My definition of 'affair' is where the guy repeatedly fucks somebody else's wife.

Attention, readers who want more Gavin Newsom Meltdown coverage (and you know who you are): So Newsom's girlfriend Jennifer Siebel was quoted in the Chron slamming Ruby Tourk, the former staffer who Gavin was schtupping:

The woman is the culprit. Alex Tourk is a nice man and it saddens me that his wife did that to him.
Predictably, the quote was picked up by local blog SFist. And here's where it gets interesting: Siebel jumped onto the comments thread and revealed that she is totally fucking batshit.
i am not going to blindly support a woman who has cheated on her husband multiple times and watch while my boyfriend is the only one who gets punished..and, what, for something a long time ago when the man was going through a crises- divorce, the loss of his mother, the pressures of being mayor, etc. and he was vulnerable and lonely? and, what's your definition of affair? he's been so hurt by this all -- personally and professionally- and it was a few nothing incidents when she showed up passed out outside of his door. come on guys, have a heart.... i honestly don't think what i said was in anyway mean to ruby- there are two sides to everything. i just wish her the best in her recovery and marriage and i just wish that she would leave gavin and i alone and stop causing all of this drama and gossip.
P.S. This episode has passed some kind of threshold: thinking about Gavin Newsom no longer makes me think about what a moron I am.
