One example:

From Gov. Sanford,
Date: Thursday, July 10, 2008, 12:24 a.m.

“One, tomorrow leave at 5 a.m. for New York and meetings. Will think about you on its streets and wish I was going to be there later in the month when you are there. Tomorrow night back to Philadelphia for the start of the National Governor's Conference through the weekend. Back to Columbia for Tuesday and then on Wednesday, as I think I had told you, taking the family to China, Tibet, Nepal, India, Thailand and then back through Hong Kong on world wind tour. Few days home then to Bahamas for 5 days on a friend’s boat for the last break of the summer. The following weekend have been asked to spend it out in Aspen, Colorado with McCain - which has kicked up the whole VP talk all over again in the press back home ...

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 ...

Three and finally, while all the things above are all too true - at the same time we are in a hopelessly - or as you put it impossible - or how about combine and simply say hopelessly impossible situation of love. How in the world this lightening strike snuck up on us I am still not quite sure. As I have said to you before I certainly had a special feeling about you from the first time we met, but these feelings were contained and I genuinely enjoyed our special friendship and the comparing of all too many personal notes ...

Lastly I also suspect I feel a little vulnerable because this is ground I have never certainly never covered before - so if you have pearls of wisdom on how we figure all this out please let me know... In the meantime please sleep soundly knowing that despite the best efforts of my head my heart cries out for you, your voice, your body, the touch of your lips, the touch of your finger tips and an even deeper connection to your soul.”

Yup, sounds like a guy totally dedicated to the sanctity of his (and her) marriage.

1. Toast

[Cha]

17. Stick a pacifier in him..

he's done.

[Thrill]

2. So this is what conservative family values look like? Who knew?

[Clio the Leo]

3. thank you, I'd been looking for this.....

.. I am now going to go read them on my iphone at church before class starts. (ha ha, tacky tacky!)

[mediaman007]

4. I'm guessing he didn't major in English:

"... on world wind tour."

I'm thinking that the term is "whirlwind tour." But then he was writing to a South American, so I guess he figured it was ok.

[chaplainM]

8. We need to defend English from the Defenders of Marriage

Adultery is despicable. Hypocrisy even more so. But, for the love of Christ, piling bad grammar atop it all is an abomination.

[PopSixSquish]

20. ROTHFLAMFAO!!!!

Comment of the damn day my fellow DUer, comment of the damn day...

[lunatica]

13. spell check gave the words a pass! Hahahaha!

It's so easy to tell when someone has used spell check. The only words misspelled are those that are spelled correctly only they're for another word.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

5. Maria, Maria, Maria...

Aw.. how tender....

You're toast...

The most beautiful sound I ever heard

All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word

Maria

I just met a girl named Maria
And suddenly that name
Will never be the same
To me

Maria
I just kissed a girl named Maria
And suddenly I found
How wonderful a sound
Can be

Maria
Say it loud and there's music playing
Say it soft and it's almost like praying

Maria
I'll never stop saying
Maria
Maria, Maria...

Maria
Say it loud and there's music playing
Say it soft and it's almost like praying
Maria
I'll never stop saying

Maria
The most beautiful sound I ever heard
Maria

11. Talk about karma...

[Cha]

18. That's what I'm

sayin'..remembering all the hypocricy he's been laying the admin.

[Vidar]

24. Once upon a time a wonderful SNL sketch featuring Garrett Morris in

a tutu ruined Swan Lake for me. Can't you leave West Side Story alone? Just kidding.

[scheming daemons]

6. "World Wind Tour"??? It's WHIRL wind tour, you redneck ignoramous

Another Bush clone...

[Purrfessor]

22. C'mon, give the guy a break...lightening scrambles the mind...

and everybody knows that the first casualty of a lightening strike is one's ability to use good grammar.

[lisa58]

7. okay...guys out there in DU land....how...

...do you watch a woman give birth to four children and allow these thoughts in....and if you do allow these thoughts in.....how do you speak them?

I believe in truth before I believe in country, party, religion, etc., etc., but because I believe in truth first - HOW? does it get to this point - did he get married and have a family because he thought it was the RIGHT thing to do? Was he never in love with his wife?

These are the questions I'm asking...

WTF?

[graywarrior]

10. I'm asking who the fuck he thought he was that he'd never be found out.

Talk about thinking with your other head.

[lisa58]

12. Okay - you bring up my next question....

...do they think they won't be found out because they have so much authority and have so much protection, or,

do they know other people in their position that do the exact same thing they do and get away with it?

[graywarrior]

14. When they're thinking with their other head, they only understand one thing R-E-L-I-E-F

Consequences mean nothing when you have a full wad.

[Oregone]

9. Why didn't these come out earlier?

[lunatica]

15. kinda explains why his wife doesn't much give a fuck where he went

I wonder if she's enjoying this? Will he beg her to stand by him while he confesses his sins so he can get a standing ovation from the Republican state legislators? Will he just go back to championing family values like nothing happened.

Yes. I think he will by golly!

[Cha]

16. Did the freakin' corporatemediawhores know

about this when they were busy sayin' what "a man he is"?

These emails(how do they catch these anyway?) on the front page of The State in South Carolina doesn't seem like the cover up is doing any good.

[lindisfarne]

19. Someone was saving them to kill him politically (or blackmail), Except he did it first. n/t

[Raster]

21. How do you solve a problem like Maria?

Somebody had to.:kick:Rethuglican family values!

[ChimpersMcSmirkers]

23. "My My. I do believe I'm getting the vapors".

[Jennicut]

25. puke worthy and utterly hilarious at the same time
