In a stunning confession, South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford admitted Wednesday to being "unfaithful" to his wife during a press conference meant to account for his mysterious week-long absence. "I've let down a lot of people. That's the bottom line," he said. "I've been unfaithful to my wife." Sanford, who just returned from Argentina, said he developed a "relationship with what started out as a dear, dear friend from Argentina."

I had a bad feeling from the start that this is what it would be all about. Affairs like this know no political party. They are about human weakness. Republicans can have affairs and so can Democrats.

This is why in the 1990's I was against attacking Clinton over his behavior, bad as it was. I knew this would blow back on the Republicans/Conservatives. The News Media would make the conservatives look like hypocrites. It was bound to happen and it has. The Democrats have John Edwards, Elliot Spitzer, etc. and now we have Ensign and Sanford.

It's not about political alignment, it's just human nature (weakness). The "conservatives" to decided to make a big deal out of Clinton's behavior are now bearing some sour fruit.

The GOP fails on so many counts. We are at the mercy of the D party....and they will show no mercy.

[dforest]

I am sick of this. Hey out there. Are there any more sleazy GOP fools hiding something like this?

Stand up and speak up now.

Then go the hell away.

Good point. Where’d you get your strength?

If this will remain a thread, you can add this as the headline, if you wish.

They go and hire women to seduce all the good conservative men

True Conservative men could not be seduced.

Even this guys "other" head is retarded.

We need photographic evidence to draw a proper conclusion.

[Obadiah]

Seriously, what is wrong with these guys? Why are they of such weak moral fiber?

I refuse to condemn someone without walking a mile in their moccasins. the morality of this not withstanding...people don’t always get what they need...

“$h!t happens, someone has to deal with it and who you gonna call?”

[RichInOC]

Well, the man said he wanted to do something exotic...and so he did.

[ladyvet]

Great, just in time to run so Iran, cap and trade, Buffet calling the economy a shambles and every other freakin’ Boy-King screw up gets pushed to the back page.....again.

Why didn’t he just bring her here instead of flying all over the place and making himself so conspicuous?

Any answers on who was in charge of SC while he was gone?
