AT LEAST KURT HAS A JOB….
As an example of political mean-ery
Kicking customers out of a burritio beanery
Must be high on somebody’s list.
But Nikki’s ass is an ass to be kissed,
Not to mention Chris Christie’s.
One’s eyes get misty
When he imagines how many lips
It would take to cover the distance between that guvnor’s hips.
So, a Bronx cheer to Kurt Pickhardt,
A man of many “means.”
Remember, Kurt, as you eat those beans,
That a Bronx cheer is a big fart.
Totally irrelevant. Nothing will matter until and unless we rid Democrats of power.
You must me get rid of the Republican party because the last time I check they control Washington and they control South Carolina.
Obamacare, QE, Solyndra, Coal Industry, GM, Welfare, Food Stamps, Labor Dept., Budget, Immigration, Eric Holder’s Justice. Yeah it’s the GOP’s fault …Obama, who vowed to change it all and transform America, has no responsibility, or accountability.
You certainly are the “Best and Brightest”….for the Democrat Party level of intelligence anyway…(:
WMD’s, Bengazzi
Hillary is brain injured from her strokes.She thinks WMD means “Where’s My Dildo”.
They are mad at ya cause you tell the truth.
Ervin is the “Best and Brightest” the dems have. He wants to eliminate the state income tax and expand free health insurance via Obamacare/Medicaid.
That explains why Ervin is spending millions and polling at 0%.
Dump ’em all. Clear the slate. Vote commie or libertarian, no matter.
And stop giving Them (D/R) money! It only encourages Them and makes Them hard to light.
That’s right, GrandTang/BigT/Emily Peterkin! If the people of South Carolina would quit putting democrats in control of everything, unemployment would go down. By the way, thanks for staying unemployed and leaving one more job open for someone else.
SC is actually faring better than the nation, except for the armpits of the state where cyclical poverty has existed – and exists – parallel to Democrat rule. In the GOP sections of SC, we’re doing better, but still hurting compared almost all of Bush’s two terms.
The country has been in a Depression, at the hand of the failed Obama Administration. You can deny that, or blame others, but only the stupid will believe you.
Oh, shut up and get a job already. I’m tired of my tax dollars subsidizing you sitting around all day spamming comments sections. You represent everything you claim to hate, sweet boy.
” I’m tired of my tax dollars subsidizing you sitting around all day spamming comments sections.”
That’s not how taxes work, no one gets to pick what they will/won’t subsidize. If you don’t like the system, you’re screwed.
I’m tired of you.
As some of us keep pointing out, the best way to show that is to stop responding to IT.
Yeah, but I bet he’s getting SS disability for mental problems.
And Abolish the IRS.
Nothing says get to work to a welfare tax sucker than No More Food Stamps for you
THIS ISN’T THE NUMBER TO WATCH, THOUGH …
The labor force participation rate is important, but many labor force participates are unemployed and only searching for jobs. The best statistic to use is called “Percent of population”. It is the percentage of the adult civilian non instructional population who have jobs.
South Carolina’s rate is 54.2%. That is down from 54.5% in July. This number had been creeping up since Haley took office, but has been dropping since May. Mostly since Haley took office, there has been steadying job growth, but the population as grown slightly less keeping the rates improving only slightly. The nation is experiencing the same problem. There has been little improvement since the end of the recession.
From when Haley took office until May 2014, South Carolina gained 109,389 jobs but, since then lost 15,224 of those jobs. SC lost 7,649 in August alone. The situation would probably look worse if you consider many more jobs are part time.
South Carolina has always been poorer than many other states, whether Democrats or Republicans were in power, but nationally the percent of population employed has barely improved since the end of the recession.
Is it tough knowing everything?
The toughest part is remaining humble. ;-)
But, since there’s no sourcing of your numbers, for all “Pride…” knoweth, they could be totally fabricated, as well as your premise.
We know FITS’ stats usually are agenda driven once you check the source.

Nitrat, I used Jan 2011 data and May – August 2014 from the above link. I did some simple subtraction.
TIME TO LAY OFF ALL OF SCDEW STAFF IN THE FIELD (AGAIN!)
SCDEW’s Cheryl Stanton has already closed many rural workforce employment and retraining offices….while the Department of Commerce is calling for getting more workers trained to attract more companies to South Carolina. Maybe Commerce ought to run workforce development instead of SCDEW as it did under Sanford. Now there’s an issue for our candidates for governors to debate!
It’s like… like.. a time bomb!
It’s a plot. Check out GA – their rate went up too. It’s an Obama plot.
tick – tock… it will all soon explode, and become libertarian by default!
Jameis Winston is suspended for entire game.
Greenville, SC (WSPA) — A South Carolina State Trooper has been fired after he was arrested following a domestic assault on Thursday night.
Charles “Homer” Rose III, 70, was arrested and charged with Criminal Domestic Violence after Greenville County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a 911 call regarding an assault at his home on Riley Smith Drive just before 10 pm. According to a report obtained from the sheriff’s office, deputies saw injuries to the victim and placed him under arrest, as mandated by state law. Rose was transported to the Greenville County Detention Center where he was later released on $3,000 bond.
South Carolina Department of Public Safety spokeswoman Sherri Iacobelli stated that Rose, who was a temporary employee with the agency, was initially suspended without pay following the arrest, but later stated that he was terminated effective immediately. Iacobelli said that Rose had been with the agency for more than 40 years but had left and returned several times.
In May, Rose’s wife, Paula, was sentenced to five years of probation and five years of house arrest after a jury convicted her of third-degree arson, attempting to defraud an insurer and filing a false police report after she told deputies that three masked men tried to burglarize their home and set it on fire. Deputies said she set the house on fire in an attempt to collect insurance money.
Report on the G-20 labor markets:

When the US – leader of the free world – is rotten at its leadership, it damages everyone.
We tried to tell the ignorant that a rising tide floats all boats, and wealth for those with the initiative to create, fills pockets all the way down, to the bottom of the hill…
As it is: Harvest Hope Food Bank is laying off staff, and closing its doors to the multiplying folds of the hungry. Food Stamp rolls are at maximum. But you’d rather punish income-generators because your filthy and corrupt gods of liberalism tell you it’s our fault you are miserable and full of hate. When really, all who sell their soul to the immoral, live dead.
You kill yourselves w/ contempt and hostility for all that is not you. And all it gets you is just as destitute materially, as you are spiritually. Worship false gods, and here is the result. It has been that way since Adam.
NIKKI HALEY ONLY CARES ABOUT NIKKI HALEY!
