Ron Paul’s legislative history is a lesson in principled failure. Among the bills he has co-sponsored: ending U.S. cooperation with the United Nations, a repeal of antitrust law “to restore the inherent benefits of the market economy,” and stripping the government of the right to set a minimum wage. Just last week, he again introduced a bill “to repeal the Gun-Free School Zones Act of 1990,” which would presumably make schools less safe but which would reinforce our right to bear arms. For Paul, ideology almost always trumps politics.
In general I’d say that Sanford should just stick it out as Governor of South Carolina. He’s bored or hates his wife or maybe he’s just an asshole and wants some on the side. No matter what, I don’t really give a rats ass that he cheated on his wife… none of my business. Take a good look around at the people in your life. Family members and co-workers and acquaintances. Odds are there are a few in the bunch who have cheated on their spouse and lied about it. Goodness knows that I know several. It may not be right, and perhaps they shouldn’t have gotten in the mess… but it isn’t my business.
The fact that Gov. Sanford decided to nab him some spicy Argentina doesn’t bother me in the least. Instead, my beef with the good Governor is that he was doing the exact same thing he general rails on. He is one of your run of the mill modern day conservatives who seems to think that Gay Marriage is the biggest sin going and votes for the impeachment of a President who got a tickle and lied about it. A “family values” righteousness slinger who can’t keep his pig in the pen.
Go to hell Mr. Sanford. Or to The Castro… whichever you think is worse.

Two, mutual feelings …. You have a particular grace and calm that I adore. You have a level of sophistication that so fitting with your beauty. I could digress and say that you have the ability to give magnificent gentle kisses, or that I love your tan lines or that I love the curve of your hips, the erotic beauty of you holding yourself (or two magnificent parts of yourself) in the faded glow of the night’s light - but hey, that would be going into sexual details …
Why are you picking on the Post Office? For 44 cents, someone comes to your house, picks up some piece of crap you wrote, and takes it to Wyoming on a plane!
