Sanford feels Joe Wilson's pain

Via CNN:

Sanford on Thursday compared the scrutiny of Wilson — the Republican congressman who was formally reprimanded by the House of Representatives for shouting at President Obama — to the ongoing political war he has faced since revealing an extramarital affair in June. Sanford called it "the same dynamic."

"The guy apologized, and then you can have a bunch of other people come back and say, 'We want you to apologize again and again and again,'" Sanford told CN2 News in Rock Hill, South Carolina. "But what do people want out of federal representation? They want somebody representing them up in Congress."

"At some point in all of life, the question is not, 'When is someone going to make a mistake?', but 'When do the rest of us move on?,'" he said. "He apologized to the president. Does he have to issue 25 more apologies before folks will leave him alone?"

Apparently Gov. Sanford is failing to remember that although he publicly apologized repeatedly for his affair, no one asked him to do so!!!
