Sanford impeachment hearings begin


Posted: Nov 24, 2009

Mark Sanford is under investigation for breaking ethics laws and now faces an impeachment hearing for leaving the state without anyone to make excutive decisions while with his Argentinian mistress. 

I think one's personal affairs (pun intended) including one's sex life are just that - personal. I do have a problem with him "abandoning" the state for 5 days, being incommunicado, while engaging in that affair, though.

The ethics charges - mostly misuse of funds type stuff - are also worrisome. I vote thumbs down on him.

anyone who would abandon his/her job for five days without contacting anyone before or during. I'm pretty sure most of them would be fired.

I agree with you also about the ethics charges.

Otherwise the whole party is doomed to be a party of ...
