Sanford Quits RGA, It Was a Woman Afterall!
Chair of the Republican Governors Association (RGA) is no real big issue but then again neither is Mark Sanford now.
In other news, Sarah Palin and Bobby Jindal just cracked a fresh beer.

do we really know if this “person” is a woman?
Looks like Sanford just “Gingriched” himself right out of a promising political career. Nice going, dumbass.
You’ll note, however, that he hasn’t checked into rehab, sought counseling, blamed a staff member or run for PR cover. He reigned from one position. Let’s see what else he does.
I certainly appreciate his response moreso than what we usually see from the other side of the aisle.
oh god….blame the other side.
Which party claims “morals”?
It’s expected for Democrats to be unfaithful, gay, thieves…etc. But that party doesn’t run on “values and morals” do they?

Mark Sanford on the Clinton Impeachment:
“And I voted to impeach, because I think that, you know, moral legitimacy is one of the precursors to a legitimate legacy.”
Hey, Republicans have failings as well. I’m talking about how you can usually tell which party someone belongs to by how they react to being caught up in such a situation.
The press usually helps out as well, in their own special way. Anytime that a Republican is caught doing something, the party affiliation is always front and center. When a Democrat is caught in a similar situation, the party affiliation is always deduced through the absence of any mention of it.
just sayin’
AW1 Tim:
I recall Congressman Mark Foley (R-even though Fox News tried to label him a (D)) going into rehab/counseling after he was caught attempting to molest little boys.
I recall Republican Supporter and Family Values champion, Rev. Ted Haggard going to rehab/counseling after he visited a male prostitute and bought meth.
Uhm Disgruntled, a 17 or 18 year old who swaps e-mail messages isn’t exactly a “little boy.”
If that “little boy” was your son I bet you would think differently.
Neither political party is without stain when it comes to personal failures. Having said that, I am very disappointed in Sanford. I hope he steps down and works on fixing the damage he has done to his family. South Carolina deserves better.
I will differ with COB6 somewhat. While Jindal and Palin might be waiting in the wings, The One must be happy because Sanford did have the high ground by not taking the Stimulus cash. Now there is no Gov that can take a stand against that waste of cash now.
It’s just amazing how many politicians continue to think with their little head. Let’s see, missing governor, gone for a week, don’t tell the family, don’t tell the government? Check, no one would be remotely interested in your whereabouts.
What a maroon!!
Disgruntled, bit of a difference between dirty texts to a 17-year old (Foley, and for the record, FNC NEVER tried to paint him as a “D”), and actually DOING THE DEED with a 16-year old male page (Studds). Mebba him? When Studds resigned–oh wait, he didn’t. Or was that when he was voted out of office by his enraged constituency–oh wait, that didn’t happen either.
Damn. Just damn. Maybe it was the fact his district covers P-town and the Cape. Just sayin.
NHSparky,
Please just google the words “FNC” “Foley” “D” it was done on The O’Reilly Factor on 10/3/06.
To your point about Studds. Your exactly right, I think it’s extremely disgusting when a man goes after a young boy..be it texting, email, social networking, craigslist…or just out in public. These animals should be killed. I don’t give a crap about party affilitation.
A pervert is a pervert….doesn’t matter if they are Republican or Democrat.

Actually, what is amusing is that the left does always show off its hypocrisy as if it was a Medal of Honor. As when the clean living, religious, family-oriented Governor Palin announced her candidacy, the dhimmicraps began having grand mal, diaper-shitting, mouth foaming seizures and started spending megabucks sending dirt-diggers to try to find some kernel of something – anything! – to make into a major issue. Failing that, they simply attacked her children, spread lies, and ranted in demented fury each time that her name or likeness appeared.
So, you would think that they would now embrace this dickhead as one of their own – he emulates their lecher-in-cheif, Billy Bob Clinton, the Grand Adulterer of 1600; imitates Edwards ( except even *this* amoral governor wasn’t quite low enough to screw around on a wife struggling with terminal cancer ) so the Dems should be holding the door open for this guy to join them.
Fact is – he should step down. If he has a sincere conversion and his wife forgives him and they work things out, fine – that is between them. But he has also betrayed the people who trusted in his integrity and shoule hand over they keys to the governor’s office.
Edwards, on the other hand, should just go into the woods with a long piece of rope and a chair.
