Gov. Mark Sanford is the King David of South Carolina.
 
He says he is a bottom-line kind of guy. What it means is that he says it the way he sees it. So when he says he is like King David, he knows exactly what he is talking about.
 
King David had his Bathsheba. Gov. Sanford had his Maria.
 
King David wrote the Psalms. Gov. Sanford wrote his lmails.
 
King David impregnated Bathsheba, wife of Uriah the Hittite. He then pulled Uriah out of the Rabbah war and asked him to go and sleep with his wife. When he refused, citing the ongoing war, David sent him to the war front and ordered that he be abandoned there to die. When Uriah died, David married Bathsheba who bore his child. God was displeased. He sent Prophet Nathan to David. "Why have you despised the word of God, to do what is evil in his sight? You have smitten Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and have taken his wife to be your wife," the Prophet queried. David repented but God still took the child.
 
Gov. Sanford had been seeing Maria of Argentina for eight years. When his wife found out and asked him not to see Maria again and to leave for two weeks trial separation, Sanford told his staff he was going to the Appalachian Trail but instead headed to Argentina to see Maria. Upon his return to the United States, he was confronted by a scribe at Atlanta airport and he knew the game was up. Sanford called together a group of scribes and confessed. He promised to repent and dismissed any suggestion that God wants his child.
 
King David was greedy, lustful and selfish. Gov. Sanford is greedy, lustful and selfish.
 
King David married six wives. Now the media is busy looking for other women in Sanford’s life.
 
David had his Jonathan. I say, forget about the other women. Find Sanford’s Jonathan.
