unfaithful to my wife. I developed a relationship with a — what started out as a dear, dear friend from Argentina. It began very innocently, as I suspect many of these things do, in just a casual e-mail back and forth, in advice on one’s life there and advice here.

But here recently over this last year, it developed into something much more than that. And as a consequence, I hurt her. I hurt you all. I hurt my wife. I hurt my boys. I hurt friends like Tom Davis. I hurt a lot of different folks. And all I can say is that I apologize.”

So, I tried to think of a list of male politicians who have fallen because of their “indiscretions.” Feel free to add:

– Eliot Spitzer, NY
– Sen. Ensign, NV, just admitted to having an extramarital affair last week
– John Edwards, political career is pretty much kaput, wife has a new book, verdict is still out on paternity of his mistress’s baby, I just heard his former aide (the one who claimed to be the child’s father) may also have a new tell-all book coming out
– Bill Clinton, ’nuff said

When you get to be 50 years old, don’t you outgrow this nonsense?

There has got to be away for men with political aspirations to run for powerful positions w/out the pretense or burden of marriage. I realize that in politics, the image of marriage conveys stability and family values, but lets’ be honest, it ain’t workin’.

Politicians don’t necessarily have different reasons for cheating than non-politicians, and they don’t necessarily cheat more often.

The difference: “They live their lives more in a fishbowl, and that has responsibilities and costs with it,” An adulterous politician doesn’t just betray his family’s trust, he also betrays the public’s trust.

When politicians get caught, they do so in extraordinary fashion and their actions raise questions about their judgment, character and integrity as a leader.

If they can lie to their loved ones, who is to say they won’t lie to everyone else? If they can’t stay faithful to their marriage vows, who is to say they’ll stay faithful to their oaths of office? And if they have secrets in their private lives, who is to say they don’t have secrets in their public lives?

One of the few times I agree with you…

i dont understand why his personal life has to be connected to his career as a politician. So he made a mistake but that doesn’t take away from his position or his ability to do his job. He’s human just like everyone else.

@ life
He’s a public official – try taking off from your job for days, and not telling one where you are…and then lie about it..
his credibility is in question..that’s the issue

life

True, but in his case, it’s been revealed that some of his trips to see babygirl, was at the expense of the tax payer – That’s a no no. It’s akin to misappropriations of company assets.

Truer words couldn’t have been spoken.

I have been to South AMerica nd those women go to the plastic surgeon OFTEN to get themselves together.

You know it had to be some good Nookie for him to travel to Argentina (a 10 hour plane ride).

It’s been announced that Farrah Fawcett just died.

This country is corrupted first religion took advantage of the people now government is just asa worse we need a resolution but our society has find a way to rid America of its go gettas now all we want is Money nice whipp and a house or apt damn shame

omg omg omg my Gma just passed from cancer and she has been so consumed with her story aww

One of the things that men with mistresses or girlfriends have to spend is money.

Those emails that he sent her, I betcha taxpayers paid for the computer and the internet service. Also, the trip to Argentina, I bet the trip was paid with taxpayer money. The five days that he didn’t work and getting laid was paid by taxpayer money. Phone calls, gifts and all the other trappings was probably paid by taxpayer money.

Yup, and it took two people to do it.

LOL, at you thinking you were one of Charlie’s Angels.

I guess he’s letting his “lust” write a lot of checks that his life can’t cash. The bounced check fees on this one is going to be steep.

I think when you are an elected official, the folks who vote you in office do so partly because they feel you have the same values as they do. Although it happens all of the time, I don’t think this is in line w/ many voter’s value system, and due to that fact, he won’t be voted in another term.

THIS MAN IS A DAXN FOOL

Okay, so did anyone hear the speech? Did they notice he was saying he hurt and was sorry to the Argentine woman first and then his sons, friends and lastly he said his wife? Wow. She was at the bottom of the danx list. The is f*cked up…for real.

LOL “chasin nookie in argentina”

sounds like an eninem song

gotdam hypocrites wit their due as i say mentality.THROW EM TO THE LIONS!!!

Missunderstood

I wonder why it’s always the men who get into positions of power and lose their flipping minds??? You don’t see Margaret Thatcher and Condi Rice doing this type of shyt!!!
————————————————–
@missunderstood – have to disagree about the Condi comment. She didn’t have to lose her mind after she got into power…she lost it BEFOREHAND by even agreeing to be in that trifling Bush administration. You can’t lose something that’s already gone.

As for this idiot Sanford, it’s no surprise. All these fools running around calling themselves “Good, God-fearing men” who think of only the health and well being of their families anc countrymen are…well…politicians. Nuff said.

@ misunderstood
no that wasn’t my comment-Life wrote that.I commented right underneath it.

People who deny love and stay in loveless marriages become sad and bitter. He sounds like he really loves this woman, he should give up office, divorce and be with the one he loves, and go back to be a private person.

I feel very sorry for his wife and four young boys. And he did not need four days to break up with his mistress – could have easily phoned that in. Hopefully, his wife will emerge from her denial and realize that her husband thinks he’s in love with this other woman. She can’t work on the marriage alone and he seems otherwise engaged. The S.C. State paper had email proof of his relationship with the mistress since December and his arriving home from Argentina brought the story together. It was either ‘fess up or be revealed. But it’s the hypocrisy of his prior statements on marriage and fidelity that pretty much KO him from future political offices.

The one good thing I read was that his term is up next year and he cannot run again.

I just want to know why he was up there crying and boohooing. And in Argentia as well. Sounds like he needs to get a grip on his emotions before he starts trying to govern a state.

Argentine’s are just as racist as Mexicans, with the exception that they are a bunch of wanna be Euros, lol. Sorry I’ll visit the real Europe not a bunch of ignorant redneck confederate ex-pat’s descendants that share the same racial hatred that their deep south great grand mother or father passed down to them, no thank you. Any way those Argentine heifers only like White men due to the fact they wish to be White so damn bad, lol…

This is why I can’t run for office because the question wouldn’t be IF I was hittin some fine Argenitine azz but when and where.

What’s the point of being rich if you can’t have a harem?

He was crying because he ain’t gonna see his mistress for a while.

come on GOP keep the mess coming.

What a JERK!!!!He’s the same 1 worried about our President in his decision making…That lady is going to dump his dumb butt once that money stop coming in..His wife need to step..I’m sure it broke his wife when she read ALL the emotional things he NEVER said to her…

a mess.

South America would be the Red necks’ second home, that why there are a bunch of ignorant country fied Latins down there due to the White trash teachings, lol. If you notice some Latins there look kind of trailor parkish ? Lol…

And hooking involved and popping out kids, lol….

Opps, I meant hooking up, sorry !

He has NOT resigned. . .yet.
