South Carolina’s soap opera gets stranger every day. Mark Sanford, the state’s wandering Republican governor, admitted today that that he also wandered on his wife. Instead of going on a hike, as he initially claimed, he actually traveled to South America to continue his affair with an Argentine woman.
“The bottom line is this: I’ve been unfaithful to my wife,” he said. “I’ve developed a relationship with a dear, dear friend from Argentina.”
This not only spells the end of Sanford’s presidential aspirations, but gives rise to an entire new collection of euphemisms for sex. Such as:
- “Hiking on the Appalachian Trail”
- “Doing the horizontal tango”
- “Invading the Falklands”
- “Going up the Trans-American Highway”
- “Pumping for oil on the Pampas”
- “Riding the Patagonian Express”
- “Visiting Beunos Heiress”
- “Taking dictation from Juan Peron”
- “Going to meet Evita”
- “Scaling the Andes”
- “Hiding the Nazi Soldier”
- “Stroking the double-humped llama”
- “Using the Spanish tongue”
- “Paying In Pesos”
- Negotiating an Argentine Pipeline
- “Entering the Straits of Magellan”
- “Shucking the South American Oyster”
- “Visiting Tuna Town in Tierra Del Fuego”
- “Dining on Argentinian Beef”
