You shall know them by their actions
When the whole “hiking the Appalachian trail” story broke out, I felt a tremendous amount of sympathy for Jenny Sanford, the wife of South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford. The sordid and private details of her life splayed across the headlines for all to see. Having to watch her children bear the brunt of it. The very public and painful separation. So on and so forth.
Except now all my sympathy has gone out the window. In particular because of this little tidbit from, you guessed it, her upcoming book:
Jenny Sanford, wife of South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, says her husband insisted before their marriage on removing from their wedding vows the clause promising to be faithful.
Two things come immediately to mind: 1.Only in America can you make a serious effort to capitalize on your personal misfortune by making the media circuit after cramming out a memoir in year and 2. If the person you’re marrying refuses to utter vows of fidelity when you get married I don’t know how shocked you can get when you find out he’s cheating on you…
