of course, plus he would have committed fraud to get to argentina..used taxpayer funds..film in and put it on you tube and then tried to extort argentina gov't in a corn trade deal

Don't know how he funded the flight to Argentina, but he used a SLED SUV to get to the airport -- minus any SLED agents. Actually, one SUV was found at the Columbia, SC airport and there was another waiting for him when he landed at ATL. Love to know how the second one got there.

Well at long-last we have a woman who is "not" standing on the stage while "he" confesses his sins.

Kinda makes the Hillary Club look lame no?

Well as usual I will be consistent and say the guy needs to "step down".

Wonder how many supporters of Clintons who supported him staying in office (after his affairs and lying under oath)...... will also be consistent and claim this GOV. should retain his office?

[Hilarious Clinton 452]

NBD. If Clinton can get a BJ in the Oval office the Governor can get some strange in Argentina.

Neither bother me.

on the bright side, at least it was with a chick.

WASHINGTON (CNN) — Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour has assumed the chairmanship of the Republican Governors Association, CNN has learned.

Barbour immediately takes over as head of the national Republican campaign organization following South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford’s announcement he was leaving the post. Sanford acknowledged Wednesday that he had an extramarital affair with a woman in Argentina.

“The news revealed today hurts all of us who have gotten to know Governor Sanford over the years and so it is with regret that the RGA accepted Governor Sanford’s resignation as chairman,” Barbour said in a statement obtained by CNN that will be distributed Wednesday afternoon. “While this news is deeply disappointing, I also know it’s important to remain focused on the future and Governor Sanford’s resignation allows him and us to do just that.

Barbour added: “The RGA has an important task over the next two years. I am committed to seeing it through and confident we will succeed.”

Nick Ayers, the RGA’s executive director, expressed disappointment about Sanford’s revelation.

“While I am personally disappointed in today’s revelation, I also know that it’s important for both Governor Sanford and the RGA to move forward as quickly as possible,” Ayers said in the forthcoming statement. “Therefore we accepted his resignation this afternoon.

“However, the RGA is fortunate that Governor Haley Barbour was in line to become RGA Chairman, a position he assumed today. As a former RNC chairman and one of the best governors in the country, no one is better positioned to takeover as RGA chairman than Governor Barbour.”

There are emails! "I could digress and say that you have the ability to give magnificent gentle kisses, or that I love your tan lines or that I love the curve of your hips, the erotic beauty of you holding yourself (or two magnificent parts of yourself) in the faded glow of the night's light..."

This adds an interesting twist to it...

A reader points out that adultery is a crime in South Carolina.

The technical definition:

"Adultery" is the living together and carnal intercourse with each other or habitual carnal intercourse with each other without living together of a man and woman when either is lawfully married to some other person.

Of course, "fornication" is also on the books down there, so I'm not sure it's going to be one for the prosecutors.

and this...

Setting a land-speed record, the Family Research Council dropped Sanford very quickly from its big upcoming religious-right event.

See...he did have to go off and write something.

wow, i always heard those argentina girls was hot..but to fly 8 hrs,.divorced soon...and kicked out of govenor soon (in a non illinois state)..they must be lined with gold

right because if he was from IL this would not even be news

Absolutely it would be news here

We would marvel that a Governor is so forthright and honest as to only defraud us for a measly plane ticket to Argentina, we expect our corrupt officials to play at a much higher level!

Hey, Illinois is the big leagues of slimbag politicians, SC is just minor farm club stuff.

Well at long-last we have a woman who is "not" standing on the stage while "he" confesses his sins.

I have no problem with his staying in office. If the voters of South Carolina will have him, they're welcome to him.

Seriously -- if he's a competent administrator who's getting sh*t done, who gives a ** who he boffs?

:o :o :o

he "developed a relationship with a friend in argentina" and was "unfaithful to his wife"

He was getting some booty

Unbelievable. A Governor actually worse than Blagojevich.. I'm picturing this guy lying in bed saying "no, no I really have to go....ah, screw it", like some college kids on a weekend get away to Tiajuana. "I'll just call in sick tomorrow".

And apparently she isn't a working girl either.

It seems strange - for a grown man to up and ditch his career responsibilities just so he could nail some bint.
