Cheating Guv's Mystery Mistress Comes Forward

South Carolina Gov Mark SanfordThe Argentinian gal that helped destroy South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford's family has finally fessed up to her sins.

41-year-old Maria Belen Chapur sent a statement to Buenos Aires news network C5n, admitting she and the married Guv have been having a relationship, according to the AP.

Chapur says she refuses to talk about her private life -- and that the 200-word statement is all she's gonna say about the affair.

16. Even though this prick is a complete putz, I hope he doesn't step down just to drive the leftist Communists nuts

18. Not sure how to take this. He didn't cheat on his wife with an underage girl or boy, she's actually very attractive and close to his own age....ehh....is this normal when cheating?

19. His e-mails are definitely what make this whole thing 10 times worse. It's horrible regardless, but the ridiculous sounding e-mails just really put icing on the cake. I feel so sorry for his wife and children

20. Well you know the guy definitely has feelings for this other woman if he's willing to carry out a damn 8 year relationship with her across the ocean. I wonder if his wife will just stick around for the sake of the children? I think he would have been better off getting caught with a hooker from Charleston than this. At least from his wife perspective.

22. 7. i can't stand to look at his smug,smirking face any longer. He doesnt want to resign because he stands to lose so very much financially..Just think... alimony, childsupport x4, marital property division issues...maybe even OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE issues???Posted at 8:04PM on Jun 28th 2009 by Once a cheater, always a cheater!

Both the governor & his wife come from wealthy families. I'm sure the last thing on their minds is money. He is definitely scum. His wife, on the other hand, gets my respect because she chose to toss him out while she recovered from the shock, didn't appear with him when he aired his confession (like so many other wives have done) & told him not to travel to see his slut, er mistress again. He chose not to listen to her & went to see the mistress after all. The fact that he chose to do this over the Father's Day weekend, leaving his 4 young sons to wonder where daddy was is even more disgusting. He should definitely look into another line of work as he has lost all credibility.

23. I guess this is something these politicians should start putting on their resume, they all lie and cheat, even the President....

What kind of jerk-off keeps a "copy" of a love letter to his mistress in his files & then asks his wife to look for something for him in the very same files? He should definitely try a new line of work as he has shown himself not only to be a cheater but to be an astonishingly dumb cheater.

25. What a whore she is. Her full statement can be found on Yahoo. She blames the person who broke into her email account for destroying the lives of her family and his. Not like their cheating had anything to do with it.

The governor is another dumb ass who' was vain enough to think some hot chick wanted him just because he's so great. He should have asked himself if she would have gone after him if he was just Joe Blow, a working stiff with a mortage & 4 kids. The mistress is another seductress who goes after any man who has wealth & position, whether he is married or not. That doesn't speak well of her either. All told, the deserve each other. The wife, who comes from a well-to-do family, should give him a one-way ticket to Argentina.

29. He is a deserter from his responsibilities as Governor and as a husband. He wasn't caught in some love thing.He was caught in a list thing.He should resign or get impeached because his lapse in judgement has proven he isnt qualified.He should forget the girl in Argentina,what was her name again,and crawl back to his wife and apologize. Then he should move to a quiet pace in the country,right a book and learn to find his place in his family with his wife.Will he do these things...the sad thing is who really knows! His wife has been more of a leader than he has in their marriage and shes a good woman. Her selfless giving and love should have been enough to bring this man to his knees in tears. The most important issue is their family and the marriage.It can be saved and it can be better than before.But and its a big but.....he needs to seriously look into his heart and find out who he is and why he decided to get into an affair with another woman.I know that kind of betrayal because it happened to me. Hes a deserter on many levels but he can be forgiven and restored.

Thanks to the liberal media. You have dozens upon dozens of Dems that have over the years been not only caught in sex scandals, but criminal scandals involving underage children. Not only did they manage to keep their offices, but they were even REELECTED by their equally sick constituents. I'll take this clown over a child molesting liberal any day of the week.
