We’re buying a beer for… Governor Mark Sanford

Considering you’re the governor of South Carolina, it would probably be good for people — you know, at least one — to know where you were at all times. Just in case there’s a natural disaster or legislative issue or your wife needs some milk. Important things.
This little detail didn’t stop you from disappearing (for seven days!) to either Appalachian Trail or Buenos Aires, depending on whether we believe you or your spokesman. Even your Lt. Gov. Andrew Bauer has no idea what you did, admitting to Rachel Maddow, “A lot of what I know I’ve gained has been through the news media.”
Oh, and make sure to tell your wife. She started this whole kerfuffle (yep, it’s a kerfuffle) by telling the Associated Press she hadn’t heard from you in days.
Here’s a beer, Gov. Sanford. We imagine it’s going to be a long couple of days explaining just exactly what you were up to.
