Gov. Mark Sanford today revealed the newest GOP strategy for recruiting young males to the party, join the party, get elected, travel the world, cheat on your wife. The GOP anticipates a %7 increase in party affiliation.

Maybe we should just neuter these folks before we let them run for public office. Chinese emperors used eunuchs to run their governments for millennia.

Someone please get these whining wife cheating douchebag congressmen (and other public figures) out of our face, I don't think I can stand the childishness of it any more.

You don't know the half of it, Bob - we have also cut a deal with Italian PM Berlusconi to have his party associates come over and teach European psephological methods to our young recruits. Btw, our state legislature in Albany, New York, is the first such large-scale experiment, Sanford was a small test case.

Try to sell that one to Elizabeth Edwards - and duck quickly, before she has time to respond suitably to your commentary Smile

Dys - did you look up my previous link? I'm not going to post electoral info on Mr Berlusconi (this is a family-friendly website), but at this point we don't worry about North Carolina all that much; consider what else has been going on with our politicians in recent months:
Quote:
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said in an interview on '60 Minutes' on Sunday that, if the Constitution allowed it, he would like to run for president. Yeah. Yeah. There's a switch, a Republican being stopped by the Constitution, when does that ever happen?

Hey, bad news for Senator Larry Craig. You know, America's favorite restroom enthusiast? You know Larry Craig. The court has refused his request to change his guilty plea. Remember, he was charged with soliciting sex from an undercover police officer in an airport men's room. He wanted the plea changed from 'guilty' to just 'jiggling the wrong handle.'

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush said in a recent interview that Republicans 'cannot be the old, white guy party.' That's what he said. I believe he made this statement at a national shuffleboard convention in Boca Raton, Florida.

In an editorial this week, Mitt Romney said we should let Detroit go bankrupt. He feels the car industry is not worth bailing out. The only industries that Romney would bail out? The tanning booth industry, tooth polishing industry and hair dye industry. Everything else can pretty much go to hell.

Dys - I'm off to Dubai for a while, so if you come up with queries on mathematics, economics, or ancient Greek, just send me e-mail; and most-important-of-all, keep well. Whatever you do don't die, I will never forgive you.

they do that because they know the majority of morons who depend on fox for their news will take it at face value and believe as though it were gospel... they will argue, with total sincerity and belief, that Sanford is a democrat. Assholes. Laughing

Why should this story matter?

Adultery has absolutely nothing to do with your ability to govern.

However, hypocrisy has a great deal to do with the Republican party.
