Obama to Mark Sanford: Kiss my ass

from ThinkProgress:



Obama administration rejects Sanford’s attempt to redirect stimulus funds.

Last week, Gov. Mark Sanford (R-SC) said he would ask the Obama administration if he could redirect $700 million in federal stimulus money to pay down the state’s debt — instead of for its original purpose of school funding and public safety. The Obama administration today rejected his request, saying that the legislation doesn’t allow Obama to “make an exception for that cash”:



Sanford has said he will outright reject part of the stimulus money if the administration says no to him. Last week, state Senate Finance Committee Chairman Hugh Leatherman — a Republican — introduced legislation allowing the state to spend the money in spite of Sanford’s opposition.

I can think of one son of South Carolina who I fully expect will remind his fellow "Pimento-ians" of this crap when the time comes ...

Unemployment over ten percent, and schools that haven't been redone since the Civil War...Sanford is a dick.
