Personally, I fault Sanford and Palen for making reality far too difficult to lampoon. How do you top Sanford’s confession for comedic value?

That’s a rather famous Persian name. Was this an Iranian “honey-trap”? Has anyone seen Sanford’s passport?

The editors have been sitting on them for months. They had the name and address of Maria and yet they didn’t check it out. Very strange. If it was Mrs. Stanford, she problably expected them to follow up. Since they didn’t, she threw him out two weeks ago which forced the issue. It’s one thing to forgive a week-end in Bs.As. with an old friend. It’s another when he keeps going back and forth. Up with that, she was not going to put. </p> <p>In his besmitten state, he was not going to be able to choose on his own. </p> <p>I was also struck by his quoting the Sermon on the Mount in his e-mail. He seemed to think it had something to do with romantic love. I was taught that a better translation was ‘charity’ or ‘compassion’ for one’s fellow man. It was that kind of feeling that seem to be absent from his battle on refusing the stimulus. If he continues as governor, I hope someone points that out to him.</p> I would guess Mrs. Sanford sent copies of his e-mails to the newspaper since it was his personal account.
