You got that right DakotaRed!

There are plenty of quitters here to anxious to put down a (R).
It’s a given that we hate it when a (R) does something bad but left will take care of that. We don’t need anymore whining. IMO

Let's sit back and watch the bias from State Media!

Remember how they treated the John Edwards affair and his reported bastard child?

Until Barney Frank, the Kennedy’s, Edward and the rest are held accoutnable, who cares?

If you want to put Sanford in the same category as Frank, Bill Clinton, Ted Kennedy, and John Edwards then I won't disagree.

Perceived Puritan ethic?

Really?

So, the idea that this clown is banging around with his mistress, in a foriegn country, essentially AWOL, is just fine and frigging dandy to you because he’s a Republican?

Did you know, really know not just speculate, that he was having an affair when some of us were trying to stop his crucifixion by sleazy operatives at FR before proven guilty?

Don’t cry for me, Argentina
The truth is, I never left you
All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don’t keep your distance

No this is actually good, an early cull of the weak reeds. Imagine a primary campaign going into super tuesday where Ensign and this guy were the leading contenders...

It wasn’t a gay affair so I still support Sanford
He should stay in office

He was studying the tango down in Argentina

Virtue isn’t worth throwing overboard, unless you want to be ruled by even more scum than we are now.
