| along the Appalachain Trail. That explanation of Mark Sanford's
| disappearance has puzzled many folks in South Carolina and across the
| country... Well, The Palmetto Scoop have discovered the answer to all
| the secrecy: the governor may have gone for a naked hike. No, really.
| An Associated Press article from last week heralded Sunday -- Father's
| Day -- as 'Naked Hiking Day' on the Appalachian Trail. Yes, Naked
| Hiking Day."
|
| Freehiking on the Summer Solstice is the most normal thing I have
| heard about this guy....
|
| Turns out he free hiked to a plane and made off to somewhere other

| Yup, and I am sure your party has at least 500 govt. funded
| investigators on the job hoping to pry further into his private
| life... "No matter what the cost".. Remember Joe the Plumber... All he
| did was ask a question.
|
| To be fair and balanced, why didn't you adopt that stance when Clinton
| got a simple hummer in the Rose Garden?
|
| Actually, this transcends "private life." This guy went AWOL without
| leaving anybody in charge. Even the Lieutenant Governor had no idea
| how to handle matters, if there had been a major emergency in SC. To
| make matters worse, the drafters of the SC constitution didn't foresee
| such a bizarre happening and didn't allow for transition of power, if
| the sitting governor just decides to take a hike away from the job.
|
| What the hell was he doing in Argentina, anyway? Any why didn't
| *anybody* (including his wife and family) know where he had gone? Why
| did everybody feel compelled to make up some sort of BS story about
| where he *really* was?
|
| They guy has always been a bit eccentric, but I think he has finally
| crossed the sanity line. He'll get a pass, of course, because he is
| popular down there. Think about it, what would you say if Obama did
| the same thing?

| Because this guy isn't leader of the free world. He is a Governor who
| takes off often and his voters don't seem to care. What is it to you
| if his wife and others choose not to tell you where he was. He often
| travels without security and goes home at night like any other
| "working stiff"... *(Not a Lewinski comment)... He was probably not
| using his positition to push young girls into his crotch...
|
| I don't think we know *whom* he was with or *what* they were doing.
| That is what the conversation is about....

|My point exactly. He was on his time, there should be no
|conversation...

He was *NOT* on his time because he didn't punch the time clock and
leave in an orderly fashion, he left a headless government.

He was out screwing his Argentinean mistress (or master, who knows?)
while the 4.5M citizens of SC were left with nobody at the helm of
state government.

His sexual peccadilloes are between him and his wife. *His mistake was
abandoning his responsibilities as a public servant... even to the
extent of leaving the country.
