Breaking: Mark Sanford Censured by South Carolina Legislature

Ah, censure. It’s what politicians do when no laws have been broken but they’re still really pissed about what went down.
With little debate, the South Carolina House of Representatives overwhelming voted to censure Governor Mark Sanford. The Palmetto Scoop reports:

After less than 30 minutes of debate, the South Carolina House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly on Wednesday to censure Gov. Mark Sanford for misconduct in office.
A total of 102 of 113 present members voted to pass a resolution formally rebuking the governor for misusing state aircraft as well as for his 2008 and 2009 publicly-funded trips to Argentina to visit his mistress. Sanford reimbursed the state for both Argentina trips.

Ooohhh, burn! That should teach him.
