South Carolina's Mark Sanford Accepts Stimulus Money, After All

It proves the point that there is nothing conservative about the about self-labeled "Conservatives".

Sanford is just like the rest of the hypocrite Republican Governors and Senators who have criticized Obama for doing his best to help state governments that have also suffered greatly thru this Great Recession
However, they are the first ones at any job-producing project, smiling and claiming that they are the ones who supplied this financial help, and once the "ceremonies" are over will go right back to criticizing Obama

With Dem's continued failing policies, there is little choice but to take these funds at thsi point. The bigger issue is that if your local public transporation costs, city run facility costs, and city taxes keep rising unreasonably every year due to overspending, you will be wise to vote the current governor and mayor and Congressional legislators out on all levels, regardless of the endless excuses. Until America demands presidents, Congress and locals government operate within a PAY-GO balanced budget, our nation will continue to be beholden to outrageous pork, the endless unfunded spending and borrowing from our China. China is NOT our friend.

Last year, it seemed like the right thing to do. Now, after the government has broken America, and they are NOT stimulating the economy for jobs, this is just picking up what's left on the table. I think Mark Sanford would have made a good president.

Haven't we been hearing from the right that the stimulus money hasn't helped and won't help? Curious that this conservative finally accepted the money. I guess we all come to the truth sooner or later.

I know you're trying to paint these governors as hypocrites, but you miss the point. The stimulus never should have been done in the first place. Once it's out there, however, it's no longer a level playing field. They have to take it. There's no alternative.

Surprise, Surprise, Mark Sanford taking stimulus money to hel his state. He is just another of the many Republican Senators and Governors who can be added to the growing list of hypocrites who criticize the Obama efforts to help the economy, but are the first ones to show up at job-producing projects claiming that they are the ones who magically produced the necessary funds. These smiling phonies then continue to criticize Obama, without having one concrete idea on how to help the economy

Seems as if the obstructionists can spout about how things would be in an ideal political world but when the rubber hits the road they suddenly have to face and admit the truest and shortest solution to the problem.
