JENNY SANFORD & KIDS MOVE OUT LIKE WHOA: The Sanfords are back from their merry two-week jaunt to the country Europe! So… how’d it go??? “First Lady Jenny Sanford announced Friday she is moving with her four sons to Charleston and will no longer live in the Governor’s Mansion.” NOT WELL, EH? The State even has a photo of Jenny and her slave haulin’ boxes. Again: good call with the prolonged affair in Argentina there, Mark! Gotta feel sorry for the four rugrats. [The State]

Gov. Mark Sanford later issued a statement saying he stood by the decision and that it was best for the family’s reconciliation process and for the boys in the coming school year.

Well, it’ll give him lots more time to explore those infrequently visited nooks and crannies of the Appalachian Trail, that’s for sure.

WadISay August 7, 2009 at 1:53 pm

Now if she would only put out a press release about how Mark is hung like a gerbil.

user-of-owls August 7, 2009 at 1:54 pm

Any thoughts on how this might be incorporated into the EU’s next tourism ad campaign?

rereridiculous August 7, 2009 at 1:55 pm

The mansion will be as empty as the ex-First Lady’s lady parts.

liquiddaddy August 7, 2009 at 1:56 pm

She looks good.

Hooray For Anything August 7, 2009 at 1:56 pm

Doesn’t she know that as a political wife, she’s supposed to stay married to the dude and then cash it all in with a million dollar book advance?

blader August 7, 2009 at 1:57 pm

since Sanford wears lingerie under his suit while citing scripture that is a dad those boys are probably better off without

Vartan84 August 7, 2009 at 1:57 pm

Woah she’s dressed like some Victorian grand dame.

SayItWithWookies August 7, 2009 at 1:58 pm

When Gov. Sanford says he’s working on his marriage, does that include getting treatment for his delusion that he’s King David? Because anyone who thinks he has God’s special dispensation to fuck around is probably on the verge of something much, much crazier.

Come here a minute August 7, 2009 at 1:59 pm

The light in that photo makes it look like a drawing from Dick Tracy comics. Yet another Madonna connection, after “Don’t Cry For Me, Argentina”. Soon A-Rod will be knocking up the Sanford sons.

Barrett808 August 7, 2009 at 2:01 pm

Gotta say I like her fashion sense.

Can the Mexican mistress move into the mansion with him now?

What are dinner conversations like in their house with Daddy left behind?

“Sometimes mommies and daddies need time on their own, and sometimes daddies spark with a hot tamale from south of the border.”

How do you send your kids back to school after this? How do you protect them from what is certain to be incredible teasing and embarrassment?

And with four of the little sumbitches always pestering you, how do you let hot Argentinian men know that you’re open for business on the revenge sex front?

Dave J. August 7, 2009 at 2:05 pm

Karma’s a bitch Mark. Try that family values platform back on before your 2012 run to see if it still fits. Bet it doesn’t.

Why can’t we be so lucky as to get the Luv Guv to “pull a Palin” and quit and leave as well. It’s not like he’s done anything beneficial for our state the stupid bastard. I hear he can get a room real cheap on “C” Street.

Mr Blifil August 7, 2009 at 2:07 pm

I can’t feel sorry for the kids. It would have been much easier if they had just gone to their Mom after one of their many ritual molestations and said: ” Hey I noticed something funny about the way Dad’s dick smelled this week…”

NYNYNY August 7, 2009 at 2:07 pm

Her new number in Charleston will be 867-5309.

ManchuCandidate August 7, 2009 at 2:08 pm

Nothing like spending two weeks traveling with the family to realize how much they can’t build their dreams on suspicious minds when both she and he’s lost that loving feeling. And what’s worse, he can’t go back crying to Argentina since he blew up that bridge. It could have been worse for Mark if she flipped out and took a Skilsaw to his ‘nads.

Apparently, Jenny’s new number is 867-5309.

TIMELINE:
- Mark Sanford proposed a healing reconciliation in Europe
- Mark Sanford leaves the hotel room for a “bucket of ice”
- Jenny Sanford receives a phone call 4 hours later from the police division covering the red light district in Amsterdam, asking her to come bail out her husband, who was caught drunk in the street trying to propose marriage to various prostitutes
- Mark and Jenny Sanford return to the U.S.A.
- Jenny Sanford moves out of the Governor’s mansion with cartoon dollar signs flashing in her eyes, tells children daddy never loved them

Ummm, are the people who like the way she’s dressed straight women or gay guys? Or web bots?

That must be her “kick him to the curb” hat.

I kinda feel sorry for the two little ones, because they kinda look like him. And there’s probably not a lot of hot Argentinian elementary school tail at the Porter Gaud school in Charleston.

Mark Sanford: ONCE, I knew passion! ONCE, I knew true otherwordly amor on a high, spiritual, Argentinian plane! NOW, I will do the right thing and return to my cold, arid marriage and do my damnedest to MAKE IT WORK, warmed only by the knowledge that ONCE I basked in the sunlight of TRUE LOVE.

Jenny Sanford: FUCK YOU

I’m pretty sure there’s a hit Broadway musical in this story.

Failed 2 Menace August 7, 2009 at 2:19 pm

It appears the school year in Charleston begins August 18, so it seems that her leaving now to get the kids in place for school is in fact a reasonable move, presuming of course that’s the district where they prefer their progeny be laughed at.

Damn disappointing when facts come along and spoil a perfectly fun theory that she’s cold ditching his ass nearly a month before it’s necessary.

Why the crikey does school get rolling in SC in mid-August? It’s hotter than hell.

4) faculty, dept. of hotel management, NC Community College

Gotta feel sorry for those kids with their glowing ears.

Please stop making fun of her look – that’s a great hat.

If I knew Gene Wilder put it up for grabs after giving the factory to Charlie Bucket, I would have bid on it myself.

Charleston? How about Sturgis! Jenny and Megan could be this decade’s Thelma and Louise. Whatever biker she chooses should have a side-car where the kidlets can be stuffed.

Godless Liberal August 7, 2009 at 2:36 pm

For a few weeks now, there has been a lot of complaints from residents of Governor’s Hill about all the fucking that goes on, in public, in the neighborhood. I guess Jenny has had it up to here with all the sex, too.

Those poor kids. Dressed up like Mormon missionaries in hot August. Her outfit dates back to 1933. How sad. My four boys would have rebelled. Too bad Mr. Sanford did not use discretion. I think he needed Argentina in a bad way. However, he should have stood the expenses from his own wallet.

Chet Kincaid August 7, 2009 at 4:43 pm

Poor Jenny Sanford, leaving her sad-sack, cheating hypocrite of a husband “for the sake of” four little sad-sack doppelgangers of the morose dick who saddled her with them in the first place. Good luck raising better men.

Maybe this train-wreck of a marriage is symbolic of all the “fiscal conservative” Wall Street types who aligned themselves with the Moral Majority Bible Thumpers back in the ’80s. Marriage of convenience, indeed. Look how it’s turned out for all involved!

Hmmm gears at work now. Lets find Jenny someone she can spend the rest of her life with. Someone now a wingnut, sleazeball, male hooker.

I sure hope she left her wingnut husband a fleshlight on the way out.
