Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Meanwhile, in Europe:

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has refuted allegations that he paid prostitutes to attend parties he hosted at his various homes.

and/or he wanted to get caught

Or, he thought he was somehow invincible/invisible.

I still cite dumbfuckery even if either of those instances were true.

He's the Governor! You don't spark up an Argentinian booty call in chat sessions!

He already did on Monday's show, when they were still claiming Appalachian Trail as his location. He decided to declare himself governor since no one else was around to dispute his claim and ordered all dogs to walk upright and preserve their dignity. Then, he heard that Sanford had called in and said he'd be back on Wednesday. So, he took off his crown (given to him by Sanford himself last year!) and had a retrospect of all the good he did in those 45 seconds of being gov, complete with video of dogs hopping around on their hind legs.

He is also one of the right-wing govs who refused the stimulus money, even though SC really needs it.

ETA: They made him take it anyway! From cnn.com:

The South Carolina governor has had a bruising year, losing his fight to turn down $700 million in federal stimulus money. Sanford initially tried to require that any stimulus money pay down the state debt, a stance rejected by the Obama administration.

The South Carolina's Supreme Court ruled earlier this month that Sanford had to accept the stimulus funds.
