Stupid Republican idea of the day

That was one long-assed hike!

Just an update. The South Carolina governor, spotted at the airport, told reporters he wanted something exotic so he went to Argentina.

Another entry for today. Geez, it isn’t even noon yet.

I especially like this bit from his rambling press conference:

Yet another “Christian” who’d spit on Christ if he had half the chance, but who’s more than willing to go all Christiany when he needs to exploit religion.

Another one bites the dust for 2012. We may get Palin/Bachmann yet!

They got nooky in Argentina. Ain’t none of that in South Carolina.

They do, but they’re not “exotic” enough.

Well done, Fox. Fucksacks. (“Mark Sanford (D)”)

That’s “fair and balanced” for ya. Bet they don’t even apologize.

Every other time this has happened (there have been at least three), they just brush off criticism, citing isolated human error, nothing deliberate. Funny, they never mis-identify Dem miscreants as Republicans.

I suspect Sanford is not well in the head. It’s the only explanation.

Nobody ever has (T) or (F) after their names, and those letters have more border space with R. Also, nobody in the news for a good reason ever has their affiliation changed.

It must happen the other way, right? Right? Somewhere there is a person who is recording when they accidentally call Sully Sullenberger a Democrat, right?

Or is this like how the scanner at the supermarket never gives me an outdated sale price, but will sometimes accidentally overcharge me for a sale item?

Goof. Balls.

Well, he is a Republican… but I’m not sure banging some hot Argentine chick really qualifies as a symptom of a psychological disorder.

You can’t really hold this one against them. They don’t have a graphic for Republicans who have heterosexual affairs.

For some reason, Google Chrome won’t let me post anything. I’m back on IE for a while. Dammit.

Do we know she’s hot?

David Vitter kind of counts, and I think Ensign’s situation was similar to Sanford’s.

Well, he flew 4,740 miles to see her. I’m guessing she’s not a Chewbacca.

(Yes, I looked up the distance from Columbia, SC to Rio :D)

Except that Rio is not in Argentina. :slight_smile:

Anyways, he might not be crazy, as in “why don’t you try this white shirt with very long sleeves for a little while?” crazy, but that was incredibly bizarre.

He left from Atlanta, and went to Buenos Aires. :wink:

It was the actions of a horny teenager who thought dad wouldn’t miss the credit card. I can only imagine how miserable this guy was over his public persona clashing with his private. Looks like his private (as well as his privates) managed to escape captivity, as it were.

But, considering the folks he worked for, fuck 'em.

You know, I just can’t sympathize. He ran for the office of governor, TWICE. He ran for U.S. House of Representatives, THREE TIMES. If you don’t want a public persona, don’t fucking run for public office.

And then don’t spend your political authority attempting to deny other people equal rights because of their sexual behavior, and publicly condemning other people for their sexual behavior, all the while engaging in the same behavior.

Well, he works for the people of South Carolina, many of whom voted for Obama. How about, considering the folks he answered to, who are not the people of South Carolina?

Writes some pretty steamy love-gush, for a Republican. Not Newt Gingrich level hot stuff, nor anything like “Scooter” Libby and the bear necessities. No, he lacks their fervor and urgency, but he compares well with the sex scenes in Bill Buckley’s dime-store James Bond series. Explicit enough, if wordy, but you get the impression he typed fuck scenes with rubber gloves and a surgical mask on…

Still, pretty hot for a tighty-righty, gotta say. Seems they breed pretty much like normal folks. Who knew? And who would have guessed a few hundred gay marriages would destroy so many Republican marriages so quickly! I mean, man, that was* fast*!
