Mark Sanford's fiscal child abuse
Remember Ty'Sheoma Bethea, the Dillon, S.C., girl who asked Congress for stimulus funds to rehab her dilapidated middle school? I thought she was an inspiration for America; wingnuts at the Washington Times thought she was "irresponsible" for asking government to solve her problems.
Now her governor, Mark Sanford, has taken that line of thinking one step further: He told Fox's great poet Glenn Beck that taking stimulus funds to fix schools like Bethea's would be "fiscal child abuse," while rejecting the funds helps kids. No, I'm not kidding.

Last of the True Believers?
By risking his popularity now, Mark Sanford may be quite popular in 2012.

Dr. No: Sanford wants less stimulus for his state, to the consternation of many voters
There's a cool rain falling on the South Carolina State House, but it's nothing compared to the storm inside. The date is April 2, 44 days since President Obama signed his stimulus package into law and 24 hours, or so everyone believes, before the nation's governors can no longer claim their full share of the funds—something the Palmetto State has yet to do. Frustrated legislators mill and murmur in the lobby, awaiting the bell that will call them to their chambers for yet another round of anguished debate. Protesters, mostly teachers, wave handmade signs outside the entrance. On the lower level, a receptionist lifts her endlessly ringing phone from its receiver and repeats a single phrase—"The governor's office, hold please"—again and again (and again). Meanwhile, the man himself, Gov. Mark Sanford, sits behind a closed door 30 feet away, pausing in the midst of the crisis to "visit," as he puts it, with a reporter from a national newsmagazine. And he is starting to cry.

SC Attorney General Initiates Investigation into Gov. Sanford – Last Friday, CREW Asked AG to Look into Governor’s Activities
Submitted by pbjork on 1 July 2009 - 1:49pm. Mark Sanford
CREW was pleased to learn South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster has initiated an investigation into Gov. Mark Sanford's (R-SC) affair. Last Friday, we called on the AG and the South Carolina State Ethics Commission to investigate whether Sanford violated the state constitution and broke state law by misleading his staff regarding his whereabouts, leaving the state leaderless, and misusing state funds to conduct the affair.
(CREW is a Soro's funded [$100,000 Open Society Institute annual grant] Dem witchunt organization and part of his "Shadow Party", whose sole purpose is to dig up dirt and either force out of office or make life hell for Republicans. Founded by current Obama Administration Special Counsel to the President on Ethics and Government Reform Norman Eisen [who was also one of the Obama campaign's largest contributors], Louis Mayberg a wealthy Democrat contributor, and Mark Penn, CEO of political strategy/marketing firm Burson-Marsteller, Hillary Clinton's campaign Strategist
and long time Dem political operative. They hired former Democrat House Minority Counsel Melanie Sloan to run CREW, and one of her first targets was Tom DeLay: The formal House Ethics complaint against DeLay was filed by fellow Texas Democrat Rep. Chris Bell [who was a reapportionment lame-duck resulting DeLay's influence in eliminating Bell's "Dem" district...hence his motive], using the "evidence" gathered by Melanie Sloan and the CREW investigators).
Keep pulling rationalization out of thin air, Jon. The truth cannot be concealed.
