South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford held a a press conference moments ago to explain his strange disappearance last week. He was thought to be on a hike at the Appalachian trail. When he returned, he told a local paper he was actually in Argentina.
Sanford apologized at a press conference to his family, and his staff for “the way that I let them down.” He said he had a conversation with his father-in-law a few weeks ago about where “my heart was laying my cards on the table.”
“There are moral absolutes, God’s law is indeed there to protect you from yourself. There are consequences if you breach that. This press conference is a consequence.”
“I’ve been unfaithful to my wife and I’ve developed a relationship with what stared as a dear, dear friend from Argentina,” he finally said.
