Republican Hypocrite, Lying, Philanderer Mark Sanford Brings His Bippy Girlfriend to his Campaign

Republicans are such hypocrites. They pretend to be Christian Conservatives, yet they continue to vote for Lying Philanderers like Mark Sanford. Republican voters in North Carolina selected the philanderer to run against the honorable Elizabeth Colbert Busch for Congress.
Philander Sanford had the unmitigated GALL to bring his bippy on stage with him when he accepted the candidacy. Throughout his speech, she stared at him, moon-eyed, like some kind of stalker.

For those of you who don't remember what Sanford did, I wrote about it in June, 2009. Here's what I reported:
"Republican governor of South Carolina, Mark Sanford, went missing for six days over Father's Day weekend (abandoning his children, his wife and his constituents). The governor, married and father of four, was not seen in public nor by his children from June 18 to June 24. Neither his family nor his staff knew where he was, although his staff told the media Sanford was out hiking on the Appalachian Trail. Then Sanford was spotted by a reporter on June 24 in Atlanta's International Airport returning home from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Sanford CRIED when he confessed before the cameras (boo hoo). He admitted having an affair (since the local newspaper caught him in the act). He said, "I've been unfaithful to my wife. I developed a relationship with what started as a dear, dear friend from Argentina." His voice choking at times, Sanford apologized to his wife and four sons, his staff and supporters, and said he would resign immediately as head of the Republican Governors Association. He said the affair began last year and his wife discovered the affair five months ago. He added that he and his wife were trying to work through it.
I do admire Jenny Sanford's strength through these difficult times. She said, "We reached a point where I felt it was important to look my sons in the eye and maintain my dignity, self-respect, and my basic sense of right and wrong. I therefore asked my husband to leave two weeks ago. This trial separation was agreed to with the goal of ultimately strengthening our marriage."

Republican Voters in South Carolina voted for this Lying, Philanderer! What kind of hyprocrites are these so called Christian Conservatives that voted for this Philanderer? He's a LIAR. He ABANDONED his Children over Father's Day weekend. He brought his hair-brained Bippy Gawker on stage with him this week. He hasn't changed at all. And Republicans voted for him. WE THE PEOPLE Must Ensure He is NOT Elected!!!

The Demise of the Republican Party: Gov. Mark Sanford - the Face of Hypocrisy

I have been trying to avoid writing about the Mark Sanford "affair" but after watching the CAD compare himself to King David and the pathetic responses by the right-wing biased Fox media, I find it impossible to avoid the hypocrisy of it all. Therefore, I am writing this one blog about it.
For those of you who haven't heard, Republican governor of South Carolina, Mark Sanford, went missing for six days over Father's Day weekend. The governor, married and father of four, was not seen in public nor by his children from June 18 to June 24. Neither his family nor his staff knew where he was, although his staff told the media Sanford was out hiking on the Appalachian Trail. Then Sanford was spotted by a reporter on June 24 in Atlanta's International Airport returning home from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Sanford CRIED when he confessed before the cameras (boo hoo). He admitted having an affair (since the local newspaper caught him in the act). He said, "I've been unfaithful to my wife. I developed a relationship with what started as a dear, dear friend from Argentina." His voice choking at times, Sanford apologized to his wife and four sons, his staff and supporters, and said he would resign immediately as head of the Republican Governors Association. He said the affair began last year and his wife discovered the affair five months ago. He added that he and his wife were trying to work through it.
I do admire Jenny Sanford's strength through these difficult times. She said, "We reached a point where I felt it was important to look my sons in the eye and maintain my dignity, self-respect, and my basic sense of right and wrong. I therefore asked my husband to leave two weeks ago. This trial separation was agreed to with the goal of ultimately strengthening our marriage."

The other woman is a beautiful Latina by the name of Maria Belen Chapur. She is a former TV News anchor, divorced mother of two teenage sons. There is no one you can blame for the affair other than the married Mark Sanford. His wife has been a wonderful mother. The other woman was single and available. What is worse is, after his wife found out about the affair, Sanford asked his wife for permission to visit his lover. His wife responded, "Absolutely not. It's one thing to forgive adultery; it's another thing to condone it!" For Jenny Sanford, the focus is the couple's four sons. During her interview with AP, she wept as she displayed the stellar report cards earned by her eldest two sons at their exclusive private school in Columbia.

Mark Sanford is a CAD for asking his wife to be complicit with his affair. Despicable.
Not only was he a CAD, but he used his mistress in the fact he had no plans of ever divorcing his wife.
He was also a CAD to the State. It wasn't until after his affair was revealed and after a reporter used the Freedom of Information Act to seek records of what public funds were used to pay for Sanford's trip to Argentina, that Sanford said he would reimburse taxpayers for expenses he had incurred one year earlier with his mistress in Argentina. He said, "I made a mistake while I was there in meeting with the woman who I was unfaithful to my wife with. That has raised some very legitimate concerns and questions, and as such I am going to reimburse the state for the full cost of the Argentina leg of this trip.”

Sanford is also a hypocrite. He demonized Bill Clinton when he had an affair.
In 1998, Sanford was a Republican congressman from South Carolina when he demanded "moral clarity" from Clinton and called on him to resign. Sanford told the Post and Courier newspaper in Sept. 1998: "Very damaging stuff. This one's pretty cut and dried. I think it would be much better for the country and for him personally [to resign]."

If this whole fiasco had ended at this point, I probably would not have blogged about this story. However, what happened next got on my last nerve.

The AP reports: About an hour after Jenny Sanford talked of her pain and feelings of betrayal, her husband brushed aside any suggestion he might immediately resign, citing the Bible and the story of King David _ who continued to lead after sleeping with another man's wife, Bathsheba, having the husband slain, then marrying the widow.
"What I find interesting is the story of David, and the way in which he fell mightily _ fell in very, very significant ways, but then picked up the pieces and built from there," Sanford told members of his cabinet in a session called so he could apologize to them in person and tell them the business of government must continue.
Meanwhile, questions grew about a trip to Argentina he took last summer. While Sanford has agreed to reimburse the state for part of a more-than $8,000 tab that enabled him to see the mistress, state officials indicated they never intended a South American economic development trip to hold meetings in Argentina. That was only done at the governor's behest, said Kara Borie, a spokeswoman for the state Commerce Department.

(Should Jenny Sanford be worried as her husband compares himself with someone who had an affair and murdered the spouse?)

Can you believe the monumental ego this philanderer has? Comparing himself to King David? After asking his wife to be complicit??
After reading all this, you would think Fox News, the self proclaimed leader of "fair and balanced" news and believers in Christian Conservatism would be ferocious in reporting this story, demanding for Sanford's resignation as they did for Bill Clinton or John Edwards. Think so? Think not! Here is what they are actually reporting:
. Did Email Hacker Bring About Gov. Sanford’s Fall?
. Bill O'Reilly devoted 3 segments of his show talking with Karl Rove who both blamed Democrats for "celebrating" the affair. Then O'Reilly (who had an affair with Andrea Makris and paid her off to keep quiet) LIED again by saying “The right has been fairly restrained about the John Edwards situation." Hah! I remember entire shows on Fox with Ann Coulter, Malkin, Hannity and others just revelling in tearing Edwards apart. What Lies and Hypocrisy!

Mark Sanford and the Fox News pundits are Cads, Liars and Hypocrites!
They CLAIM to be Christian Conservatives. Instead, they are attack dogs. Whenever a Democrat/Liberal politician strays, Faux News relentlessly demonizes them. Yet they overlook their own (Republican) scandals. It is happening again with Sanford.

Frankly, I am sick and tired of the Hypocrisy of the Republican Party. I think ALL of America is catching on to their tactics. Their politicians do not adhere to the moral values of the Christian Conservatives. They merely PANDER to the Christian Conservative movement for their votes.

I am sick and tired of the moral lectures from Fox News and Republican politicians. If they are ever to get in the good graces of Americans again, what they have to learn is, we are all human. Everyone has human failings. No more lectures. No more demands that everyone adhere to your political agenda. Don't cry and thump on the Bible and say "I have sinned." Don't call yourself King David. Don't demand resignations of ANY Democrat or anyone you disagree with when they cheat on their wives. Stop saying the little rural areas are the "true American areas." Stop saying you are the patriotic party.

WE ARE ALL AMERICAN. ALL AREAS OF AMERICA ARE PATRIOTIC AREAS. WE ALL SUPPORT OUR TROOPS. AND SOMETIMES ALL OF US SIN. Republican Politicians, my advice to you is: Stick to politics. Stick to supporting our President. Stick to improving the economy. AND ABOVE ALL, STOP THE HYPOCRISY!!!
