Dem AND GOP govs can both eff themselves

I am more than tired of both parties national governors’ associations “lets win the second quarter financial race” e-mails for an election 18 months away.

Keep it up, both of you; maybe some more Americans will join the third-party revolution. Better than that, maybe more of them will join the left-liberal third party revolution, which, unlike the Libertarians, wants to have more public financing of political campaigns and tighter limits on private contributions.

I voted Green in the past, and will vote Green, Socialist or similar any opportunity I have in the foreseeable future.

SC GOP Sunday barbecue menu – Mark Sanford

First, we have scorned wife, Jenny Sanford, emotionally as well as sexually betrayed by e-mails to Maria.

You have a particular grace and calm that I adore. You have a level of sophistication that so fitting with your beauty.

And now, Jenny Sanford, the theoretically unsophisticated hausfrau has her own statement out, hurts and all:

We reached a point where I felt it was important to look my sons in the eyes and maintain my dignity, self-respect, and my basic sense of right and wrong. I therefore asked my husband to leave two weeks ago.

The hurt, even scorned, Southern woman?

Strike one with the chivalrous South Carolina GOP.

Second, Sanford knew this woman at least eight years, and went to Argentina before on the state taxpayer dime.

Strike two with the fiscally conservative South Carolina GOP.

And, the hypocrisy of a Father’s Day weekend tryst has even the one of the conservative bloviosphere witches aghast, calling you a bastard.

Strike three with the Southern proprieties South Carolina GOP.

The South Carolina GOP is having a barbecue this weekend, and Gov. Sanford is the main course, I guarohntee.

Update: Sanford apparently originally had a two-week rendezvous planned with the now-identified Maria Belen Chapur. And, this was after his wife insisted on their trial separation.

Boy, talk about pouring gasoline on yourself. Strike four. I do not care how much you hate your Light Gov, you had better step down now.

GOP govs OK with corruption?

At the annual meeting of the Republican Governors Association, when challenged by Gov. Dave Heineman of Nebraska to make a pledge calling on convicted felon, Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens, to resign immediately, the silence was deafening from Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, who first said the GOP needs to got honest about ethics, and all his fellow Republican governors.
