Why so many of you feel the need to stoop to making up your own rumors about our good governor is beyond me. You all sound like the folks at DU.
According to his office, he is taking some time to recharge.
A statement from Sanford’s spokesman, Joel Sawyer, says, “Gov. Sanford is taking some time away from the office this week to recharge after the stimulus battle and the legislative session, and to work on a couple of projects that have fallen by the wayside. We are not going to discuss the specifics of his travel arrangements or his security arrangements.”
Sawyer added, “Before leaving last week, he let staff know his whereabouts and that he’d be difficult to reach. Should any emergencies arise between the times in which he checks in, our staff would obviously be in contact with other state officials as the situation warrants before making any decisions.
Sanford’s wife Jenny, told the Associated Press she hasn’t heard from him in several days — including Father’s Day. She says, “He was writing something and wanted some space to get away from the kids.” She and the couple’s four sons are vacationing at the beach, and she says she’s not worried about her husband.
Except that I'm always right and on DU, they're always wrong.
