Some people do repent. It is not like he was a queer demanding that all accept his cheating on his wife as a new lifestyle.
Are we absolutely sure it’s not a new lifestyle? When’s he going to get around to marrying his foreign hottie? Hasn’t it been three years now? Or, is Sanford going to be like a decadent, ascot-wearing Frenchman, and just keep her as a mistress?
Oh, well. It’s great that the loathesome Busch and those Comedy Central cretins lost. I keep trying to look at this whole thing as a glass half-full. But’s it a very degraded silver-lining. My revulsion towards Sanford has less to do specifically with issues of adultery/sin than of character/comportment. Part of my longstanding code in defining manhood involves abiding by duty, responsibility, and honor. When I see someone ditch these things and then try to justify their selfish actions with downright grotesque levels of self-absorption, it really turns my stomach. The culture has become embarrassingly awash in this kind of mindset. It’s like the polar opposite of “character.” But that’s where America seems to be nowadays. And it even gets celebrated and rewarded. All while decency, character and virtuousness are now even disparaged and looked down upon. One of the reasons I really don’t think America has future.
Exactly. When he won the primary he flaunted his “financee” and claimed his victory was a sign of God’s approval. If he’s so holy, why doesn’t he marry the streetwalker? He could be like that prophet that God made marry a whore as an example of the idolatry in Israel. Hosea married the whore Gomer to make this illustration. So why doesn’t Markie marry his Gomer?
