Just like Ted Haggard, Gov. Mark Sanford's "little Sanford" took over the South Carolina governor and was led to his Argentine concubine by Satan, according to his spiritual adviser.
Each Sunday afternoon in May, Gov. Mark Sanford and his wife hosted five other couples at the executive mansion for a spiritual "boot camp." Topics discussed during the hour-and-a-half-long sessions included forgiveness and "not loving your wife as Christ loved the church."
...In an interview with The Associated Press this weekend at his Columbia office, just blocks from the State House, [Warren "Cubby"] Culbertson said he believed his friend when he said that this was his only marital transgression. He thinks Sanford was simply caught off guard by "the power of darkness."
..."God hates lawlessness and is tireless in His desire to dissuade man from his fascination with lawlessness," reads a paper titled "Cubby's Talks." "Our hearts are lions' dens of devouring lusts. Lawlessness torments righteous souls every day."
Culbertson does not believe the other woman went out of her way to seduce a married man. When asked if he had met Maria, Culbertson paused, then looked up, an embarrassed smile creasing his face. "I'm not going to comment," he said.
Some days are better than others, I guess. From The Leaf Chronicle& lt;/a>:
A disagreement at the local Social Security office Wednesday ended with one of the people dropping her pants.According to a Clarksville Police report, a customer became angry when she and a office clerk got into an argument about the customer's gender.
The suspect then allegedly dropped her pants to prove she was a female, according to the report by CPD Officer Nathan Vanatta.
Well. As we're having this "reboot" week that includes a lot of lively discussion on sex, gender, transgender, transsexual, and privileges of all sorts, the last line of the article goes to the suspect reality of living trans:
According to the report, the suspect was born a man and had gender reassignment surgery and is now a woman.
Worthy of note, I guess, is that the article mentions an argument between both the customer and the clerk, and metions the customer was "angr"angry." Not only was the customer sex and gender suspect, but now she's a criminal suspect as well.
...With her story being of interest for her local press.

How are we supposed to get anything done with health care reform with ridiculous attitudes like this? (Think Progress):
During a townhall in Waukon, IA Tuesday, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) was asked by a constituent of his: "Why is your insurance so much cheaper than my insurance and so better than my insurance?" When Grassley struggled to explain the details of his own health care plan, the elderly man followed up, "Okay, so how come I can't have the same thing you have?" Grassley said, "You can. Just go work for the federal government."
