SC Attorney General Initiates Investigation into Gov. Sanford – Last Friday, CREW Asked AG to Look into Governor’s Activities
CREW was pleased to learn South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster has initiated an investigation into Gov. Mark Sanford's (R-SC) affair. Last Friday, we called on the AG and the South Carolina State Ethics Commission to investigate whether Sanford violated the state constitution and broke state law by misleading his staff regarding his whereabouts, leaving the state leaderless, and misusing state funds to conduct the affair. Our complaint can be found here.
CREW executive director Melanie Sloan stated:
CREW is pleased the attorney general has ordered an inquiry into Gov. Sanford’s conduct. It is one thing for the governor to have an affair, it is quite another for him to abuse his position of public trust to pursue an illicit relationship. The people of South Carolina deserve to know whether Governor Sanford – charged with upholding the law – was himself violating the law.
We look forward learning the outcome of the AG's investigation.
Transparency in the Obama Presidency
When did President Obama promise to give a list of who is coming to the White House? You all are going to kill this young president, with your unreasonable demands. You are no better than the Republicans in the Senate, trying to build your business (keeping their job with their constituents) on the back of a young president. What have you done to help him carry out the change he campaigned on? Help him fight the enormously large power against health care reform. Help him fight the enormously large power against health care reform.
Some are saying he may be a one term president, but it is people like you with your agenda (important though it may be to you) that will cause him to say… “It’s not worth it” Trust me… Trust me… he is the only one… Don’t get in his way; rather just find some way to help him… millions of us are. LASTLY show some love and respect…as you fight your cause.

SNOOPERS IN THE WHITE
The White House should be off limits to this kind of activity. They are just looking for news anyway they can get it.
I personally feel that the White House is right in not allowing snoopers, such as CREW and other snoopers, to come in and try to get something to talk about.
