   He certainly has been living a lie and a life of quiet desperation.

   It’s not so much the adultery as the self righteous, family values braying that went before it.

   And during it.

   And, most likely, after it. (“Dear Lord, I’ve learned my lesson. We should all learn a lesson from this.”)

   The sad part is that the only reason he is “sorry” is that he got caught. I bet he didn’t have one second of remorse when he was in Argentian gettin’ a little.

   He’s just another lying hypocrite!!

   Let us not forget the other failed political fathers: Hart, Clinton, McGreevey, Craig, Foley, Ensign, Vitter, Mehlman, Edwards, the Kennedys (to name a few). They’ve only been doing in private what the administrations been doing publicly since the advent of January 20, 2009.

   Incompetence, the arrogance of the political man leading sheep to trough, and his failure, knows neither race, creed, color, or cunning linguistics, shall we say.

   So JL, you think if Al Gore had been placed in office by the supreme court he’d have crossed the Iraqi border? I find that to be as unlikely as him being placed there by a majority GOP group of court justices, and an outstanding example of “sheep being led to trough” by a republican administration hellbent on dragging us into that war. Tell me what’s been done since January ‘09 to rival that scale of incompetence or arrogance.

   Yeah, well, as I said earlier, I only care about my own sex life. Wish more of us would be as uninterested in what others do with their personal parts. And Danziger is right…it’s boring.

   Cpt. Jason Lanier, most of us don’t care a rat’s rear what the politicians do with their sex lives. That’s not the issue. The issue is that those who moralize and tell others how to live their private lives (Republicans) are doing the very things they so piously condemn. That’s what gets people ticked off.

   The other issue with Sanford is the freak disappearance. No matter what you’re doing in your private life, if you’re the governor of a state you don’t just disappear for six days without letting your subordinates knowing how they can reach you and when you’ll be back. Shows even worse judgment, and for South Carolinians, that ought to be the biggest issue.

    The really big issue for the state of South Carolina was that he didn’t leave instructions with his lt. gov to act in case of a state emergency.

    He borrowed a page from Jimmy Swaggert’s Play Book.
    Remember how Jimmy Cried when he was caught with his Pants down?

    Republicans just don’t get it… If they weren’t so “Morally” correct, and this “Marriage is between a Man and a Woman” Plus Abstinence Only tripe, then the Media would not make such a big deal when one of their own Members or their Family Members is caught engaging in sexual relations with the same sex, their children becoming Teen Parents, Both Men and Woman having affairs with members of the opposite sex. It could have been worse, Mr. Sanford could have been busted for having sex with a Male or Transgendered Prostitute.
