CNN’s Jake Tapper to Mark Sanford: Who are you to deny love between two men?

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/04/03/cnns-jake-tapper-to-mark-sanford-who-are-you-to-deny-love-between-two-men/

CNN host Jake Tapper on Wednesday questioned former Gov. Mark Sanford regarding views on same sex marriage in light of his own affair.

Tapper wondered why people should respect the Republican South Carolina congressional candidate’s opposition to same sex marriage when he himself “did not lead an exemplary life as a husband.”

“Who are you to deny love between two men or two women, when you are somebody who talks about following his heart, regardless of the laws and traditions of the state of South Carolina? Why are you sitting in judgment of same sex couples, when you have had the life you have had?” he asked.

self-righteous, hypocritical pos that he is.

forgot to add, completely clueless, as witness the fact that he actually asked his ex-wife to run this campaign for him.
