A Rabbit walks up to a bear that’s sitting next to a tree. The Bear asks the Rabbit “Excuse me, but do you have a problem with shit being on your fur?”, the Rabbit, thinking for a moment, replies “No, not at all”.

So the Bear picks up the Rabbit, and wipes his ass with him

In South Carolina elected/appointed officials are the Bears

Care to guess what taxpayers are

The picture of Martin, Cromer, Peeler, Courson and then the picture of Haley is illustrative of all that is wrong with the Legislature. The opposite of ethics, morals, integrity and anything which is right for the people of the State is represented in these two photos!!….hypocrits, cheaters, liars!

Peeler must have taken a break from meeting with his brother to bring out of state trash into SC and from his extracarricular ;-)- activities to have his picture taken in the Senate !

It ain’t about the law. It is about the people that enforce the law. The books are replete with statues that would allow the proper enforcement of an acceptable ethical standard.

Problem we have is that those charged with enforcing the law refuse to use the law as intended. They hide behind small defects that allow them to look the other way. They pass the buck. They are cowards.

People need changing, not laws.

Obviously, the photo captures our political scholars discussing how ethics (in South Carolina) is actually a sweepstakes; the outcome is per-determined. You have to admit, they have the art of selecting suits and wearing lapel pins down pat.

Anything Co-authored, authored or spoken by Rep. Head Ballentine should be thrown out on account of stupidity! The boy can only write in 140 letter increments! #tweetnation #muthaf**ka

Now you know why they are so afraid of a sensible gun law for citizens. They don’t want to be caught out on the street in daylight with a voter. It’s easier to hide out in a bar. (although that could be changing, hopefully).
