SANFORD gives Chuck TODD & Hardball pundits bad case of triple-word EWwwness, TMI

Edited on Tue Jun-30-09 05:53 PM by UTUSN

So Chuck is standing in for Tweety, who, he says, "is out of the country, but we don't know,
will give more clues later in the week..." HaHAH.

Then he goes to clips of SANFORD saying his girlfriend was "a soulmate." Then, that he
"crossed lines" with MORE women. But not sexually. Oh, and that despite calling
his girlfriend his soulmate, still, he is "trying to fall back in love with" his wife.

Now from the beginning I said that this wasn't about the affair, it was ALL about his
abandoning his official duties, leaving his jurisdiction unprotected. But now that finally
there have been some editorials deigning to focus on this instead of the sex, well,
my job is done and I can be overwhelmed by his "love" stories.

I also said from the beginning that this dude doesn't belong in bureaucratic pursuits
because he has the soul of a poet or of a sexual adventurer or SOMEthing.

So with today's AP story about his soulmate, crossing lines, etc., Chuck TODD turns to one
of his guests and says to her, "You work at the AP, you were seeing these (love bits) keep
COMING and COMING and COMING..." The woman started to cringe.

But, no, then SHE started doing it, "Uh, yes, it's the story that keeps on giving...
DRIP, DRIP, DRIP..."

Haha, so then they went on and on about it's all being TMI. And the other guest said
it was all TMI, but that this isn't like the other politicians' tawdry sexploits,
that it was "something different, like a love story or something..."

Haha, they were all cringing and yet titillated, but in a different way, like they
SHOULDN'T be titillated, like when reading love POETRY or something....... haHAHAHA

AP Newsbreak: SC gov 'crossed lines' with women

By TAMARA LUSH and EVAN BERLAND, Associated Press Writers Tamara Lush And Evan Berland,
Associated Press Writers � 1 hr 10 mins ago

COLUMBIA, S.C. � South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford declared his Argentine mistress his soul mate
Tuesday but said he is committed to reconciling with his wife in hopes of saving his family
and what is left of his political career.

Sanford, who also admitted meeting his lover more times than he had previously claimed,
told The Associated Press in emotional interviews that he "crossed lines" with a handful
of other women during 20 years of marriage.

But he said he never went as far as he did with Maria Belen Chapur, the woman at the center
of the scandal that has derailed his once-promising political future.

Even with the latest revelations, Sanford maintains he is fit to govern and has no plans
to resign. And he insisted his relationship with Chapur, whom he met at an open air dance spot
in Uruguay eight years ago, was more than just sex.

"This was a whole lot more than a simple affair, this was a love story," Sanford said.
A forbidden one, a tragic one, but a love story at the end of the day." ....
