The 2009 Matties: Humping the Appalachian Trail

It takes some kind of man to cheat on his wife, but it takes particular brand of asshole to cheat on his wife with a woman in a different hemisphere, while on paid leave from his tax-payer funded job as primary state executive, then not step down from said job.

That’s why the 2009 Matty for Best Extramarital Affair goes to the shameless, scumbag governor of South Carolina who carried on with a woman in Argentina while telling his family and staff he was taking some “alone time” to hike the Appalachian Trail.

Gov. Sanford, with this Matty, I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul…because you wife should not.
