S.C. “Republican” Party chairman Chad Connelly will coast to reelection this spring when the cranially challenged hypocrites who comprise the membership of his party gather for their annual convention.
Which is why it amazes us that he is engaging his opposition …
Oh well. The stupidity evidenced by this establishment hack is good news for our website, which gets to report on a pending lawsuit against the SCGOP chairman (and the party itself) in the wake of an ill-advised email blast implying his political opponents were terrorists.
“As we close in on the end of our conventions and in light of the world in which we live where terrorists try their best to blend in with our culture, we cannot take anything for granted and cannot allow ourselves to associate with people who rant endlessly hateful stuff,” Connelly wrote.
Connelly then specifically identified a party activist by the name of Brian Frank, who is said to be in league with Samuel Harms – Connelly’s opponent in the SCGOP chairman’s race.
“I want to warn those of you in upstate meetings where I have seen this person that you do not need to let him near your meetings,” Connelly continued. “On a related note, Brian Frank has threatened me and my family in the past and he is the primary Facebook, twitter, email and text person supporting Sam Harms.”
Whoa …
Frank – who is raising money to sue Connelly for slander as a result of the email – is definitely no saint. He’s posted some vile anti-Semitic nonsense to his website in the past (he claims it was for “informational” purposes) and based on the barrage of emails, tweets and other communication we’ve received from him pressuring us to write on this topic, it seems clear that (like most South Carolina “Republicans”) he’s more than a few bricks short of a full load.
But does that make him a terrorist? Or deserving of being compared to terrorists?
According to Connelly (who is thick as thieves with fear-mongering U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham), the answer appears to be “yes.”
Again, none of this is going to remotely impact Connelly’s reelection bid – but it is good copy, as well as the latest example of a South Carolina “Republican” demonstrating a total lack of understanding of the Art of War.

Brian Frank’s obsession with Connelly is borderline criminal. These lunatics like Frank are what ruined the Tea Party movement.
ditto!

If you look at his Twitter, Brian Frank says the “Boston Marathon Bombing is a Staged Terror Attack.”
I think that says all we need to know about this nut.
Lee – Brian Frank’s recent Facebook post is even better: “I speak from personal knowledge and experience when i say that Jews are greedy, elitist, arrogant, hateful, usurious,racist, litigious, profane, dishonest, immoral, godless troublemakers who destroy everything in their path. I’m not saying that all Jews are all of those things, but the vast majority are most of those things, if not all. Even though they don’t believe in God, they somehow believe they are God’s “chosen people”, and that the rest of humanity is only put here to serve them.”
For any serious Republicans to have a problem with running guys like that out of the party on a rail is insane. Just saying.
All things must come around eventually. Or perhaps they just linger out-of-sight. That crazed howling regarding Jews could have come straight from the pages of 1000 pamphlets and articles, or from speeches, by the farther reaches of staid “respectable” Republicanism in the upper midwest and northeast in the late 1930s and earliest 1940s. (Pearl Harbor and ensuing events eventually shut them up.)
Brian Frank is an awful writer, there is no way he wrote that!

Hey Cockroach Maker
When you come up for air how about let me know what you think of the new GOP logo
Just to not play favorites I have also include the Democrats new logo
LMAO!
Great job on the avatars. I think you need to find a way to have both listed at the same time next to your name…too bad the pic space isn’t larger.
Speaking of terrorists, which is a great way to get the sheeple motivated into voting for you, does it not seem that Connelly is sporting a Dr. Evilesque look in the above picture?
…. that guy is SCARY-CREEPY !!!
Ya know, is it just me or does it seem like EVERY political race is populated with a choice between losers?(on both sides of the aisles)
It’s funny watching Republicans and Dems go back and forth fighting over what is a choice between turd piles.
I’m with you on the pic size. It would be nice if Sic could incorporate an upload function which would allow for larger pics. I have emailed him about this issue(not with him as he didn’t respond) and tried to point out the traffic increase it would bring. Still, this is a pretty awesome website. Evolving…I hope…
Jim,.. good one!
The only issue I have is that you used ComicSans for your font. But then again, a crappy font is appropriate for crappy parties…

I don’t mind the email. I do mind stalking your candidate’s opponent in front of a place of business. Didn’t this guy do something like that recently? What an inane thing to do.

Sounds like the Tea Party nut that said the shooting at Newtown didn’t happened,it was staged.
What difference does it make your F*#kin Brain Dead Dolt..??
The GOP kicks your @$$#$ in election after election. And the state is actually faring better than the Leftwing Obama States…Except is SC where democrats ride heard over generation after generation of Filth and poverty…And except for the mess FITS’ Liberal-Terain Boy Sanford is making…
So STFU…or talk about the TOTAL Debacle that the Marathin Bombing is…and how Obama is F*#king it up more by the minute, as FITS ignores it…

Few things:
1) Harms is an idiot.
2) This Frank guys is an even bigger idiot…who is quite possibly mentally unstable…with ant-Semitic bigot thrown in for good measure…
3) He is supporting Harms…and Harms is fine with that.
4) Connelly didn’t call him a “terrorist”
5) And Fits doesn’t know the 1st thing about the Art of War
Yes, but does he keep his friends close and his enemies closer?

We need to ask Chad Connelly these quetions:
1. The supreme court said that you failed to follow state law with
candidate filing and this resulted in over 100 republicans being removed
from the ballot , are you going to resign?
2. Ed Harris got
more votes than his primary opponent why did you list Ed Harris as
losing election? follow up Who paid you off?
3. Do you take responsibility for all the improper filings for the
candidates getting removed from the ballot? If so, when will you resign?
4. Why are you opposed to the lawsuit to prevent democrats voting in our primaries?
5. South Carolina has historically run and paid for its own
presidential preference primaries in January. Why did you ask the
Government to run and pay for the primary? Why do you need to rely on
the govt to do something that we can do ourselves?
6. The
republican party has always conducted candidate filings without any
problems until you became chairman, why do you support the legislation
that would put the govt in charge of candidate filing?
7. Why did the SC GOP borrow $340,000 and how do you intend on paying it back?
1) The court threw candidates off because THEY didn’t comply with 2 different laws that were conflicting with each other
2) The state committee, not Chad, voted against Ed Harris – get your facts straight
3) See number 1
4) He’s not opposed to a lawsuit…file away. He – and the PARTY – supports a change in the law to have people register by party – so we CAN close our primaries.
5) The state election commission ran the 2008 Republican AND Democrat primaries and the 2012 Republican because, thanks to federal laws, it’s impossible to comply without getting our asses sued.
6) He supports keeping the party in charge of filing. Again, get your facts straight dude.
7) See legal bills for #1… paying for suits that were filed by Republicans by the way
Good lord man. How many times are you going to post these inane questions? They’ve been answered by everyone and their mother. Stop being a lemming for Harms and Brown.
Brian Frank’s rap sheet is a mile long in Cherokee and Spartanburg Counties. Maybe he needs the lawsuit “fundraiser” for himself.
