He gets so wrapped up in the boring ideological libertarian talking points that he loses his train of thought.

Speaking of charities, does anyone know why the contact phone number for the Original Six is a land line based in Bamberg??????

Would it help if you could locate the physical presence of the phone? What do you think would happen if you volunteered to give a donation? Be assertive in your quest! Ask Jackie Chiles for hints on snooping. Get back to us with your findings.

Nice house. I don’t know why he hides it as his address. I’d be proud to have that as my big mansion in the up-state. So to Scewed’s question, is it in his district? Of, is the money used for the purchase coming from campaign funds. And if so, it would seem a supeana to the lender to identify how those funds were identified (like a gift letter tied back to the account) would really connect dots.

You idiot. Even the most basic search would show that the prior owner, Melissa Kendall, had the house foreclosed on her in 2003 and again in 2012. The bank dismissed the foreclosure in 2013, meaning they probably did a short sale, hence the $250k purchase price by the bank. When you buy a short sale house, the bank makes no guarantees about anything in the house and will not repair anything inside. You have no idea what was wrong with that house when they bought it at the “bargain” price.

You also stupidly failed to notice that the house is being taxed at the 6% rate, indicating it’s actually not their primary residence.

Good Lord, I should be getting paid for my investigative journalism here.

In 2011, William White bought a house at 112 duraleigh rd anderson sc, WHICH HE STILL OWNS AS HIS PRIMARY RESIDENCE. It is appraised at roughly $142k and is taxed at the 4% rate.

I mean come on, guy buys a bigger house for a good deal and suddenly there’s got to be something bad about it. He probably listed the other address because he didn’t want people coming to his house.

This is all public information. Do some research before you do a hit piece on someone.

Bradley Moorhouse also owns the house beside open lot (you can see the white house or outbuilding in the corner of the picture, they were separate pieces of property. However, he lives at a different address. He bought the house and adjacent land in 2007 with Bryan Moorhouse (his brother, im guessing). So while all the house selling and moving was going on, the Whites most likely rented this house. All of which is still in House district 6.

Makes sense.

And, until he informs the Assessor that he has changed his residence, the Dursley Dr. house will remain at 6%.

What I usually find interesting in such public records data-mining is the mortgages and home equity loans.

He’s costing himself a ton of money if the $390k house is a primary residence since those are taxed at a 4% rate. He’s claiming the $142k house as his primary residence and paying the 6% at the $390k rate.

His”home residence” in a vacant lot owned by a lobbyist looks suspicious. It’s not enough to nail him though. Your source pointed you in a direction to dig up dirt, go to it!

Playing with our money we are forced to pay via mandated law and taxes, and funneling it around in many ways to their friends – and also in some ways – back into their own pockets. They have been “Self Policing” for so long with all of them stealing from us, that they develop the mentality that they are untouchable. This is why Harrell and his group of gangsters started with legislating to shield them from prosecution in state criminal court. They reacted .. .they were rattled … they fell all over each other in panic as they tried to manufacture bullet proof vest that would stop Wilson. Amazing, huh. Totally idiots who must be put behind bars for life – including Jeal Toal and Judge Casey Manning and Niki Haley …. All of them are white collar criminals. FACT! Billions and Billions of our money that the vultures all want. They circle it and take turns and share with their fellow greedy vultures. Centuries ago, crooks like them would have been hog tied and beaten in a public square my mobs of peasants.

Hugh Leatherman has sent the dogs after Brian White, just as he did Harrell. White is the last man between Leatherman and one man rule of SC.

Leatherman has relegated the House to kindergarden status, purchased the Governor cheap (more on that next week in an upstate paper) and now is going to have billions to spend all by his lonesome.

One man rule of a state in these modern times. Hard to believe, but true.

Mmmmmmm … That’s a mighty fine looking $400K house! Out here in Taxifornia anything similar would be $1M++.

(Have ya-all got a mosquito problem or something in that neighborhood?)
