6. Wow. Really? That's it?
1) this appears to be an admission of guilt
2) but does paying back the money just clear the whole thing up?

I hope not. It just stinks. ("aw, alright, you caught me, hehehe, here's the money...")

8. BOOM goes the dynamite
He'll be lucky not to have to resign tomorrow.

He won't be governor of South Carolina on July 4.

12. If I robbed a bank
but gave the money back when I was caught- I would still go to jail. So should Sanford. Not being able to keep his pants zippered is one thing but robbing taxpayers to pay for his sex jaunts deserves an indictment.

14. Giving it back doesn't stop it from being illegal to use tax dollars for personal pleasure

16. Why do so many of these folks decide to pay for there misdeeds
only after they are caught?

Isn't it true that there were back taxes owed, and corrected returns filed, by Obama nominees?

It's always "Oh shucks, that was on my 'to do' list, but it's been there for awhile, so I'll get to it now that it's in the papers."
