" Jenny Sanford is the wife of the governor correct. You heard of her you've seen her. Mother of four boys may be a -- you've seen on TV up and his suppose the power behind thrown down them she ran his campaigns for congress up. I don't know she ran governors while that she's been a major. Not you know not just a trophy wife now she's a proud to partner. -- partner not just in a news in the home but also in the business yes absolutely and she's handling this situation in a way that I think is quite remarkable most wives stand there and look on with a stress look in their faces when their husbands make their confessions. She wasn't there. That stroke and -- do object do you think she was a failure is a trophy wife. No I don't think what you do do is absolutely the right thing to do she's obviously very very troubled by the situation and shoes at ticket she's expressed what are priority -- try to. You think she should be hanging him out to dry the wishes well I mean. He's hung himself out to dry she's not adding anything to the -- did know she is because when they first came to her. She said I don't know Aureus and I don't care. Had she not added the I don't care part they might not have paid that much attention the fact that he was missing for a few days ago. But when she during the and I don't care Baja. Then the story takes form doesn't it takes on different life yes. And and so that was certainly change in the course of the story. A little bit but that's not unfair they had obviously had a discussion about this and she was beside herself with the trauma. And she's a mother a mother react you know and my mother bail with the cubs she's trying to protect the four boys. From the nonsense. And his infidelities you -- likely honesty better that that's really with the stories about his feel like a woman who's honest -- honest to me there was that the video of her yes issues offer by cried. And they were asking her stuff like in or should he resign or what should happen -- My job right now seeing from my children that's what I care about everything I do. Has to do what's best for my kids that's right it was great because it was so grounded in reality. Some politicians. Simple truth politicians always use those lines but they don't live you know how many times sued Google resigned. After having spent fifty years in public life and they decide to hang it up. And that what's the reason I want to spend more time with their -- my children. He's a revote never seen their children except for the photograph in their office on his. And sudden lane I need more time when my family is a big box -- opt opt opt. That is that is true I mean you know arrest those positions of power without giving up big years of your life yeah. To be out on the road campaigning -- to be working -- look at these guys who worked in the White House is big sacrifice these guys he has now they don't sleep people's eyes roll and more than a few hours at a big big sacrifice the most people might. To be in government wanted to -- that's different from saying it's public service you know a guy who's -- not just talking about politicians to talk about political operatives -- guys were out there working -- like these White House 'cause -- drama and lives -- if they go home and sleep for five hours a -- that's their time at home and the rest of the time their work and if their home their working. And if they're awake there working and if there are slick they're area woken up when the beeper goes off in heaven."

" Yeah well heaven forbid that they actually may be on a Sunday morning might be home ham breakfast with the family. And the young children in the beeper goes off and somebody says oh it's an emergency it's a crisis. Yeah these people crazy but you know upside -- I like which in -- is doing elect the very very cool Leo. Thinking that's going on she is like a mother -- the cubs have been threatened she's gonna protect those kids ferociously. Good for her."

" What happened on January obviously. We both indicated a willingness tend to continue working in America but there's not a particular Americans and sold. I've done everything. In my power possibly to keep him from going to be heard until two billion pictures -- he bought including definitely pretty no when I have to at least two weeks ago. It was with experience again that's trying to get him to. Cotton and he what he read. He was told in no uncertain terms of preparation do not taught to children Courtney."

" Now that's Jenny Sanford the wife of the governor of South Carolina. In what the -- Washington Post describes today. As having drawn a new path for the aggrieved spouse of a philandering politicians an episode that has become something of a ritual in American politics. This is a new way of dealing that is being honest seeing out on credit or her own territory as a person up and saying here's where I stand. And hero -- my needs are I care about our kids. And I'm going to protect the children."

" I'm not sure the only thing I disagree with his to do a notion that it's that this is a novelty I think there are plenty of women now maybe not -- and maybe not politicians' wives. But it it thereupon you are people who have been hurt. By this type of behavior in a marriage who stand very very all the holes this morning it's clearly and get to the beat -- look at the spouse the sitting spouse and I say wait a minute. This is about me and the kids now make up your mind but you're not gonna dilly dally under the same roof. Go and either cleanse the plate of this other situation are ought to be god -- the -- delegation is the children."

" a conversation is about in the context of a political home women have traditionally sacrifice. The truth in order to stand by their man and retain power. It seems to me. That when I saw Jenny Sanford talking over the weekend I said she's -- want I want in the governor's a year ago -- is a leader now because values come first doing the right thing comes first. Mark Sanford. Who stood up and tell -- when when Bill Clinton did his thing is dissent from law moralizing about demanded the resignation of people who've been in his situation true though when it's him he considers resigning it says no I've decided not to yeah. Now what ever happen to the high morals standards sure."

" Show whether you know to us Scott Lehigh you who writes it would have good column for the globe and a regular basis talked about this last week. In charge about infidelity should not emphasis on the word not emphasis and infidelity should not end. Political career as any -- about senate and sent out of Nevada. Kind of got up on the you know hypocritical high cost and went on and on and on about Clinton's infidelities endangering national security and."

" While blah blah that's not an Internet protocol. The hypocrisy is not holding yourself to the same standard you hold others to -- hypocrisy if there's you know people are gonna fail to meet the standards that they set that doesn't mean you shouldn't set the -- just a great story that we -- fall short and and we should have standards that we're going to -- only hope and pray that each week you going to be better you know closer follower and a better example of the life and in my case. And account for trade for the of the left an example of Jesus Christ with culture are probably the moment we step by Automask and that does make you hypocrite for how -- the standard I'd like politicians who have tough standards and a high expectations. It's just meet them for yourself right there you go when you're required a lot of other people first just 6172666860. American -- NW RQ good morning."

" Hey good morning guys and you always. And -- that question Leo it's all about the death penalty what about the case. We had in Massachusetts the -- yet what those those two animal did I -- debt. Out of out there what -- can -- that would -- it shall all what Kate yes strike it daughter."

" How can -- what -- stopped and America today."

" I don't want the death penalty shot at the end of -- about rest that -- a politician and that they've changed their mind up that panel."

" Now yeah well I you know there's a great book that just came out on a written by Brian Macquarie of the who was a Boston Globe reported tandem in the midst of the book. It's a great great Judy that this -- went on but his first. Impulse was the blood -- that I think would all feel let -- SOB myself. But that's not what -- judicial assist system is supposed to do it's not supposed to. Satisfy my lust for revenge somebody does -- a regimen does something like that. I'd exhaust every possible avenue to kill again oh my -- I would do what I mean I'm not I hope I don't sound like a lipstick on a note that sound like your normal for us a natural human -- policy going to strangle the person who did to hound to your son a daughter."

" You discuss -- 172666. Seats -- civil let's say focus that was previous -- and let's say focus on the political careers of retirement right now he Sanford."

" This step and out and in a nice nice way on behalf of her children and letting the world know that there are certain standards that he's the -- the governor. Has to. Reach and has to live -- if they're gonna have any any chance of resurrecting the marriage."

" Yeah I read one column over the weekend that said the state everybody in the station do the same thing with -- young which is you throw him out there and a way because come back for redemption let him do that later. John Hopkins in the morning your NW RKO."

" Hey good morning guys good morning jog eight I'd probably to review -- chi said that -- know Horry was. Exactly where laws and humans doing the right thing -- covering -- in the subways and that are reading so."

" Well she says she she was hoping -- that guy in the how we played she said she was hoping he was doing -- hiking she didn't know so you're right she didn't go. -- reveal all at that point. But she also didn't cover up form."

" We -- think thing about her is that she -- the little political campaign what are the best they've been in the state. Former Wall Street executive comes from a Bentley -- a tremendous amount of money if you would ever want your vote credential you make a political run that inject."

" Yeah yeah very impressive woman and she's she's savvy woman. And it's interesting that she's not playing that maybe she's me -- maybe don't give her too much credit she's orchestrating a political career who knows head."

" In -- again that he would wake up you would hook that caught. That with his children with real life that if you look at those children you better. You know totally normal back. Any and I'm. He was told in no uncertain terms he was not -- So I truly you know I -- news on the inflation trail. Yet but I -- not -- pretty PDI I have accompanied -- an -- thirteen somewhere and I think you're helping him at the apple -- help but."

" You look at that it kind of second Argentine."

" You -- Europe. And I admit I guess that's what we'll have to see. I believe he has."

" Or is that question broken I don't know -- has broken it off a Birmingham township. They get out and I had and I and consider that maybe she being contrived and that's it that that this she's trying to have that she's ourselves I'll tell lookalike. She's a great one here yeah that's always say that's always a possibility and you have to think it but I -- she seems very sincere I prefer to think that she is thinking of the larger mission I was a couple of things she's she was a Wall Street executive you have to think. That she's made a pretty decent amount of money she does come from a family of substantial wealth and she has seen the role in the responsibility of government Watson -- it's not. It's not old you know ceremonies and people -- warning you know governor rod you grade level while there's a lot of just grubby DTL two and all. I suspect that she has a higher sense of value share and -- before. Young boys that are under her care protect it should come first down normally politicians only paid lip service from putting their kids unless they're just don't normally do some. Only pay are not talking about stay artists and others still. Talking about you know the people operating at this level of the bilateral alliance to gaining power you know at all costs is an intensity to that. Pursued your opinion please 6172666860. Thomas -- 680 dove."
