SC Gov Sanford getting blasted for refusing bailout funds

[Razmear]

I haven't noticed any chatter about this yet on here, but it's all over the South Carolina news.

Gov Sanford is refusing to take federal bailout funds except to be used to pay down the states debt, and the state house and senate are all fear mongering how 1000's of teachers will loose their jobs and violent criminals will have to be released from prison cuz we won't be able to afford it unless we take the bailout.

Here are some news links:

I'm seriously hoping Sanford makes a presidential run in 2012.

I explained it to a lib the other day Why it was good not to take the MONEY.

I told her " Would you take a $100 if it required you to spend $10,000? "

Sanford is doing the right thing. Kudos to him. Not every politician is corrupt to the core.
