Sanford's unannounced absence was a cause for concern because the National Guard and the state's top law enforcement agencies report to him, Land said.
SC governor's whereabouts unknown, even to wife (^)
And isn't it the other way around, actually.... The GOV decides he wants the State Guard activated?
How is he supposed to know about potential issues while they're still small, if he hasn't told anyone where he is and has his cell phone turned off (from previous reports). Does he wait to hear about it on the news? Is he watching the news?
Good grief, how many times do we have to state it. HIS OFFICE KNOWS WHERE HE IS.
