How do the facts not shine a good light on him? Let’s review those facts:
1. Sanford DID tell his staff and family where he was going.
2. Because he was traveling without a security detail, it was in his best interests that no one knew he was gone.
3. His political enemies — Republicans at that — ginned up the media story.
4. When confronted by a pestering media, things went downhill.
5. Again though, at all times there was no doubt that Sanford’s staff and family knew where he was.
WHAT IS THE F-—ING PROBLEM????
Read the AP article and is apparent what is behind this. It talks of Sanford’s hike, Palin’s ethics problems, Perry’s secession comment. The media is tearing down the governors one by one to leave another McCain to challenge Obama. Hey, didn’t hear anything about Tim Pawlenty yet, hmmm wonder why?
Would you please direct me to a report that says his family and staff knew where he was going? Thanks.
These are the facts I’ve seen reported:
1. His staff did not know his whereabouts.
2. His family did not know his whereabouts.
3. There was enough concern that they had to ping his cell phone which directed them to the Atlanta area.
4. His chief of staff got a call from him. Not the other way around. It was then that Sanford was told to get home.
