Now there are tweets and an article here saying that the South Carolina Governor's Communications Director (press spokesperson) has just up and quit. After hearing that Sanford owes nearly USD$40,000.00 and has only repaid $3,000.00, it's not surprising that his co-workers are suddenly feigning forgetfulness, if not outright fear and misgiving. They can't "remember" whether they flew first class or not here and there. Conveniently they won't therefore be able to repay taxpayers.
