His own private taxpayer funded stimulus fund.

He should repay it. That should not however mean he gets a pass. He like ALL politicians (which would include dems like Clinton and Edward's as well) should be removed from office for misuse of power.

Yeah he should repay it. Freaking politicians thinking that public money is their own. F*ck Sanford and I liked him.
 
Jeez, that took you only 10 seconds to continue stalking. I can't read what you write so don't respond after me. Go stalk someone else.

I like his politics, but his character shows him to be a weak man who cannot stand by his own principles. His politcial positions are principled ideals just as much as his moral ones are.

They all did it.

...such use of taxpayer funds for private travel by the first family is typical; former President George W. Bush, for example, reportedly used Air Force One for trips to his ranch in Crawford, Texas, which he reportedly visited 77 times over the course of his eight years in office.

That's not unreasonable though. The president has to take the Air Force One due to security concerns, and although it is expensive, do really want to force him to refrain from ever taking a vacation during the presidency because he has to take the Air Force One? It wouldn't be good for the American public at all to have a constantly stressed president.

Taking the Air Force One down to Argentina to bone your ex-marital lover, however, would be an entirely different matter.

How the hell do you think Bush got to Crawford?

Whining about trivial shit doesn't help you, it hurts you.
