The governor of South Carolina, was tired of his boring life

So he boarded a plane to Argentina, to get away from his wife

He told his staff he was hiking, the ole Appalachian trail

When he was actually wrestling in bed, with a spicy Argentine female

When the governor finally come clean, of his whereabouts

His face was red as the South Carolina flag, when the truth finally came out

I beg for your forgiveness, the governor’s speech begin to say

I let the people of South Carolina down, by rolling around in the hay

If you good people could find it in your heart, to forgive me for my lies

I will never let you down again, and this is the reason why

Me and the wife had been fighting, and sex we were having no more

I succumbed to that ladies desires, and my morals went out the door

Now that i’ve had my fling, i’m ready to get on with my life

My staff is glad to have me back, and my salary is important to my wife

So please let me finish out my term, i’ll make our “great state” proud once again

I’ll put my nose to the political grindstone, and get rid of all the viagra i keep in the den

    I love it. That was a pitiful show your govoner put on for the camera. At least his wife wasn’t hanging onto him while he cried. I say thumbs up to her.

  28. XXElleXX Says:

    :-) Hehehehe…damn! The last decade has seen a lot of famous men caught with their pants down…they have almost everything and everyone at their disposal and their favourite pasttime is bonking other women besides their wives?…hehehe…lucky buggers! ~ liked this very much my friend.

  29. Patrick Regoniel Says:

    You captured the scene in a hilarious way. Nice…

  30. Payge Says:

    That was a comical piece to read with a valuable lesson behind it as well.This goes to show everything comes out in the wash and the price paid for it is heavy.But hasn’t sex and politics always gone hand in hand?I always thought they made great bed partners until they are caught red handed.

  31. maranatha Says:

    Irreverent and funny! I remember listening to Shawn Hannity say “He’s an honest man, andd if he said he went hiking, then I believe him….” Boy did he have to eat crow the next day!
