Governor Sanford confirms that he will not be a candidate for President
http://www.upstatetoday.com/news/2009/sep/23/sanford-says-he-still-has-work-do/

“I think if anything is off the table, it’s that I’m not running for president,” Sanford said. “It’s 100 percent believable now, which is the opportunity part… We may well be able to have a conversation on some issues rather than where Mark will climb the next political ladder.”



It really reads like a Twilight Zone Episode. It does illustrate how really dellusional these people are. For them reality is only a theoretical construct that can only be confirmed if they can find a biblical verse that makes it so.

2. That is the opportunity side


Now that you know that it is not satire you may spend the rest of the day wondering how really detached from reality a Governor of a state can be.


Everytime God closes a door Jesus opens a window (presumably the Holy Spirit is cleaning the chimney.) It is just one really busy Holy Trinity.

35. The Republican Party killed satire...
Let's face it. You come up with what you think is the most insanely funny incidence of hypocrisy, one that nobody in their right mind would confuse with reality, and it turns out the Republicans have already been there.

Exhibit A: The Will Ferrell video. It's the Republican Agenda!

3. “I think if anything is off the table, it’s that I’m not running for president,”
So Sanford *NOT* running for President is off the table. Guess that means he is running for President. Somebody should let Michael Steele know.

20. Yes, we taped it when it first aired. Not the best quality though.
It was my sons (and my) favorite show.
