So if I have this straight, to strengthen a Republican marriage you should...

[jgraz]

Proposition a cop in an airport men's room

Indulge your diaper fetish with a chatty hooker

Bang one of your campaign workers and then try to pay off her family

-- or --

Ask your husband to move out so he can abandon his post and fly down to Argentina for some taxpayer-funded nookie.



Y'know, I really wish Republicans would quit trying to redefine traditional marriage for the rest of us.

4. Don't forget "publically humiliate your spouse" - that seems to be foreplay.

8. Ah, Swampy! Haven't see you in ages!

Keeping all the status quo'ers uncomfortable as usual, I see. Keep up the good work!

[Swamp Rat]

9. Way'at Hydra!

11. *Waves back*

I took a DU break for a few months and it seems most of the cheerleaders of bad things have gone to ground. Did I just stop in at a good time?

[Swamp Rat]

13. I don't know...

I've been gone since January, living abroad, only to stop by when I go to an Internet cafe, if I have time to visit DU.

14. Congrats!

Enjoy your time outside the noisebox. It's been particularly tiresome lately.

[Swamp Rat]

16. I'll be near 'civilization' for a couple of weeks, then I'll be gone for a while again.

I'm going to a very remote place again, far away from roads, buildings, and people. :D




ciao! :hi:

[CTyankee]

15. Hi, where are you? I'd love to know....

22. You know...

...the more I think about that movie (Idiocracy), I think that it is more documentary than comedy.

Hormel Chavez for President!

6. But, but we get really scarred of the gay

precious indeed.

[BadgerKid]

10. Like lots of things Republican,

avert the attention of others because you're guilty of something.

[Kerrytravelers]

7. Post of the day!

Well said. And so true. :thumbsup:

[muffin1]

12. That sounds about right...

my best friend is gay and obviously cannot marry (we live in Virginia x( ), but these sanctimonious, cheating, lying asshats can?
WTF is wrong with this fucking picture?

[JerseygirlCT]

18. The way you put that seems to blame Mrs. Sanford for his actions

I think that's totally unfair.

There are hotels in SC, yes? There's also, I would guess, an Executive Mansion or something of that sort?

Her asking him to move out after learning of his affair,in an effort to help them heal and try to fix their marriage doesn't mean he had to run off to the gf in Argentina. He's entirely culpable here, not his wife.

[jgraz]

19. It was her quote

She's the one who said she asked him to move out in order to "strengthen the marriage".

All four of these situations had "strengthening the marriage" quotes associated with them. In Sanford's case, the quote came from his wife.

[JerseygirlCT]

20. I know she asked him to move out - I'm objecting to your post

where you placed her request in a line of misdeeds by philandering male politicians.

Her asking him to go was based on his actions (the affair). He didn't have an affair because of her request. The way you placed her request in that list seems to indicate that she did something wrong in making that request, that's all I'm saying.

[jgraz]

23. What she did was repeat the standard BS about "strengthening her marriage"

Which was the entire motivation for the post. Perhaps I was trying to be too accurate with who was saying what.


Tell you what: if she, at any point in the future, comes out in favor of gay marriage, I will post a full apology to her on DU. But my guess is she shares her husband's hypocrisy on this issue.

21. Republicans have done to marriage

what panty-hose did to finger-banging!
