Slut, Bitch, Whore

I’m not talking about Anna Nicole Smith, but in keeping with the theme, let’s talk about gossip closer to home. Gavin Newsom. Wow, that guy can’t keep himself out of trouble. First, there was the public spectacle of dating a 19-year-old. If you’re going to date someone who’s half your age AND underage, at least keep it under wraps. Don’t start bringing her to public events. What an idiot!

Then he goes and sleeps with a friend’s wife. Mind you, this ain’t any old friend. This is his campaign manager. Someone who has supported him, campaigned for him, and helped him become the public figure he is today. What betrayal! Shame on Gavin. This is disloyalty at its finest. The debate continues. Forgive or forget. Everyone seems to have their own opinions.

What I’m trying to come to grips with is…why isn’t anyone talking about the wife, Ruby Rippey-Tourk?!?! I think she deserves most of the blame here. Sure Gavin’s at fault, too. But his marriage was falling apart. The divorce was being processed.

Ruby was married. She had just had a baby! It doesn’t get any worse than that! A new mother should be spending time with her husband and their baby together. Instead, she’s running around, seducing her husband’s friend. If anyone should be called to resign, it should be Ruby…from her mother and wife duties. I’m surprised no one seems to be blaming her when she is the one most at fault. Ok, sorry for all the negativity. Just something I’ve wanted to get off my chest for a while.

Why resort to cheating? Communicate, have a conversation, voice your frustrations. Ruby, Ruby, Ruby. Go through that 12-step program and keep us posted. You need the help.
