    Did anyone watch Maddow last night and see the high-larious interview with the Lieutenant Gov of SC?

    But was Sanford really in Argentina?? I mean, tomorrow we could find out that this whole time he was walking the beaches of Bimini.


    Where in the world is Governor Sanford?

    I'm not great at modifying lyrics but this is my try:


    Well he glides around the globe and he'll flimflam every nation,

    He's a double-talking diva with no taste for local action,

    His agenda's loaded up with presidential ambition,

    Tell me where in the world is Governor Sanford?

    I'm going with Medicaid as America's clitoris. You have to go down (below the poverty line) to access it. Then there's some tricky manoeuvring to actually get to the facilities. Then you put in the hard yards, and sit back and wait for your turn. Finally America gives you a bit of lip service and sends you on your way, feeling a bit used and with a funny taste in your mouth.

    empty rhetoric about how great government social programs are the nation's clitoris. i could go into this metaphor much more in detail but it's early and i'm tired. insert something here about having to work very hard at navigating the system before any sort of pay off ensues.

    I heard part of the press conference yesterday, but missed the HuffPo question, and the question about Obama smoking. As to the smoking, Obama becomes more Bartlett-like all the time. Given the stressful nature of his job, is it any wonder that occasionally he needs a smoke? He's a human being for crying out loud, not Superman.

    Obama [floating oustide the window, cape fluttering in the breeze]: "I don't think so, Ahmadinejad!"

    Ahmadinejad: "Curse you, Presidnet Obama, but you will not defeat me this time... for I have finally divined your one weakness... [Pulls out a pack of cigarettes]... Niocitne!!!!!!"

    @NefariousNewt: Post-election, I remember someone on This American Life saying that Obama couldn't totally quit smoking, because it kept him human. This commentator, whose name escapes me at the moment, worried that if he was forced to quit smoking he'd end up with a worse form of release.

    @romasun: He made a point of saying that he didn't do it in front of his family, or in any public venue, so what's the harm? Personally, yes, I'd like to see him kick the habit, but when you're dealing foreign affairs, wars, an economic downturn, and the Republicans, I think we could all use a smoke now and then.

    The Kurtz piece was a monument to Fail. Huff Po offered a venue through which Iranians could voice concerns, questions, etc. and Obama gets shit for answering such a question? ugh. Loathesome manufactured controversy.

    Nico-gate is all about mainstream media shitting their pants because Nico has kicked everyone's ass all over and sideways with covering Iran (along w/Andrew Sullivan), which got him a well-deserved call in their precious little White House Press Corps club. The riff raff is gettin' in!

    I love you.

    I fell madly in love, again, with AS this week. That gets complicated because I am married and he is as well, and does not like the girls so much. But his coverage of this conflict has me in constant goosebump mode.

    I have been trying to write him an email for 2 days.

    Nico-gate has been the cherry on top of what I expected was our own little media revolution that has been expedited by Iran.

    Did you read AS's column in the Times Online about Twitter?

    This message paid for by Sanford for President 2012 and the Argentina Tourist Board.
