- Once again a member of the Religious Right and the Morals Police has been caught with his pants down. That's the problem with the morals police, they have no morals themselves.

- It is very hard to feel any symphathy for Sanford. When Clinton finally admitted to the Lewinsky affair, Sanford was a Congressman and was a leading advocate of Clinton's impeachment based on moral grounds. Now, he is caught in the same delima but maintains that same standard does not apply to him. Why not? No explanation yet.
Also, the people of SC should be advised who paid for Sanford's round trip to Argentina and his expenses while there. - Reply to this comment

- I have news for you. It's not a Republican thing. It's not a Democrat thing. It's just human nature. We are animals, and having six is a natural thing for all animals to do.

- Is this what you were saying when it was Bill Clinton it is not a Republican thing it is not a Democrat thing.
The problems is the Republicans want it both ways they want to be able to get away with this and say it is private but when the shoe is on the other foot they want it to be open and impeach and remove and all the other nonsense that goes along with it.
This is not about sex it is about hypocrocy and that is a lie upon a lie NO EXCUSE.
- Yeah? How many "Animals" do you know who have sold Snake Oil to the small minded American Taliban for votes? LOL Yes it is HUMAN as SO MANY American's tried to tell the American Taliban and the fanatic Right during the Clinton embarrassment! We have NO business involving ourselves in the Private Lives of these or any other people. It became stylish to do such things when the Republican's merged with the Jerry Falwells of this planet. When you act like pimps you better be prepared for the fall out!

That would really throw a monkey wrench in things. - Reply to this comment
- This says it all:
South Carolina's governor once cited "moral legitimacy" when he was a congressman voting for President Bill Clinton's impeachment. He became a darling of fiscal conservatives over his ideological opposition to federal stimulus cash.
Now Mark Sanford has taken a swan dive from the moral high ground.
The republican'ts have taken HYPOCRISY to new limits! - Reply to this comment

Which is why I am not going to make the same mistake and trash Sanford. He was fair game when he was hiding it and lying about where he was and doing the disappearing act but now that has changed.
Now that sanford has made it public and apologized it is a personal matter between him, his family, and the woman in Argentina, and none of my business.
Be careful putting yourself up as the morality judge like people did with Clinton or the same thing that happened to Sanford might happen to you.

- This may be more than a moral issue. This person some thought might aspire to the presidency was cavorting with a Foreign National. She could very likely be operating as an agent for her country or others. I personally don't care how many times he acted on his "needs". I want him investigated to see if he gave away any State or Natinoal secrets.
- Sanford has not made his affair public of his own accord..the press has made it public in spite of HIS attempts to keep it secret. If he had come out and admitted his sin without being forced to, then I agree it would be just a private thing. And, we are all morality judges..if we didn't judge we would have IQs less than 3 year olds. It is plain SUPERSTITION to think that judging Sanford's actions will rebound on us....How many millions of people judged Clinton publically and privately for being a hypocrit, and haven't had an affair much less been unmercifully treated for any similar kind of sin???
