Shame on those leaders who have affairs
Aug. 17, 2009 12:15 am
I feel badly for the wife of S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford. I was pleased to see her moving out of the mansion. These are the consequences for Gov. Sanford packing, moving to Argentina for a week with his mistress.
His interview about the affair was in such poor taste. Who needs his tearful account of his thoughts, actions and feelings?
Citizens are disgusted with congressmen and governors admitting to their affairs. The wives stand by tearful, devastated, with fake smiles.
