Absence solved; missing South Carolina governor off hiking
You don’t usually hear about a state’s governor pretty much “disappearing off the grid” as they say, but that was the case with South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, who hadn’t been heard from for four days until a spokesman said he’s off hiking the Appalachian Trail.
“He’s an avid outdoorsman,” the spokesman said. “Nobody’s ever accused our governor of being conventional.”
It’s also got a lot of people ticked off at him.

We don't tolerate personal attacks, insults, name-calling, impersonations or generally hateful comments — they don't make for a pleasant (or productive) conversation. We want to raise the level of debate and encourage a wide diversity of viewpoints — and that means disagreeing without being disagreeable. If you wouldn't say it to your grandmother, you probably shouldn't say it here.
