Gov. Mark Sanford just admitted to jetting over to Argentina to hook up with a woman who was not his wife -- and said the affair started about a year ago.

He asked for forgiveness from pretty much everyone, including his wife and 4 kids. He's resigned as chairman of the Republican Governors Association but did not resign as Governor of South Carolina.

46. 27. I don't seem to remember any John Edwards coverage on here while he fathered a child with a whore while his wife was dying...hmm......

Are you retarded? TMZ was the first one report on it after the National Enquirer. Typical Republican, always trying to spin the story.

49. 36. Yes, the democrats do it too...but then they don't claim to be the moral majority, family values, holier than thou crowd, either. IT'S THE HYPOCRISY PEOPLE!!!

Really, so when they take their vows they're saying, "hmmm...I might screw around on ya some, but don't worry about it?" LOL, quite possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Henry sounds like they're proud their party has zero morals or values. What a nut!

50. Maybe all politicians should have short term limits, stop the lifetime pensions and lifetime family healthcare, get rid of the mansions ... maybe if being a politician was more work and less luxury only those who really care and want to do what is right and good for this country and us would be in office.

52. RepublicansarePervs,

Funny, cause the list of DNC pervs would take a day to type. At least Republicans don't lie about their affairs and don't get caught with underaged boys like Dems

53. Boy.....these big, powerful politicians sure do have a lot of trouble keeping "Mr. Winkie" under control.

55. WHAT AN FA KING EMBARASSMENT!!! The kids r probably saying--Thanks for the humiliation Dad

Posted at 3:12PM on Jun 24th 2009 by just saying

56. What the heck is going on? Do people really think that they can get away with cheating? Maybe for awhile but it always ends up costing you more than its worth!! This man doesn't have one ounce of self-respect, class or integrity.
Republican or Dem. it really doesn't matter- lack of character is evident across party lines!

TIME TO WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

57. Ah yes, another self-righteous, sanctity of marriage, religious right-wing, dirty old guy getting his freak on in a foreign country. I cannot wait to see who this morally bankrupt pig was poking in Argentina. It will turn out to be a TRANNY you just wait and see.

58. to #49, the only truthful thing about your reply is my screen name that you wrote.

59. Dems suck just as bad as Republicans but Dem supporters just don't ever expect their politicians to have any morals because they don't themselves.

60. I wish everyone would shut up about Democrat and Republican. I am just glad that we finally have something to talk about besides that stupid Jon and Kate crap. I am a Republican and I am a Christian, but I am not a hypocrit nor do I try to cram my beliefs down people's throats. That's my business. I don't agree that all Republicans are holier than thou - when did Republican = that? Maybe I am an independent. I don't know. But since everyone seems to want to make this a political thing - are all you democrats happy that you voted for OBAMA now? Lazy MF's sitting at home on your asses while I'm at work paying your freaking welfare. Change? Keep it. I'll take dollars. VOTE REPUBLICAN or whatever - just get OBAMA out of the damn white house before we all have to start pimping out our kids to pay our bills. And BTW this Governor is a lying, cheating, piece of $hi! and should get the same punishment that Bill Clinton and John Edwards got. NOTHING. At least he knows what the definition of sex is.
