GOP: Watch What We Do, Not What We Say

By Baxter

We cats will ignore a couple of stories that are making us HISS today: The Senate's rejection of the background checks amendment to Manchin-Toomey, and the right-wing pouting that President Obama didn't attend Baroness Ding Dong's funeral in London. How much more pleasant to jump all over that idiot from South Carolina, Mark Sanford.

Sanford has gone from hiking the Appalachian Trail to skulking around his ex-wife's property using his cellphone as a flashlight. Which is a violation of his and Jenny's divorce agreement. Now that the cat is out of the bag on that, the National Republican Congressional Committee has cut Sanford's campaign purse strings.

Sanford's been reduced to claiming that he was trying to watch the Super Bowl with his son. What? And why did it take him 24 hours to issue this lamebrain "explanation"?

But that's the thing about Mark Sanford: The more he talks, the more questions he raises.

Meanwhile, we cats will take a wait-and-see attitude on this whole NRCC no-more-money-for-you decision. As we recall, the National Republican Senatorial Committee cut off Todd Akin last fall. And then gave him money later when they thought nobody was looking.
