Sanford admits he never hiked!

Foxnews ^

[ConservativeMan55]

Brian on Fox and Friends now says the Governor took a Cruise...

This is getting weirder!!

[CAluvdubya]

I accept your challenge.....I'm a very strong supporter of Sarah Palin. I actually voted for Duncan Hunter in my primary though.

I think Sanford's actions are very odd. I'm not going to berate others andblindly support someone just because they are conservative.

[Ditter]

Fathers day, mothers day and valentines day must be extremely important around your house. I see those days as very important for the greeting card industry so I am pretty skeptical too.

[wtc911]

Get the facts at any cost....

_________________________________

And who has those facts? Sanford. Where is he? Why is there nothing from him? You tell me.

As I wrote I was hoping the guy was for real but it will take a lot of convincing for me to stay on the FR's Sanford ping list.

[pburgh01]

Don’t joke maybe he was at Bohemian Grove to worship Moloch the Giant Owl. His political career is over, most likely he was getting some some with some hottie in Jamaica. Ill bet DU and other appendages in the gay mafia stalkarazzi left, aka Perez Hilton are digging hard for pics that is if he has recovered from being called a faggot and taking a beating by one of the Black Eyed Peas.

“smoke and mirrors by the MSM propagandists to deflect attention.”

...is there something in particular they are needing to deflect attention from?

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Interesting.

I also support Governor Palin.

You see no similarities between the way she, and Governor Sanford are being assailed?

I sure do.

[Never on my watch]

“But in all fairness, you have to admit ... if Mr. Obama had “disappeared” for a few days, we'd be on that story like stink on sh!t.”

THANK YOU! Point scored for consistency and reason!

I'll betcha very few would be called jackals or hyenas either.

[MHGinTN]

I sincerely pity the man who would be married to you ... you are more than willing to believe press rumors and the assertions of know Sanford enemies, to condemn and elevate your high holy self to revered status. You don’t know the details of his relationship with his wife and kids, whether he in fatc called to talk to them or was told in advance by them to enjoy hissolitutde, yet you relish the opportunity to lord your ‘understanding’ of family over us to tell us Governor Sanford is a bad husband and fialed father. You stealth libes are so transparent sometimes, even at FR!

[wtc911]

can we be certain that Sanford was not in close communication with folks he could trust so that he was not ‘lost’?

_______________________________

ASAIK, nobody has come forward and said that that is the case. Why not?

[MHGinTN]

Notice it is the n00b who jumps in to agree with your flawed assertion? Take care, my FRiend, such should give you pause, at least.

[MHGinTN]

I’ll answer after the 2PM presser, okay?

[CAluvdubya]

You see no similarities between the way she, and Governor Sanford are being assailed?

OMG! Did she bug out and go to Argentina without telling the First Dude or her staff, too? /s

The similarities would be if the media has made Sanford's trip up and he never left the city, much less the country. The media didn't make up that this man took off and his wife didn't know where he was and his staff lied about or didn't know where he was.

[txhurl]

I bet he was on a Malbec vineyard scouting, looking to invest.

[BP2]

Yes, one POTUS, 50 governors ...

But both are the Chief Executive for the entity they govern (scary in Obama’s case).

From our good friends at Wiki:

The Governor of the State of South Carolina is the head of state for the State of South Carolina.

Under the South Carolina Constitution, the Governor is also the head of government, serving as the chief executive of the South Carolina executive branch.

The Governor is the ex officio Commander-in-Chief of the South Carolina National Guard when not called into Federal use.

IF his trip was really unknown by his staff and wife, he shouldn't have done that.

However, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that his staff and wife DID ACTUALLY know where he was, but just didn't cover for him very well ...

[Never on my watch]

Who’s the n00b?

Do your research.

Oh, and not a flawed assertion.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Have you spoken to Mrs. Sanford directly ?

[fieldmarshaldj]

I see you’re finding common cause with the FReeper trolls. Carry on.

[GraceG]

>> For ME — the MORE Conservative, the better — rock on Sanford.

But looking at this SHORT list:

Republican politicians that have had extra-marital affairs:
- Newt Gingrich
- John McCain (first wife)
- Rudy Giuliani
- David Vitter
- Larry Craig
- Henry Hyde
- etc.

Democrat politician that have had extra-marital affairs:
- Kennedy (take your pick)
- Bill Clinton
- James McGreevey
- Jon Corzine
- Eliot Spitzer
- John Edwards
- etc. <<

Maybe the Ancient Chinese were on to something when they made their rulers eunuchs. I would bet that any politician willing to loose their manhood to serve the public good would have enough “cajones” to actually make the right decisions.

[MHGinTN]

You’re a n00b ... until you’ve been at FR for two years or more, you’re a newbie. I do my research, n00b.

[HelloooClareece]

Some FReepers have lost it over this story. The man is safe and owes NO ONE an explanation of where he was.

Honestly, this thread is a documented list of the sh!t stirrers who have taken over FR. The kind who bite at any hook, line, and sinker MSNBC throws them. Meanwhile, the sane haven’t heard much about this story because they watch news outlets who report on the little things, like Iran, instead of violating a good man’s privacy.

Why should he stand up for conservatives when he gets treated like this for his trouble? Keep it up and we’ll have nobody left to speak for us.

(Come to think of it, after looking at some of the handles on this thread, that may well be the point).
