Apparently Gov. Sanford of South Carolina is still talking about the Argentina woman, and several other women he has "crossed the line" with.

You know, at some point, it stops being a confession and starts being bragging.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co ... eheadlines

I really love the fact that he will "try" to love his wife. Jeez that just got to make her feel oh so special.

So why is Mark Sanford giving us details of his many affairs and basically insulting his wife? Is he bragging? Has the pressure of the job cause him to snap, or is he insane?

its that southeastern humidity.

if he wants polyamoury, why doesn't he sponser a bill in his state's legislature to legally recognize it?
and encourage his wife to participate on an equal basis.

how is dishonesty more moral then honest equality?

what i think is a sham is the whole pretense of morality having anything to do with where and how persons of any gender find erotic gratification.

i also don't see inequality in these matters anything to be proud of nor brag about.
truth isn't what i say. isn't what you say. isn't what anybody says. truth is what is there, when no one is saying anything.

"economic freedom" is "the cake"

My question is why is he being allowed to keep his job while other governors like Spitzer had to resign for their sexual antics?

Uh huh ...

It does make you wonder whether Sanford thinks that forgiveness is proportional to the number of sins you confess to. Maybe the Protestant Reformation wasn't such a good idea. If the Catholic Church had stayed undivided we'd probably have plenary indulgences by payroll deduction by now, and this could all be cleared up with a simple call to Human Resources.

People do want him to resign, but he isn't. Apparently he wants to teach his kids to never quit.

People do want him to resign, but he isn't. Apparently he wants to teach his kids to never quit.

He is a lame-duck, 18 months left on his last term, so maybe the legislature figures it'll be less bad press if they just let him hang around than go through the whole impeachment ordeal.

The people of South Carolina can't recall him either, so that's out of the question.

Pity. On a brighter note:

Reuters wrote:Sanford's spokesman Joel Sawyer told the South Carolina newspaper The State on Thursday that the governor "is finished discussing this matter" and is "focused on being governor, on rebuilding his marriage and on building back the trust of South Carolinians."


Here's the article.

Hmm ... Maybe Todd Palin, he looks like a good ol' boy, but Sarah? I just don't see it. Sure, they have a bunch of kids but I don't see her putting out.

I'll have to think about this one.
