Sanford’s Affair — Yes, It’s Wrong

Mark Sanford’s affair with an Argentinian woman is wrong, of course.  After all, he’s Governor of South Carolina, a married man, and a father.  What was he thinking when he ran off to Argentina to see his girlfriend?  I think he should resign.  But then, I also thought Bill Clinton should have resigned after his affairs were brought to light.

Sanford’s lying is wrong too, of course.  The leader of the State of South Carolina should be held accountable for his behavior.  Whatever happened to governors and presidents being held to a higher standard of behavior?  Sanford has brought shame on himself, his family, and the great State of South Carolina.  That’s what I say anyway.
