Stanford's disappearance is just plain bizarre and wrong on so many levels.

Aside from the whole Gov. issue - a husband goes away and his wife doesn't know where - something wrong in that relationship. Skips out on his kids on Father's Day - says a lot about what kind of father he may be. What is something had happened to one of his kids or his wife - she couldn't even contact him and apparently he didn't care. Not my idea of loving/family relationships.

Evening, Maureen!

President Obama increased the tone of the criticism against Iran. It makes more sense.

The tyranny of the Iranian government reminds me of the Chinese tyranny in the episode of Heavenly Peace Square. Only that without internet, mobile and Twitter.

Occidental countries are requesting to respect to act of the people express their nonconformity with no more deaths or arrests.

The Islamic world needs to understand better the value and benefits of freedom, and not only understand the inconvenience it may cause. It is better to live in a free world, where there is diversity of ideas and debate, even at the risk of making mistakes, suffer slander and slander; than live in a world without the right to critical and evolution. Freedom is the master-spring of human development and evolution, the strength of ideas is more effective than force of arms.

There is more to this story then you think. I bet you there will not be allot of information on this incident and very soon all of this will be forgotten.
Go figure.

maybe his wife decided it was no ones business where her husband was at, and just said that to shut everybody up? What was Obama doing on Father's Day? Did he stay at home all day? Or did he workout for a while, or did he play a round of Golf? If he didn't stay at home all day does that make him a bad father? And, if not, WHY NOT?

this is a case of a republican governor who just doesn't want to do his job properly. he complains about how barack obama is into himself too much, but when it comes to the people of south carolina, the current governor is not there for the people, he's more into himself than he is into his job. he needs to resign...

I think its the Governor's business. When members of my family hike the trail they don't leave a detailed itinerary with me; the trail is so long that it would be difficult to – some days you go further than other days so all you could do is estimate anyway. And missing Father's Day – I have kids and Fathers and Mother's day is no big deal to us – just a commercialized holiday like so many others. We have a nice dinner but nothing much over that. Some people don't celebrate all the holidays.

The wife probably has a way to contact him in case of an emergency. But why tell the press that – the governor according to what they have said was going to de-stress – you don't want the press showing up for that. The press is probably making too big a fuss over this. If he doesn't show up or someone finds him murdered or something then there would be a story – right now its just a government employee taking a few days vacation. Lets move on to real news.

I feel that we should do our best to support any human being /culture that has stepped up and spilled blood to gain the freedom that we have.
The Iranians want freedom, just like us. I am not saying invade and takeover, but show support by insisting that the government stop killing people for fighting for the very same freedom we have.
The Iranians ARE actively trying to obtain freedom. I know if I were Iranian and wanted freedom like I hear about in America, I would be hoping and praying that somehow a miracle would occur and I would see the Americans coming.

Imagine him as President,. things get stressful he takes a hike. The man does not belong in politics, he would even have a hard time in many other private sector jobs that are as demanding. I'm not so sure we have the real story. When I first heard of it, I thought maybe some kind of rehab. Worth looking into.

Lets wait until tomorrow when the governor shows up and hear his side.

It's enough that the President has spoken. He should not listen to those people who wanted him to get belligerent and then
we get another Nokor-like response.

'Hey" cooper, what in the world has happened to our sence of freedom , i mean there putting this govenor on trial for getting away to him self to think and comtemplate the issuses facing his state, dosent he have the right to do that in the united states of america, without having to consult any body, his wife was clearly not worried or concerned , maybe she felt he needed to get away to, sounds like these people want to place him in a police state cause hes govenor, whers our liberties going? just a thought.

what about freedom of movement?
in America, serial killers have it, but not Governors!?
