E-mails obtained by The State newspaper in December detailed an affair between Gov. Mark Sanford and Maria, a woman in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
What the fuck The State? Why would you sit on this story? Was it because you enjoyed watching Mark Sanford on Fox News? Or was it because you enjoyed hearing him talk? Or was it because you enjoyed knowing 7,500 teachers were going to get fired by this jackass?
No? Then why the fuck didn’t you come out with these e-mails sooner?
However, attempts to verify the e-mails — from an anonymous source — were fruitless, until Wednesday. Then, acting on another anonymous tip that Sanford would be on a plane returning from Argentina, the paper sent a reporter to Atlanta.
Oh I get it, you couldn’t act on these e-mails because they were from an anonymous source, but you could act on an anonymous tip.
Get the fuck out of here with that stupid shit.
What’s so hard about having a reporter call Mark Sanford’s chief of staff and say, “Yeah Frank, I’ve got a couple of e-mails in my hand between Mark Sanford and some Argentinian woman named Maria, and I’ve got to be honest, they’re a little sexual. What’s your response?”
But no, you had to sit on this fucking story while Mark Sanford talked shit about the stimulus plan. I mean, you couldn’t have posted one e-mail to shut him up? For fuck’s sake it didn’t even have to be a long one. This one would have worked.
From: Mark Sanford
To: Maria

Dearest,
You are glorious and I hope you really understand that. You do not need a therapist to help you figure your place in the world. You are special and unique and fabulous in a whole host of ways that are worth a much longer conversation. To be continued …
Have been having a few email problems as I am getting email through an aircard at the farm, where access to computer world is more than tough. Please let me know if you have gotten my last two eamils (sic) so I know it is working in getting to your part of the world …
Another glorious day outside. Hope you are doing well, and am anxious to hear about your week. Know that I miss you. Unbeleivably (sic) hard to imagine it has been a week. Please also send your mailing address as I want to send you an insignificant something next week when I am back in civilization that I think you might find interesting given our conversation.
Want to write an indepth note with some thoughts on our visit when I know you are getting these emails. Hugs and much love. M
Or you could have posted a little piece of the longer e-mails, something like this:
I better stop now least this really sound like the Thornbirds — wherein I was always upset with Richard Chamberlain for not dropping his ambitions and running into Maggie’s arms. The bottom line is two fold, my heart wants me to get on a plane tonight and to be in your loving arms — my head is saying how do we put the Genie back in the bottle because I sure don’t want to be encumbering you, or your options or your life.
I mean come on, the guy is talking about the fucking Thorn Birds for Christ’s sake. You should have nailed this guy. You should have shown the world how big a pussy he was. But you did nothing except sit there with his dick in your mouth while he tried to ruin this state.
Goddammit, I can’t wait until the newspaper industry fails.

Yeah, it really sucks that these people couldn’t have tried to force him to come clean (no pun intended) on this issue much earlier. You’d think 7.500 teachers would be more important that some grandstanding asshole,sermonizing, hypocritical neocon jerkoff. I won’t hold my breath waiting for him to step down as governor either, even though he was one of the loudest voices calling for Clinton to resign over his affair.

PP don’t you think it’s almost a requirement to be either a hoe, crook, or crackpot to hold public office these days..
sad but that’s the news.

Phuck Politics says:
@Zirgar – He isn’t going to step down because South Carolina is a Christian state and they know how to forgive.
Goddammit I need to get out of this fucking state.
@RE Ausetkmt – I think it is a requirement, along with being rich, old, and white.

His emails are painful to read. I don’t really care what Sanford did, but he is the poster boy for the Republican party, and will get ridiculed for being a hypocrite. And the emails, well, they should have remained private. Too bad Sanford was dumb enough to use his work email.

Phuck Politics says:
@Stunatra – Those emails were so corny. I was expecting to read some Dear Penthouse kind of shit. And I don’t think those emails were from his work email. I’m pretty sure they were private. Word on the street is The State got those emails from his wife.
