Great thread, light hearted and slightly sarcastic, just the way I love them!
Sanford is making an ass or a name for himself, as the other politicians have. It's a shame that this behavior has become the norm rather than the sin it should be.
Just FYI, these jokers actually believe their "relationship" IS different from those others who are just having affairs.... and they of course, are upstanding individuals, because they are THE knight in shining armor... choke, choke, wheez, wheez, hmmph. The don't care to see the reprocussions, or the effects on their own family, for they have to see they are saving someone in distress.... cough, cough, yuck and often other children to boot.
Waaay back when my situation started, a friend of mine also had a husband who was off in MLC land. Each man touted the mistakes of the other man, condemning them for their actions, and the destruction of their families.... Both of them, yet, neither one of them saw what THEY were doing as the same or even bad. It was weird... My friend and I couldn't believe the things we heard, which now we laugh about years later.
I guess it's not abnormal for one of these people to convince themselves or justify their actions in a way that they can live with, no matter how insane it is.
