Brian on Fox and Friends now says the Governor took a Cruise...
This is getting weirder!!

No, I’m laughing that you couldn’t see the writing on the wall like most people who have a reasonable level of intuition about the situation.
You decided to go the “MSM made it all up” tin foil hat direction.
That’s why you’re the joke.
And it’s even funnier because you still don’t get it.
“What is the governors rank in our armed forces?”
Maybe someone can clarify this, but I think he is the Commander in Chief of the state’s National Guard.
Good advice. He seemed like a stand-up guy, but I waited to hear what happened at the presser.
Something sounded fishy to me and I suspected a mistress, but you never know with these things. I also thought he might have gotten some earth-shattering news like a cancer diagnosis.
“Waiting for your apology.”
Please show me the post that I should apologise for.
I was doing that, only I still was having to fend off an angry lynch mob. As I said, he deserved consideration up until his confessional. Believe me, he let me down more than almost anyone else on FR.
check out the big brain on Brett. very prescient comment.
Maybe you all should have waited and listened to xsmommy and me who were trying to tell you and others there was something wrong and it wasn’t the media’s fault. You said we were jumping to fast and maybe some of you should have waited before condemning the media and they were making things up. All we kept saying is that it didn’t make sense and it wasn’t right he went away without anyone knowing because he was the Governor and a Father.
Been around politics for a long time and can feel when something doesn’t add up. This one didn’t add up at all. Wife’s comments pretty much said it all. No Governor just goes away without his wife being able to contact him.
Jiminy Christmas, when it rains, it pours. Gibbons’s ACTIONS publicly and privately were readily apparent. There was nada on Sanford until this current event. BTW, you never did answer my last post to you on Gibbons, so you might start with that. I won’t hold my breath with your answering it.
i won’t even condemn him now, because whether it was because he was up to shenanigans or because he was a political naif, he was clearly not attentive to how it LOOKED to the voting populace, and as a pragmatist, that is not a good thing in a politician. i feel bad for his wife and family and wish that rather than continuing to attack, the ad hominem hurlers here could at least give some of us credit for being just a bit savvier than they were in looking at a politician, conservative or not. far too many clay feet out there to rise up in hysterical defense of someone who laid himself open to suspicion by his own behavior.
“It was pretty obiously a joke. You need thicker skin”
Wasn’t clear to me that it wasn’t one of your fantasies. Thanks for being concerned about my skin.
You were right.
what I saw in his press conference is a man torn and in a lot of pain; he may have ended the affair this weekend, but in his heart I don’t think he ended it, looks to me like he was/is in love with a woman who is not his wife... if this was France or Italy it would be acceptable...here it means his career is over. BTW he was on Hannity last week and pretty much indicated when his term as governor was over he wanted to just fade away. Hannity didn’t act like he believed it, but I think (now) the body language at the time was an unhappy man.
Wrong. You wanted to lynch somebody before you or anyone else on this website knew the facts. That’s what makes people like you really scary.
case of idealists attacking pragmatists for being too dang realistic about the situation. if something doesn’t smell right there is usually something that STINKS in the situation.
I was hoping you'd say that you could find a way to debate without the name calling as it takes away from any credibility that you may have had.
You keep brining up fanatasies about people you don’t know.
I thought you said that was “projection.”
Either way, the guy is a scum bag who pretended to be a conservative but really was just another sleazy politician who repeatedly ran around on his family.
In which you refuted my statement Sanford had ended his career, by supposing he was probably on a trade mission.And generally lambasted other freepers for being able to recognize Sanford had shown poor political judgment .
“IMHO we should not treat him any different than we did Spitzer, McGreevy, Larry Craig or any number of other politicians”
You sent this to me so you appearly think I do, so me what I have posted that you base this on.
Looks like we landed in the middle of a flame war. Last I heard Sanford was going to give a press conference but had pushed it back. FReegards.
