Confession time He wasn't hiking the Appalachian Trail with a bunch of naked people on the summer solstice; he didn't get abducted by aliens; he was simply committing adultery.

This post was deleted for the following reason: I'd like to apologize to my wife, our non-existent children, the people of the great state of Oregon, my two cats, all of the Matthew Haugheys of the world, and the self—indeed, the biggest self of self—for all the hurt I have caused by pointing to the open thread. -- cortex



 
Pictures or it didn't happen!

Between this and John Ensign, it's been a banner time for Republican adultery.

Guess who's not going to be President in 2012? Oh yeah, neither one of those guys.

American mistresses aren't good enough for him?

I was listening to NPR, I guess it was yesterday, when they reported that he'd gone off to hike the Appalachian Trail. My first thought was, "yeah, and why don't you just tell everybody you killed a bear with your teeth while you're at it?"

Already covered in the still-going Runaway Gov thread.

Flagged as a double post.

I dunno, ducking out on his wife and 4 kids for a week, incommunicado with his staff, flying off to Argentina, his whereabouts a mystery to an increasingly intrigued media, I think he was complexly committing adultery.

I expect this thread to go hiking the Appalachian Trail shortly, with the other thread refusing to confirm or deny details of its whereabouts.

Sanford: "It began very innocently, as I suspect these things do, in just a casual e-mail back and forth."

Ah, no; the bad part began when you started having sex with a woman who wasn't your wife.

Maybe he was abducted by aliens and is using adultery as a cover. It's possible.
