"I Wanted To Do Something Exotic"

"I wanted to do something exotic", says S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford. [It's winter in Argentina. Current temperature in Buenos Aires is 45 degrees.]

As if hiking the Appalachian Trail was not exotic enough, as reported by his staff when it as found out the Governor had been missing for days, turns out he was on a secret seven-day visit to Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Seeing that his wife claims she did not know where he was, why would he go to South America, in total secret?

"Lies. Lies. Lies. That's all we get from his staff. That's all we get from his people. That's all we get from him," said state Sen. Jake Knotts, R-West Columbia. "Why all the big cover-up?"

All the posturing in the previous weeks, trying not to accept stimulus money, positioning himself as a Presidential candidate, all gone. But conservatives have a weakness for the lying secretive type.
