Mark Sanford Will Ask Every Single Person In America's Forgiveness For His Affair
Holy crap the Mark Sanford press conference is TOTALLY INSANE! More soon!
UPDATE: Okay, so, the live press conference is over. We'll swap in video once they get it up, but basically Sanford came out, apologized to every person he's ever met, living or dead, admitted that the Appalachian Trail "ain't where I went," apologized some more, mumbled on about God's law for a while, copped to having an affair with a "dear, dear friend from Argentina," apologized again, answered a couple of questions, but refused to say whether he'd resign as governor. This was one of the weirdest press conferences I've ever seen, including Budd Dwyer's. If you missed it, you'll want to watch the video when it's available… it is astounding. Also, if you had any doubt that God loves Barack Obama, you can set it aside, because he SO CLEARLY DOES.
I'll admit I was reacting somewhat positively to him until he WOULDN'T STOP TALKING.
I am so glad to see his wife is NOT standing by her man at the news conference. Fascinating stuff. I've never actually watched a train wreck live on TV before.
Yes. I still can't respect her, because you know…she saw Mark Sanford and thought I MUST HAVE HIM, but still, she done good today.
She had four boys, and he still wandered off? I guess I won't bother to register whatwouldtheoppositeofanneboleynbelike.com
(sorry, GoDaddy)
Between this guy, Blago and the NY state senate, politics has been downright crazy lately.
Don't forget Spitzer, without whom the NY senate stuff likely wouldn't be happening. (Plus, Vitter, and Ensign, and …) And of course McGreevey, whose outrageousness makes up for the fact that it's been a while.
Can Minnesota senators get some love?
Don't forget Edwards and his love child
As a heterosexual male I do not find this story surprising.
Did he say he met the woman on the internet?
I predict it will come out that he did it for the lulz. (sorry, the Budd Dwyer reset made me do it)
Another governor asplosion. Must be Wednesday!
This will do wonders for the splintering relationship between Republicans and Latinos!
Here's the full video of the press conference in case you missed it:
What kind of governor has to go all the way to Argentina to get some?
He should have worn the Bruno nude suit.

I can see where having THAT guy as your governor would make a Carolinian wish their governor was a little more Italian.
I continue to be astounded that Republicans have dicks.
So many are dicks it's hard to keep track.
I am sitting here literally cramming Doritos into my mouth and chortling as I watch this. I am a terrible monster and representative of more or less everything wrong with humankind.
Easy on the Doritos, the kid in the background at 00:15 or so who's cheeks are eating his eyes is a warning.
When Mark Sanford says he wants to get the pork out of South Carolina, what he MEANS is that he…wants to pork someone in Buenos Aires.
Watching this on Fox is the only way to go. But: mark: 3:36;45 p.m., EDT, Shep Smith found his opening and began blaming the Democrats for this.
Watch this. It's much more pleasant.

You can't find a decent empanada in Florence or Greenville, I know this much.
A good argentine empanada could lead a good man astray. No offense to Ruben's or any other place in NYC, but I've had homemade ones here in Spain from Argentine friends. Vos no supiera…..
May favorite part of that video clip is the woman standing behind him, just to the left. When he reveals he's had an affair, she flashes a great big smile. And her smile becomes even bigger as he continues to talk about it.
It's like her reaction is: "Yay! He had an affair! This makes me so happy! YAY!!"
I think that's Silda Wall Spitzer..
Yes! Who are the people standing there? College students on a field trip?
Another one bites the dust.
Actually, he looks more like a nibbler…
I think he apologized to "people of faith."
For crying out loud, CNN, no one wants to watch that kid and his viola again right now.
BWAHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
Holy CRAP, this is astoundingly funny (coulda y'all tell I liked it?)
Somewhere Jim Gibbons laaaughs. Probably in Nevada.
Please tell me that I never have to hear Cafferty utter the phrase "it was nude hiking day on the Appalachian Trail last Sunday" again.
Is Demond Wilson really his child?
This is the big one, Elizabeth
Isn't this the plot of the new Facebook meeting?
Oops! Not meeting–movie.
I'd do his God.
"one question at a time".. I think that's the sixth commandment, right?
