SC: First lady: Sanford sought permission to visit lover

SULLIVAN’S ISLAND — South Carolina first lady Jenny Sanford said Friday her husband repeatedly asked permission to visit his lover in the months after she discovered his affair.

“I said absolutely not. It’s one thing to forgive adultery; it’s another thing to condone it.”

Jenny Sanford spoke to The Associated Press during a 20-minute interview in the living room at the coastal home where she sought refuge with their four sons. They were her first extended comments on the affair.

She said when her husband, Gov. Mark Sanford, inexplicably disappeared last week, she hoped he was hiking the Appalachian Trail, as his staff told those inquiring about his absence. That he had dared to go to Argentina to see the other woman stunned her.

“He was told in no uncertain terms not to see her,” she said in a strong, steady voice.

“I was hoping he was on the Appalachian Trail. But I was not worried about his safety. I was hoping he was doing some real soul searching somewhere and was devastated to find out it was Argentina. It’s tragic.”

Once again confirming my suspicion that there is just SOMETHING about the rich, elite, worldly circles that I simply will NEVER UNDERSTAND.

Dump the arrested adolescent weakling.

He's not only betrayed you publicly, he thumbed his nose at you--not to mention his constituents---at the same time.

He doesn't deserve your loyalty or support any longer.

Nor that of his constituents.

Why do I get a sense that Jenny had no interest in meeting her husband’s need for sex?

The other woman kinda favors her. Maybe if she darkened her eyebrows, learned to speak Spanish, and tango....

Might it be the smug narcissism?

Or maybe the elitist amorality?

Perhaps the diseased hypocrisy?

But it’s also sheer stupidity! From people who are passing themselves off as “alleged” competent leaders.

“oh dear - may I have permission to betray you and scoot off to Argentina to visit my hot latin lover?....”

I mean really - do these people have rabies or something?

There is nothing cheesy about a Victoria’s Secret Catalog. Fredrick’s is a bit cheesier and also has some pretty good stuff.

Victoria’s Secret also sells bathing suits, shoes, perfumes, and clothing - so that can be your “cover”.

SW - who found a nice VS “smoothie’ to put over postbaby belly so I could wear dresses again...

The fact that they have four boys is absolutely no proof that she was either an enthusiastic or even accomodating sex partner within their marriage. Maybe she was, but maybe she wasn’t.
