Maria Belan Chapur, 43 years old, is the woman who has stole Sanford’s heart. Mark Sanford’s wife, Jenny Sanford, has forgiven him.

Jenny Sanford was recently interviewed by Vogue, here is a portion of the interview:

For now, the first lady of South Carolina is groping for the high road and trying to keep an open mind. “If you don’t forgive,” she says, “you become angry and bitter. I don’t want to become that. I am not in charge of revenge. That’s not up to me. That’s for the Lord to decide, and it’s important for me to teach that to my boys. All I can do is forgive. Reconciliation is something else, and that is going to be a harder road. I have put my heart and soul into being a good mother and wife. Now I think it’s up to my husband to do the soul-searching to see if he wants to stay married. The ball is in his court.”

Whole Foods Boycott

Many are supporting a Whole Foods Boycott after Whole Foods CEO John Mackey wrote an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal against the Obama Health Care Plan.

Many people who do believe in the Obama health care plan will be boycotting the organic food store. John Mackey even argued that health care wouldn’t be necessary if we ate right! Here is a quote of what Mackey said:

Recent scientific and medical evidence shows that a diet consisting of foods that are plant-based, nutrient dense and low-fat will help prevent and often reverse most degenerative diseases that kill us and are expensive to treat. We should be able to live largely disease-free lives until we are well into our 90s and even past 100 years of age.

Either way, many of us may join the Whole Foods Boycott but then again many of us can’t afford to even shop at Whole Foods, so it’s off to the Mc Donal’s $1 Dollar Menu! What do you think about the Whole Foods Boycott?

The event will be in Portsmouth, New Hampshire and the tickets were distributed by lottery to roughly 1500 people. The White House expects some tough questions and even a possible disruption during the event.

Earlier this morning, Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter held a town hall meeting and was met with boos, jeers, tough questions, and shouts from people in the audience. Folks, this doesn’t look like these protests are dying out anytime soon.
