Oh wow this is funny. -WB

[indimuse]

1. LOL!!

Pretty funny, indeed! hhehe knr!

[amyrose2712]

2. HAHAHA! nt

[tomm2thumbs]

3. too funny - laughing still

[jhrobbins]

21. Yes, except for the unfortunate detritus from this which will be that the 'fags'

are just out for sex with underage pages and the straight governor had a mature and loving relationship with a woman which is the way it is with all of the 'deviants'. And if you think that won't be the take away from this you are naive.

[tavalon]

26. I think he was just trying to show the difference between poetic and tacky

[jhrobbins]

28. Yeah, I'm not concerned that Bill Maher is going to start queer bashing

It's the minions of the RW that will use this and I'm not saying that they haven't already thought of it independent of BM.

[proud2BlibKansan]

4. LOL One of Mahrer's funniest bits

[ScottLand]

5. Priceless!

But never forget -- the Mark Sanford emails may be beautiful and poetic, but if Clinton had written the same things, Fox would have quoted it for weeks as sleaze. I don't care if they're in love or not, just don't condemn others for doing the same things you do.

18. Oh yeah, the repukes corporatemediabase

will let them get away with hookers ala vitter and affairs ala ensign..foley didn't fare so well, though.

[Honeycombe8]

6. Too funny!!!!! nt

[Iwillnevergiveup]

7. Rec #14

Maher really on his game.

[AlbertCat]

8. Foley's are more real

Sanford's are blubbery BS. If he's in love...get a divorce. What is he? A teenager in love? He's going thru midlife crisis. He's still cheating on his wife. He's still lying to his family, constituents and everybody else. A blubbering, schmaltzy, over-religious, egotist doing as he pleases while trying to deny his state stimulus money. What's love got to with it? He's sneaking off to have his teenage woopie while he's supposed to be working for his state.

And let us not forget, C House condemns Foley to eternal flames just for who he is. Sanford gets help and support for his crap.

[Jade Fox]

10. Very well put. I agree completely,

[Peregrine Took]

11. No wooing or romancing wasted there - just get down to business. Ugh!

[AlbertCat]

14. No wooing or romancing wasted there - just get down to business. Ugh!

It's a male/male thing. Y'know, like locker room talk. You don't expect that on a candle lit dinner.

[katkat]

13. difference

Albert, Foley's were sent to mostly minors. Quite a difference.

Plus, Mrs. Sanford doesn't seem to be exactly crying in her beer. I think he should dump her. Better than spending the rest of his life with someone who doesn't give a damn, and doesn't seem to have ever given a damn.

[AlbertCat]

15. Albert, Foley's were sent to mostly minors. Quite a difference.

Not too big difference though... since his targets would not be minors in a matter of months.

But technically... and lawfully... yes. Like he couldn't have waited.

Foley also wasn't mentored by a Christian Cult who taught him he could do whatever he wanted. I'm sure he never thought he had god on his side for this.

Another big difference. I'd say a more important one.

[jhrobbins]

22. I think the age of consent in DC is 16-I think I remember that coming out during all of this

[chervilant]

25. Pathetic

That anyone would offer even a shred of justification for Mark Foley's wholly inappropriate and insupportable behavior.

We are truly NOT a child-centric society. I can assert this not just because of what I've seen repeatedly posted minimizing Foley's egregious behavior, but because I was perped on as a child. I assure you, there is nothing remotely acceptable about Foley's behavior.

[Bette Noir]

20. No, she should dump him.

He's the lying scum who cheated on her. She had known about the affair for five months, and had already asked him to move out because he refused to give up his bit on the side. I'm glad she's showing a little dignity, instead of crying for crumbs when he publicly disrespects the woman who had four children with him.

He'd get credit for romance if he divorced his wife, quit his job, and moved to Argentina. As is, he's just pathetic. And his wife's pathetic, too, if she lets him come back after he has declared in front of the whole world that the other woman is his "soul mate."

She's the one in the family with the money, too. I wonder what the divorce laws are like in South Carolina?

[Cha]

19. Oh yeah again, sanford

should have to resign a la foley.

[ihavenobias]

9. Awesome clip.

Thanks for posting.

[Divine Discontent]

12. oh bill...

this is easy - each knew the audience they were 'playing to' when they wrote their emails... nuff said...

and it was noticeable when he said, "the gay congressman who was (in a super sissy voice)'text messaging little boys'....." they weren't little boys, they were around 17 if I recall - still improper, but I just love how he says that line which wasn't factual and had to correct himself. What's the youngest teenager you've been with bill?

both are sleazy for what they did, and just writing fluffy words was a product of wooing the woman that was paying attention to him (Sanford), as he isn't that attractive.

[DeSwiss]

16. K&R!!!

[Cha]

17. What a way to frame it..

to show just how much in love sanford was..by comparing emails to foley's!

Geeze! And, I'm with Maher on this one..how Does the world find out about those "private" emails? I've been curious about that one.

And, who were those peeps sitting there with Maher? Thanks, Bill~

[Wetzelbill]

27. MT Governor, Brian Schweitzer, Markos Moulitsas from DailyKos and

actress Anna Deavere Smith who if you watched The West Wing played the National Security Advisor, Nancy McNally.

[Cha]

29. Thanks, I was thinking later

..that might have been Schweitzer!

[Supply Side Jesus]

23. K&R!

Wow....loved it!
