Mark Sanford Is A Disgrace
www.politicalcastaway.com ^ | 25 June 09 | Pitcairn

What is it about politicians these days?

Is there some sort of magic elixir in the air that allows these people—regardless of political affiliation--the license to insult the intelligence of their citizens? Or is this some sort of natural “human flaw” that we—the idiots of the proletariat—are supposed to accept as some sort of acceptable characteristic of the people that are supposed to “represent us?”

Give me a freaking break.

What does conservatism have to do with Sanford's love/sex life?

Sanford’s sex life has ZERO to do with Conservatism

Do you think lying, cheating, and not being honorable are part of conservative principles?

Yes or no?

Why are you afraid to answer the question?

Frankly, as disgusted as I am by Sanford's infidelity, that is not what I see as the major problem.

The problem that I see is that Sanford's behavior was totally irrational. He seems to be consciously throwing away his whole career and family for the sake of his concubine.

I don't understand why Sanford came back. He should have stayed in Argentina and gotten a divorce. It would have made more sense.

Mark Sanford...the conservative version of John Edwards....
both are political toast! Only Bwarney Fwank gets away with sexual dalliances...if fact he gets away with tanking the economy too. He’s one protected gargoyle it seems.

re: What I saw in that press conference was a man who was confessing his sin and asking forgiveness.)))

That's not what I heard. I heard way too much romantic narrative and not nearly enough shame. Twoo Wuvv... then he started crying, and I suddenly realized that he's crying over the woman, that's she's going to be branded a whore.

That's when I got mad. Where's her picture? Where's the immoral woman who brought this destruction to us?

I want to know what she looks like. And I want the whole world to know what she looks like.

Well, I suppose if you are the one who determines how much shame is enough then your will will have to be followed.

You respond to a question by posting an image?

In a court or hearing environment, that type of response wouldn't do your credibility a whole lot of good.

I'll leave it to the court...or readers here, to determine what your level of credibility is.

I always enjoy it when interviewing a subject, the point is reached where the subject just flat out declines to answer a basic, legitimate question. It makes it all worth while!

Best regards!

LOL, your still sniveling about the SC Gov?

Seriously, get constructive and make some phone calls to congress like I suggested yesterday.

Anything to take your mind off a man you barely know...maybe turn off TV, that could help.

You will pull thru this, I promise!

Franklin— Ambassador to France when being an ambassador and being French actually meant something. Without the cannons the French supplied us via Franklin’s diplomatic skills there’d be no USA....

And your response is "big deal", as if the affair is the only issue here? Seriously?

Yep....
