Mark Sanford See Mistress On Taxpayer's Dime?

What interesting times we live in!
First, Mark Sanford,Governor from South Carolina, tried to reject the stimulis money that the feds were offering the state. The South Carolina Supreme Court said that the state had to take the cash. Now we hear that Governor Sanford has a mistress down in South America and that it is possible that the man used some of the stimulis money to go and visit his slut down south!
Now, it seems that there has been talk of impeachment in the South Carolina state capitol!

The governor’s trip – taken together with the bitter intraparty battles over the budget in South Carolina and Sanford’s profile as a potential GOP presidential contender – is raising questions about whether he committed “serious misconduct” as chief executive, which is an impeachable offense under South Carolina’s constitution.

Complaints are that the governor turned off his cellphone without making plans for succession and that he apparently misled his staff about his whereabouts. According to his office, he had told them he was going hiking on the Appalachian Trail and instead traveled to Argentina, where he’s said to have taken quiet drives along the beach.

This man was considered an actual contender for the Republican Presidency in 2012? Sure, right up there with Sarah Palin, right?
