God’s Plan Is For Mark Sanford to Keep His Job, Says Mark Sanford
1 July 2009, 8:14 AM. By Chris Alonzo
Oh, this is a bag of dicks again. After humiliating his family on a global scale, Mark Sanford made the announcement via his personal website, Facebook and Twitter that God wants him to learn his lesson by doing the hard thing and staying on as governor of South Carolina. Jesus Christ on a pogo stick are you kidding us?
While expressing remorse and a personal desire to “lay down the sword,” (i.e. resign the governorship), in the tradition of the “military model of leadership,” Sanford says God’s will is that he keep his job so that God can really kick him in the butt and give him the chance to redeem himself, like in the movies.
One might ask why God has it in for Sanford’s wife and children, and what on earth He was thinking when he let Sanford book that flight to Argentina on Father’s Day weekend, but God’s plan is mysterious and divine, so it’s really not up to us mortals to try and untangle it. Just trust in the Lord that something really awesome and inspiring is on its way, and it’s not just some ambitious politician covering his ass by hiding behind religious jive talk, because that would just be silly.

I always find it incredibly convenient when egotistical folks like our frequent flier here claim that “what God wants” is, strangely, exactly what they want too! Crazy how that tends to work out so well all the time.
And, conversely, how when they do anything bad, it was because of bad ol’ Satan’s influence (but, only if they get caught).
Accounting for one’s own behavior in a mature and adult way and accepting responsibility - yur doing it rong (as the kitties would say).
Jesus wants me to take the rest of the day off and go to Fire Island. Bye, bitches.
haha I’m with you.. I think Jesus would like me to skip work and school and do some much needed retail therapy.
Seriously. “I’m generally not one for stepping on puppies, but it’s God’s will. What can you do? Also, if you’re not done with that piece of cheesecake I heard that God wanted you to give it to me.”
I want to know why God only gets credited with the bad PR stuff. You never hear so much about God wanting the troops out of Iraq, or God wanting no child to go to bed hungry, or God wanting equal rights for all.
No, it seems that God only talks to the bigots, the racists, the intolerant people in our society that are too filled with self-loathing to look outside themselves and see things from others perspectives.
To be fair, God gets some seriously love at the Grammys. He apparently talks directly with The Pope, Mary J. Blige, and politicians who cheat on their wives.
“serious” love. Oh, death.
and athletes, don’t forget athletes.
However, the fact that the lakers won the NBA title just proves there is no God.
God talks to me through my concha.
