Profanity. Do you ever have anything of value to add?
CR is a misguided lefty loon, we all know this. But at least he generally engages in the debate.

Misguided? Dude, you're a Jane Fonda liberal.
It doesn't make you a bad person or unAmerican. It just makes you goofy.

Do you ever have anything of value to add? CR is a misguided lefty loon, we all know this. But at least he generally engages in the debate. I suggest that Brother CR uses gutter language and insults rather than engaging in debate. I contribute, in my opinion, much to the site. My recent Cartoon of the Day threads, in particular, are a prime example. I pray you can appreciate my contributions, as well as my efforts to elevate the dialouge. I only seek to spread the truth. Some of you are not yet open to it, but hopefully someday you will be. And I do see some recent small signs of progress with you, Brother Klecko, yesterday's innapropriate picture notwithstanding.

Sanford admits affair, apologizes to family Governor apologizes to wife, sons and friends By GINA SMITH - gnsmith@thestate.com
-- BREAKING: Sanford admits he has been unfaithful to his wife.
Gov. Mark Sanford admitted today that his secret trip to Argentina over Father's Day weekend was to visit a woman he is having an affair with.
"I have developed a relationship with what started as a dear dear friend from Argentina. It began very innocently as I expect many of these things do, just casual email back and forth," Sanford said. "But here recently this last year developed into something much more."
Asked if Sanford was separated from his wife, he said "I don't know how you want to define that. I"m here and she's there. I guess in a formal sense we are not."
Sanford said his wife has known about the affair and they have been working through it for the past five months. "What I did was wrong, period. End of story," Sanford said.
Sanford arrived in the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport this morning, having wrapped up a seven-day visit to Buenos Aires, Argentina, he said then. Sanford said he had not been hiking along the Appalachian Trail, as his staff said in a Tuesday statement to the media.
Sanford's whereabouts had been unknown since Thursday, and the mystery surrounding his absence fueled speculation about where he had been and who's in charge in his absence. His emergence Wednesday ended the mystery.
Sanford, in an interview with The State, said he decided at the last minute to go to the South American country to recharge after a difficult legislative session in which he battled with lawmakers over how to spend federal stimulus money.
Sanford said he had considered hiking on the Appalachian Trail, an activity he said he has enjoyed since he was a high school student.
"But I said 'no' I wanted to do something exotic," Sanford said "... It's a great city."
Sanford, in a brief interview in the nation's busiest airport, said he has been to the city twice before, most recently about a year and half ago during a Commerce Department trip.
Sanford said he was alone on the trip. He declined to give any additional details about what he did other than to say he drove along the coastline.
Sanford, who was wearing a blue and white button down shirt and brown denim pants, said he left for Buenos Aires on Thursday night from Columbia Metropolitan Airport and had originally planned to come back tomorrow.
Media reports said a SLED SUV the governor drove that night was spotted in the airport's parking lot.
Sanford's spokesman Joel Sawyer declined to immediately comment to The Associated Press, and the governor did not return cell phone messages.
Sanford planned a news conference at 2 p.m. Wednesday at his office in Columbia.
Critics slammed his administration for lying to the public.
"Lies. Lies. Lies. That's all we get from his staff. That's all we get from his people. That's all we get from him," said state Sen. Jake Knotts, R-West Columbia. "Why all the big cover-up?"
Trying to drive along the coast could frustrate a weekend visitor to Argentina. In Buenos Aires, the Avenida Costanera is the only coastal road, and it's less than two miles long. Reaching coastal resorts to the south requires a drive of nearly four hours on an inland highway with views of endless cattle ranches. To the north is a river delta of islands reached only by boat.
A spokesman for Argentina's immigration agency wouldn't comment Wednesday on whether Sanford entered the country, citing privacy laws.
The governor said he cut his trip short after his chief of staff, Scott English, told him his trip was gaining a lot of media attention and he needed to come back.
When asked why his staff said he was on the Appalachian Trail, Sanford replied, "I don't know."
Sanford later said "in fairness to his staff," he had told them he might go hiking on the Appalachian Trial.
Sanford said he decided not to return via the Columbia airport to avoid the media. The State Media Company was the only media who greeted Sanford this morning.
"I don't know how this thing got blown out of proportion," Sanford said.
Sanford said he has taken adventure trips for years to unwind. He has visited such places as the coast of Turkey, the Greek Isles and South America. He was with friends sometimes and sometimes by himself.
"I would get out of the bubble I am in," Sanford said.
Sanford said the legislative session was a difficult one for him, particularly losing the fight over whether he should accept stimulus $700 million in stimulus money he wanted lawmakers to spend on debt instead of urgent budget needs.
"It was a long session and I needed a break," Sanford said.
After a brief conversation with a reporter, Sanford was escorted away by an aide.

I have been nothing but a gentleman on this forum. So I ask, why do you disrespect me with the term "Fake Brother"? I only seek the truth. I will pray for you to see this. As far as the profanity, your preemptive acknowledgement of it is appreciated. Your thoughts were in the right place. Your definition of a gentleman and mine are not the same. I'll leave it at that.
Your definition of disrespect obviously differers greatly from mine.
I'll go as far as to say, your definition of a fake and phony also differers from mine.
I'll stand by my quoted post.

We can disagree on whether someone is a gentelman or not all day long. You and I know it's a waste of time.
Ernie has gone out of his way in his own fashion to reciprocate when you or he were attacked. The thing is, he is not that good at disguising his reciprocation. Perhaps you can't see it, but I'm sure many posters here can.
It is what it is, phony. That's how I see it.
Good for you, displaying your loyalty towards your friend.

Don't forget the 20 or so Republicans who've been caught cheating on their wives, or frequenting the DC brothel, or soliciting sex from men in public bathrooms, or attempting to fondle male interns, or ....

The thing that really annoyed the hell out of me, aside from the obvious, was his taking off for Fathers Day. Whether his kids wanted to see him or not to me is irrelevant. On Fathers Day is it more important to be with some cheating broad or making attempts to be with your kids?

I don't know how you reached these conclusions. I have tried to elevate the discourse on this forum. Not once have I used an obsenity on this forum. I may have difference of opinion with posters, but I am always respectful. If you prefer that I engage in toilet insults and widespread use of profanity, well, I'm sorry, that is not who I am. I am a righteous man who seeks the truth. I pray you can understand this, and even if you can not, I will still pray good thoughts for you.

Sanford will be stepping down too? I seem to remember all of you posting about how the GOP always does the right thing and steps down.
