    be a man and get a divorce

    The most appalling aspect of this are his continued consultations with his church on how to win back his wife's love. How offensive is that!?! According to conservative family types, he just needs a little scripture to cure his cheating ways. He just hasn't been a good conservative hubby and daddy.

    Clue to Gov. Sanford: she's not a prize to win back. There's no secret combination of her buttons to push to take this back.

    Be a man. Admit that you're a bad partner. Get a divorce. If you and Jenny want to remarry later, fine, just stop with the theatrics already. You're embarrassing yourself.
