Mark Sanford has spoken out on the plight of another embattled South Carolina Republican, Rep. Joe ("You Lie!") Wilson. But you could be forgiven for thinking the beleaguered governor was speaking more personally.

Referring to Wilson, Sanford told South Carolina's CN2 News:

The guy apologized, and then you can have a bunch of other people come back and say, 'We want you to apologize again and again and again.

He continued:

At some point in all of life, the question is not, 'When is someone going to make a mistake?', but 'When do the rest of us move on? He apologized to the president. Does he have to issue 25 more apologies before folks will leave him alone?

Compare that to what Sanford said last month in a press conference after Lieutenant Governor Andre Bauer called for him to resign:

And in the wake of [my admission of an affair], y'all in the media, pundits, every body else analyzed it, dissected it, focused on it, reported on it, analyzed it, reported on it, focused on it some more, analyzed it, focused on it, reported on it some more and then analyzed it, focused on it and reported on it some more and then more and in that process South Carolinians moved on.

In fact, Sanford pretty much acknowledged the similarities to CN2 News:

Having seen some of this process a little up close and personal, my thought is it's time to move on.
