This story is fascinating. I don't recall any other governor, from any political party, ever pulling a stunt like this. Something is very fishy about this. I don't care what party he's with, he's toast. It will be treated as a cover-up, of what we don't know, at least at this time, maybe never. It will be seen in the same light as the missing 18 minutes of discussion that was erased from the Nixon White House tapes. The press smells dirt ($$$$) and now they'll dig forever to find it.

It's Father's DAY. So why can't a father do what he wants to on that day. Maybe he spends all of his normal off time with his kids?

Obama went golfing on Sunday, Father's Day, WITHOUT his kids. So what's HIS problem?

Default U.S. embassy had ‘absolutely no idea’ that Sanford was in Argentina.

Not only did Gov. Mark Sanford’s (R) family and staff seemingly not know that he had taken off to Argentina for the past week, but ABC News reports that the U.S. embassy in Argentina didn’t know either.This will go over well in 2010 if he decides to run. He turns his back on his family and constituents. Family values, ahhhh not so much.Think Progress » U.S. embassy had ‘absolutely no idea’ that Sanford was in Argentina.

could be worse. he could be hiding rape and murder as is the policy with the democrat party. see clinton, kennedy, and condit for examples.

I do too. But since this isnt going to a customer of mine or any upper management in my company I really couldnt care less.

Nice little doggie of you to try and defend, though. You deserve a nice treat.

Do you really want to play that game, tit for tat?

One of my customers from Florence, S.C. went down there last year to "hunt" doves.

According to him, he and three friends killed 22,000 birds in a week just to watch them fall out of the sky.

I'd rather Sanford have a mistress, if it's all the same.

Noooooooooo, Dukester, that's not what I'm saying. Upton made the comment that since he left his family on Father's Day that Sanford was gay and there was problems with his marriage.....

I'm saying it's OK for father's to do what they want to do on THEIR day. It doesn't make Sanford GAY to go a trip, or make him an adulterer. Maybe not the wisest move for him to go without telling anyone, but the lib's are going to attack him because he is a republican. I know the republican's would do the same if he was a dem.
