This morning former Chief of Staff for South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford - said, "What I saw yesterday … is a man who realized he sinned," Tom Davis told.

Now what did I see?

I saw a man who was a 5 day no-call, no-show to work and his excuse is that he was having sex with his mistress in Argentina.  He can f&ck whoever he wants but 5 days no call, no show... well in the real world you would be fired.  Gov. Sanford is a spoiled, rich little boy who lies, cheats, steals, and thinks it's okay because he has never suffered any repercussions for anything he has ever done. He is nothing more than just another rich little spoiled bitch.
