Really? The new GOP darling?

Sanford falls...and another Southern governor rises? Seriously? Was Bob Schieffer serious?

Mississippi's Haley Barbour on:
Governor Sanford?
-shouldn't resign...
-personal issue... "I don't talk about people's personal problems: I don't think it's polite." Yeah, right. I call bullshit on this quote!!!

Energy?
-Drill in Alaska
-Drill offshore
No mention of new technologies? A proud announcement of a new coal plan in Mississippi?

Barbour poo-pooed it - but, didn't say no. What a scary thought. Another fat, white, white-haired Southern, pudding-mouthed blowhard coming to the national fore. If, in fact, he becomes the darling - it just shows the fundamental (tee hee) lack of forward thinking in the GOP.

Left or right - I'm just sick of partisan politics and the true lack of honest concern for the nation. If Sanford were a lefty - the right would decry his lack of moral turpitude ...he's a churchy, right-winger - so the left is quick to point out his [truly] heroic hypocrisy... ACK! Of course - the real issue is his dereliction of duty to the people of South Carolina.

Exhausting.

Did anybody else think..."Appalachian Trail? OH, sure, of course, just what any normal American might be found doing after leaving no word at all..."
I was driving in my car listening to the radio when the story came on and I immediately thought, "That's a guy who's doing something he shouldn't be doing right now". Bi#ch, please. The Republican party seems to be actively crumbling under its own hypocrisy. Will the religious right pull away? This might get really interesting!
