Gringo of the Week !

by Patrick Dugan

Mark Sanford was, a few months ago, a potential contender for the Republican presidential candidate in 2012, thought now it looks like that role will fall to Ron Paul. Sanford knows how to get the most out of his vacation time, he recently took off to get-up with his Argentina liason, one Maria Belen Chapur. Mr. Sanford, you could not have picked a better city and nationality of woman with which to ruin your career and marriage. This is one politician that knows the meaning of Argenhot, and if you´re not convinced here´s a racy e-mail he wrote:

"You have a particular grace and calm that I adore. You have a level of sophistication that so fitting with your beauty. I could digress and say that you have the ability to give magnificent gentle kisses, or that I love your tan lines or that I love the curve of your hips, the erotic beauty of you holding yourself (or two magnificent parts of yourself) in the faded glow of the night's light - but hey, that would be going into sexual details ..."

If you are into conspiracies you may enjoy Cryptogon´s take on the issue, suggesting that Sanford was tagged and played, his personal desires being used as a chip for some political reason that we can only guess at. I had to do something to take this above gossip rag level.
