Very sad

[KoRn]

Another one bites the dust.

[bestintxas]

strike him from consideration.

Has the GOP sunk this low to have expected this type of man to climb the ladder up, yet have these type of deficiencies, apparently of a non-casual variety?

[gussiefinknottle]

Not sad, infuriating and stupid and selfish.

[capydick]

We will know more about this affair within 24 hours than we will ever know about John Edwards affair and the subsequent love child.

[DJ Frisat]

Stupid bastard. Conservatives can’t get away with this.

[aShepard]

So many of these politicians were so smart as children that they were able to skip kindergarden.

They missed the lesson to the little boys:

Keep your pee-pee in your pants!

[cripplecreek]

He’ll be fine. At least he admits it and appears genuinely sorry. The GOP as a whole on the other hand hasn’t even admitted they have a problem yet.

[bigbob]

Very sad stupid

Thanks for contributing absolutely nothing to the public perception of conservatives, Sanford, you turd.

Proving the age-old axiom that "p#ssy will make a man stupid"

[Mark was here]

What he should do now is simple. He should return every campaign contribution he received, out of his own pocket. Then he can start over in Argentina for all I care.

Mark Sanford, the governor of South Carolina, apologized in a rambling news conference on Wednesday for having an extra-marital affair with a woman in Argentina, ending a mystery over his week-long disappearance that had infuriated lawmakers and seemed to put his rising political career in jeopardy.

I think it's safe to say that his political career no longer SEEMS to be in jeopardy.

Sarah will never have to embarrass herself, her family, or her party like this.

[Non-Sequitur]

In revealing an affair that had gone on for about a year — and which he had disclosed to his wife, Jenny, five months ago, he said: “This was selfishness on my part.”

So he started cheating on his wife a year ago, told her about it 5 months ago, and then kept on seeing the other woman as recently as this week? "Sad" is not the word I would have chosen. "Scum" is more like it.

[bgill]

"I don’t know how this thing got blown out of proportion,” he said.

Resign already and shut up.

[Liberty Valance]

What an arrogant ass.

[Phantom Lord]

Is there any photographic evidence to determine guilt or innocence?

[FreedomFerret]

I almost want Sarah to run as an Independent so she isn’t pulled down by the rest of the GOP.

[kevinm13]

Why would somebody think they could get away with this and not get caught especially a high profile figure like a governor? As much as I liked Gov. Sanford for his politics, he is now toxic waste. What a shame.

[Tired of Taxes]

LOL at the Democrats “outraged” by the governor’s behavior. They’re such hypocrites.

[Glenn]

Where do they get the energy?

[Buckeye McFrog]

but he now holds the Guinness Book record for long-distance booty call.....
