Week in Review

Don't Cry for Him, Argentina

Honestly my darlings, Mean Betty really doesn't care about the sex lives of politicians (ick). But, Mean Betty truly wants to know: Why can't they be more CLEVER and DISCREET about their infidelities? Is that really too much to ask? Whether it's that pathetic anti-prostitution crusader Eliot Spitzer being caught with a hooker, or this latest yokel Governor Sanford with his caliente mistress down Argentina way - one really does have to wonder how they managed to land themselves in office in the first place.

What kind of idioto would think no one would notice he wasn't really hiking the Appalachian trail, but engaging in a different kind of exercise? (And Mean Betty doesn't mean the Tango.) He tried to refuse government bailout money for his state, but took tax-paid trips to another continent to canoodle? Muy stupido!

Tell Mean Betty, mi amors - was it a bigger crime to write those love-struck e-mails (Google them if you must) to his Argentine tamale, or to think they wouldn't ever become public?

Mean Betty's biggest eye-roll came when she read Sanford's statement that he spent "the last five days of my life crying in Argentina." You mean like this, Governor?

Jon and Kate Just Want Privacy!

Too rich! The couple that has made their fortune exploiting their children on television and blabbing out all their most personal details is suddenly feeling a little publicity-shy? Can it be? Mean Betty hears the Octomom^TM role models have filed for divorce in a county (not their own) that keeps divorce records sealed.

Pardon? You mean you don't want us all to know the intimate, seamy details of your failed marriage? Could have fooled Mean Betty!

Lady Nut Cake

"(Lady Gaga) is who I am. Me and my hair bow, we go to bed together. She sleeps where I sleep."

Well of course! What kind of a lunatic do you think we think you are, dear Lady? Of course we know you don't have a separate BEDROOM for your hair bow ... she'd be all alone and frightened!

Adios amigos - until next week ...
