Mike Pound: Semi-wilderness no match for the news
But no one told me about Mark Sanford. I knew that he had wandered off, of course, but I didn’t know until I got back home that he had wandered off to Argentina to hang out with his mistress. Who does this guy think he is? John Edwards? What is it about the Carolinas? I guess it must be the accent.
To be honest, I had never heard of Mark Sanford until he got famous for refusing to take any federal stimulus money. Turns out he had his own stimulus plan (rim shot).
Seriously, what was he thinking? Maybe this: “I’m the governor of South Carolina. Nobody will miss me for a few days.”
I’m not the governor of South Carolina, and I guarantee you that I couldn’t wander off to Argentina without somebody noticing. They might not care, but they would notice.
I wonder: When Mark Sanford was in Argentina, did he hear about Michael Jackson?
I bet he did.
He probably has one of those Swiss Army knife cell phones.
