People is south carolina will put Haley back in office because they vote like they drive like fucking idiots.
In the words of Ron White, “You can’t fix stupid.”
The whole tea party “movement” was their creation to begin with.
Yeh whats with Fits pitching this anti Koch Brothers line amongst tea Partiers?TPers are usually supportive of wealthy people viewing them as “jobs creators” AND “successful.”Ive never noticed any animosity toward so called “crony capitalism” among TPers.Their mantra seems to be every man for himself!
Any editor would have sent the above article back for rewrite.
You do know that the Kochs own Cato, right?
Doesn’t matter, Howard Rich.
Besides, wasn’t long ago that the Koch Bros were suing Cato.
To regain complete control, as I recall.
Haley gets back in office because the idiot republicans in this state only vote for the R – and not for the person. If they voted for the person – they would realize how incompetent Nikki Haley really is. As it is – Republicans don’t bother to find out what she does and doesn’t do because she has an R beside her name. Republicans are like a bunch of lemmings – they will follow each other off a cliff because they don’t know any better.
To prove your point – Just look at the bunch of carpetbaggers who put Mark Sanford back in Congress. You would think that everyone would have figured out by now that ALL Mark can do is tell them what they want to hear.
As long as he does that, they ignore the fact that he was monumentally ineffective the last time he was in Congress and an incompetent as governor – just look at the scandals at DOT, DOR, DSS, DEW, etc. months after he left office – Nikki had not been governor long enough to actually do much harm herself, but her idiocy on top of Sanford’s meant those cabinet agencies would CONTINUE in the wrong direction.
choosing which demon you want to torture you in hell.
Fact: Koch Brother’s are the 3rd largest banker “DERIVATIVE SELLERS,” in America. They directly benefited from, and actively contributed to the Banking Collapse that has ruined the world’s economies. They are spending massive money in order to control the regulators who would probably put these 2 slime ball criminals in jail; where they certainly belong.
The only reason Haley is lobbying the Koch brothers is because chief of staff Timmeh told her it’s pronounced “Cock brothers”.
Graham and DeMint only got “A” ratings from this group. Sheesh.

Graham will be smeared so fooking bad, his lost in the elections will be a major blow to his over inflated narcissistic psychopath personality. He has got to go … and he is going to go. Word of mouth is destroying him. Nobody much is going to believe his campaign ads. I am telling you here and now, he is finished.
Are you kidding?Graham will be EASILY re elected,mainly by people like YOU.After all your huffing and puffing and after the four stooges get their butts kicked in the primary,all you Republicans will return home and vote for your partys candidate. I mean ,really, what are you going to do? Vote for the Democrat?Hahaha!
Thanks, now I have to get a razor blade and take that AFP sticker off my truck back window.
Obama’s Call to End Tragedies Angers Pro-tragedy Wing in Congress
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) — President Obama’s call during his State of the Union address to “stop more tragedies from visiting innocent Americans” received a frosty response from the pro-tragedy wing in Congress last night.
After Mr. Obama made his controversial stopping-tragedies remark, prominent pro-tragedy members of Congress looked on in stony silence, refusing to applaud.
“I thought it was offensive and inappropriate,” said Sen. David Vitter (R-Louisiana). “If the President wants coöperation from Congress, he should refrain from his divisive and inflammatory anti-tragedy rhetoric.”
The pro-tragedy lobby is among the most powerful in Washington, spending millions annually to defeat politicians who oppose tragedies.
Another congressman with a strong pro-tragedy voting record, Rep. Joe Wilson (R-South Carolina), also blasted the President’s remark, accusing Mr. Obama of conducting a “war on tragedy.”
“If the President really thinks he is going to prevent more tragedies, he should be prepared for a fight,” Rep. Wilson said. “The American people’s right to tragedies is protected by the United States Constitution.”
