One of the big things I abhor is that Gov Sanford who touted being such a family man did not spend Father's Day with his sons, but went to Argentina to be with his lover. How sick is that???
I didn't think anyone could be more disgusting than Norm Coleman - I was wrong, Governor Sanford. Forget the fact that you had an affair; that's commonplace these days amongst politicians and men of faith. It's the fact that you abandoned South Carolina for 5 days and NO ONE, not your aides, colleagues or family, could reach you. That was dangerously irresponsible for a Governor. Plus, you took public funds to fly down to Argentina to see your mistress: that's theft. And you refused stimulus money because it was against your politics. Let's see: you lied, stole and abandoned your state. Time to go. As far as Coleman is concerned, have we seated Senator Franken yet? Is it too much for me to hope that the GOP will be completely voted out of office in 2010? We've got real problems to deal with and these neocon bozos are a waste of time.
these republican white boys need to learn to stop running around with their cheney hanging out.
What is there to investigat
And beside all that he used Taxpayers money to get laid.
You mean the man got laid at the expense of the tax payer?
I thought the money came from the STIMULANT PORTION of the Stimulus Bill.
I might be a little bit confused but here is a link http://eco
and a quote from Rush L.
"The conservative radio host, Rush Limbaugh, suggested that a picture of Ms. Pelosi in everyone’s bedroom would provide a more cost-effective solution"
He found his own Ms. Pelosi and can we blame him for that?
And broke some laws along the way. I think SC should roast him abit before they run him out of town...
Little chuckie...
I know he sued two state vehicals, one at the columbia airport and one at the aiport in antanlta..
if so please post them here. thanks!
Investigate? They have his *confession* of abdicating his responsibility. Most people in the private sector who voluntarily disappeared for five days would be officially fired before they even got back.
it becomes MY BUSINESS when the man gets up and spills his guts in front of everyone.
it becomes MY BUSINESS when his character is called into question; lying to his wife, kids, friends, and family. if he's lying to them, he's lying to you the voters.
for all you repugs who say his private life should remain private,,,
Sanford left his duties unattended while he left the country to visit his mistress. He used State
money. He should have already resigned.!
No one cares that these Republicans do things that other normal people do and no one would care if they just quit campaigning against and interfering with other people's lives.
That is what is wrong with the GOP. They practice bigotry through legislative powers to satisfy the wackiest segment of their base but don't hold themselves to the same standards they want to force everyone else to live by.
it's mark and cleopatra witha dixie twist , all over again . maybe he takes over argentina and invades the falkland's ...
If you have no respect or empathy for your own family - how can you have any respect or empathy for the people of South Carolina. He rejects the Obama stimulus for good 'ol conservative fiscal responsibility reasons, yet suggests and holds a conference in Argentina at the South Carolina tax payer's expense.
MY FELLOW DEMOCRATS - Let him stay...
Let him stay...the man is an embarrassment to himself, his family, and his party. Let him stay and let America and South Carolinians see why we don't vote for these creeps in the first place. Let him be the beacon of corruption and concupiscence that the Republicans are becoming renowned for.
I live in SC and I would prefer not to let him stay as Governor. He's an embarrassment. The only other place I can think of that I would be more embarrassed to be from would be the 6th Congressional District in Minnesota.
I didn't think Bill Clinton should have resigned or been impeached for his Monica action. It was none of our business.
I don't think Sanford should resign for his Argentine tango. It's none of our business.
I think Sanford should resign because he abdicated his responsibilty as governor, left the state without putting anyone in charge and fabricated trips to see his mistress on the state payroll. That IS our business.
Amen.
Moreover, why was he trying to negotiate a trade deal for South Carolina even though the US has officially stopped all trade missions to Argentina since 2001, after Argentina refused to pay back its international debts?
Sanford's "supposed" mission, clearly went against US policy.
... but, all the Governor could see all day long and in everything he did was the Bebe in Argentina calling, beckoning and reaching out to him. Can you blame him for that?
Biblically, South Carolina and the USA were non-existent in his mind and vision.
Why can't these GnoPers do what they have told others to do? RESIGN!!!
They are the "Do as I say, not as I do" crowd. Are these the type of people that we want governing us? I say NO!
I've noticed that those that talk about the Bible and that nonsense are the ones that don't follow it anyway, but want everyone else to follow the word of God.
Someone had Faux on this afternoon and Hucklebee was on talking with Sanford's replacemen
Are you joking? The Sanfords have been separated for a few weeks; he didn' t have sex in the oval office, and he is not the POTUS. Apples and oranges.
But the bible thumping Huckster forgets
Luke 16:18
Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery. (So Says Jesus)
Lev 20:10
And the man that committeth adultery with [another] man's wife, [even he] that committeth adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
Of course this matter has to be looked into, if for nothing else, then to make sure that taxpayers are reimbursed for whatever public money he spent for personal matters.
However, I feel sorry for his family. He has turned his back on them, and he may have just made himself unemployable, unless someone still wants to hire him to be their lobbyist.
