Politicians...slime..


Ok – I’m into politics and always have been but let me tell you what they disgust me at the same time.

Are they all just selfish, arrogant a-holes? The latest saga… South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford.

I’ve actually met the man believe it or not – again, I’m a TV producer and he was on the show I produce for PBS a year ago and remember NC and SC are one ‘region’..the Carolinas. Anyhoo -he was nice enough….BUT.. what he’s done lately is just downright ridiculous!

5 days ago he ditches his security detail and leaves town during Father’s Day weekend not telling anyone – not even his wife where he’s going?
He’s the father of 4-kids for goodness sake! I understand he was under a lot of pressure in recent weeks because of the state being nearly bankrupt and stimulus money, etc… but he’s the flippin Governor!! That’s what you get paid to deal with!

After several days of no one knowing where he was his staffed said he was hiking the Appalachian Trail until today it was he was caught getting off a flight and it was discovered he had been in Argentina vacationing and on a cruise? He claims by himself?

My opinion….? With some woman…

In my book he joins the slimeballs that are: John Edwards, Elliot Spitzer, John Ensign, and yes.. Bill Clinton too! And the list could go on………….

That’s my rant for today..

The latest on him? The guy who was taking the fall for Johnny boy and claiming to be the father of Rielle Hunter's baby is now DONE lieing. He's written a book telling the truth about Edwards and it will be on bookshelves soon.

the latest on this slimeball? He's out actually making the media rounds telling how he's 'recovered'. His wife has gone back to work and is now supporting the family. Good thing he married a high-powered attorney who was raised in NC!

Go Dee! I have a love hate relationship with politics as well. Why are they so arrogant - their arrogance forces them to make stupid decisions! Ugh ... so much for coservative family values some of them supposedly stand for. In total agreement with your assessment of Bill Clinton too ... how he got away with all the stuff he did and is now making millions for speaking engagements - sickening!
