Gov. Sanford is a naked hiker

http://features.csmonitor.com/politics/2009/06/23/sanford-disappears-to-hike-appalachian-trail-on-naked-hiking-day/

They changed the article to say that it was a coincidence that he was hiking the AT on naked hiking day....

Coincidence or not? Its funnay.....

edit: I'm merely posting for comedic value. I won't pass judgment on this guy here, even though I lived in his state and have some pretty strong opinions....

Shouldn't your thread title be : "Gov. Sanford may be a naked hiker"

Ehh? Ehh?

I think its funnier that they, the CSmonitor, one of the best and impartial news sources left, came out with such a wild claim.

I also think that they are pretty stand up for nearly immediately correcting the article.

I also don't know why but the image of sanford hiking naked is also funny.

There's a lot of places you don't want poison ivy.

I'm just saying....

Any man or woman that will stroll up the Trail in the buff during the Summer solstice has my vote.

We need more polititians like that.

Just read the AP.

he was actually in Argentina.

Hey, Appalachian , Argentina.

It's easy to get those two confused.

He still may have been hiking naked...

So far, I like the sound of this guy.

Ignorant, what's your beef?

We know he doesn't just stand around with his hands in his pockets.

Ummm, breaking news on TV as of 2:30 PM 6/24: it appears he was in Argentina schtupping someone other than his wife. He better not go to Sullivan's Island anytime soon.

given recent revelations, this does appear to be the case, with a hot argentinian woman.

Nice!

man, he was just using her to spot him in his mountain climbing adventures...

Ahhh yeah.. I won't talk about that here cause I don't want this to be a political thread.

wow that argentina thing is a curve ball...

I just think this is funny...

now the sad kind of funny.

very sad kind of funny. poor wife and kids...

so... here's something intersting I read on a blog..

Governor Sanford is in the SC Air National Guard. Adultery is punishable offense under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Will he be held accountable?

'Sanford lied, no one died'.

yeah... I'm not advocating throwing him out for this.

I thought the naked hiker thing was pretty out there and therfore funny. However, The truth is usually stranger than fiction and in this case sadder. I'm sorry for his family.

Idiot threw away his marriage, kids, professional life, future, for a piece of ass. I know it happens all the time, but, come on, thinking with the little head ALWAYS gets you in trouble. Apparantly his wife knew about it and still lied for him. In certain circles there would be homicide involved. Yeah, I'm sensitive about this crap.

billing yourself as a family values super conservative and then lying about some pooty on the side is incongruous. He'll pay a price for sure.

More comedy..... looks like fox news messed up.. Spot the error.

Their beach house was put on the market months ago. I'm betting this is why.

I believe the wife is well connected.

D? No, Democrats don't do that stuff. Only good thing was that it was an adult female. Incongrous? No, hypocrite. Arghh.

I don't care about the party affiliation. Just once I want to see the wife forgo the powder-blue outfit and standing resolutely by his side in favor of kicking him square in the nuts, right there on national TV.

That would be awesome.

She is an heir to the Skil power tools fortune. I hope the sideline nookie was worth it.

Yeah, that would be good. If I were that foolish, I wouldn't expect anyone to stand by me. I'd definitely expect several swift kicks in the nuts.

You can't make this stuff up; it has to actually happen...

Mighty weird story.

If someone cheats, and you take them back, then the next time they cheat, it is YOUR FAULT. Takeing them back is telling them what they did is ok.

She should kick him in the balls. Otherwise, she is supporting adultry.
