Mark Sanford: A Complete and Utter Tool

The mystery surrounding missing South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford has been solved. He was in Argentina visiting his mistress.

It's one thing to cheat on your wife. Its one thing to not even spend Father's Day with your four children because you're too busy getting some on the side. It's an entirely different thing to completely shirk your duties as governor—possibly putting lives at risk if a state emergency broke out and there wasn't a governor around to handle the situation.

Not only is Sanford’s behavior a betrayal to his family, but also suggests underlying psychological issues by putting his entire career in jeopardy neglecting his duties as governor for an affair.

Sanford’s incredibly selfish act not only negatively impacts his family, his constituents, but also the conservative movement.

Sanford resigned from the Republican Governors Association. He should resign the governorship as quickly as possible to minimize the damage to his party and the State of South Carolina.
