Joseph Lawler notes as one of today's "Must Reads" that in a Wall Street Journal piece , Republican Govs. Mark Sanford (S.C.) and Rick Perry (Texas) are "putting their money where their mouth is." Unfortunately in some ways they do not put their actions where their mouths are, primarily when it comes to taxpayer subsidies for individual businesses. The two state executives co-write: The bailout...

Highly Recommended Oh, yeah. I watched every episode. And I loved it. Sony gets down and dirty with their cheapskate customers (something junkman Fred Sanford would no doubt appreciate) by offering up Sanford and Son: The Complete Series , which puts all 136 episodes (over 55 hours) from the smash NBC series' six (really five and a half) seasons on 17 discs. Bundled up in what has to...

Governor Mark Sanford appeared with Neil Cavuto and makes some excellent points. Bailing out states is not the way to economic prosperity in the United States. Fiscally responsible Americans should not be asked to bail out states that spend money like drunken sailors. It’s just common sense, which our leaders these days seem to be [...]

First there was one; now there are twice as many. When Mark Sanford, governor of South Carolina, appeared before the House Ways and Means Committee last month and respectfully begged the panel to please stop sending money to his state, he was greeted with outright hostility. Sandy Levin, Democratic representative from Michigan, hovered over him: [...]

AIDS remains the world's No. 1 health threat and in the United States is a grave risk to black people in particular. As Phill Wilson, executive director of the Black AIDS Institute, put it, "AIDS in America is a black disease ... about half of the just over 1 million Americans living with HIV or AIDS are black." Yet the disaster of AIDS in black or white America does not have to be this way. While...

Governor Mark Sanford (R-SC) was noticeably absent from the 2008 GOP presidential primary and surprisingly never surfaced as a possible running mate for Senator McCain. He penned a recent Politico article titled What’s next for the GOP? It is a well laid out framework for how the Republican Party can back on track. Does this mean [...]

Gov. Mark Sanford of South Carolina hits the nail on the head with his Politico piece asking what's ahead for the GOP ... and making some good points. I was alerted to it by Norm Leahy in his "Loyal to ideas, not men" post. Gov. Sanford writes: First, let’s go back to the principle of saying what you mean and meaning what you say. ... Second, our loyalties need to be to ideas, not to...

Governor Mark Sanford (R-SC) has a good piece in the Politico where he hits on why the GOP lost (Hat Tip: Don Surber.): Instead, voters rejected the fact that while Republicans have campaigned on the conservative themes of lower taxes, less government and more freedom, they have consistently failed to govern that way. Americans didn’t turn away [...]

South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford has some ideas on how to get the GOP back on track. Let’s take a look: Our party took nothing short of a shellacking nationally. Some on the left will say our electoral losses are a repudiation of our principles of lower taxes, smaller government and individual liberty. But Election Day [...]
