I'm going to skip all the rest.. but here's what caught my attention, and made me realize he really is off...


About an hour after Jenny Sanford talked of her pain and feelings of betrayal, her husband brushed aside any suggestion he might immediately resign, citing the Bible and the story of King David — who continued to lead after sleeping with another man's wife, Bathsheba, having the husband slain, then marrying the widow.

"What I find interesting is the story of David, and the way in which he fell mightily — fell in very, very significant ways, but then picked up the pieces and built from there,"


Really?

Sanford backs out of promise to release records

1 hour ago


COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford has backed out of a promise to release personal financial records proving he did not use state money for trips to see his mistress.


A day after Sanford declared in an emotional Associated Press interview that his mistress is his soul mate, spokesman Joel Sawyer says the governor does not want to discuss personal matters in the media anymore. The state is investigating Sanford's travel to see the Argentine woman the governor identified as his lover.


Sanford agreed this week to provide the AP with proof of his payment for trips to New York and Argentina to see her.


His staff first said the records might be made available Tuesday, and then the governor's spokesman said Wednesday Sanford would not release them.

When he first came across that 'soul mate', he should have stayed away from her.

It will be interesting to see if his state agrees with his plan of remaining their governor, and how the investigation into his travel expenses goes.
