VETERAN OPERATIVE COMES WITH MAJOR BAGGAGE

|| By FITSNEWS || Richland County (S.C.) Democrats looking to reverse their party’s recent electoral fortunes have tapped a veteran operative to head up their organization.

The only problem? He comes with some serious baggage …

Jay Parmley – originally from Wyandotte, Oklahoma – was chosen to lead the Richland County party despite a 2012 scandal that cost him his job as the executive director of the North Carolina Democratic Party (NCDP).

In April 2012, Parmley resigned his North Carolina post after a former male staffer accused him of sexual harassment.  Specifically Parmley was accused of showing the staffer a picture of a male penis and making unwanted physical advances toward him.  The employee claims he was fired in retaliation for complaining about Parmley’s behavior.

As that scandal was in full swing, Parmley’s ex-girlfriend accused him of infecting her with HIV.

Yeah … ouch.

Parmley still found work despite the drama.  In fact he was hired by former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chairman Don Fowler as executive director of South Forward, a group devoted to revitalizing the Democratic party’s fortunes in the predominantly “Republican” south.

His latest post in South Carolina has made waves, though.

“It really upsets me,” one Democratic activist told FITS. “The crazies in the party love him – in a creepy cultish kind of way.  It really disgusts me.”

Parmley’s allies say his extensive experience makes him a good choice for the job – despite his past.

“Jay’s a great guy,” one of his Democratic allies told FITS, adding that he knows “how a county party should be run.”

Obviously we believe in second chances – and are more than willing to give Parmley the benefit of the doubt.  Having said that, our guess is “Republicans” in South Carolina are going to have a field day with his election.

Fact #1 Sandusky was a registered GOP voter.
Fact#2 Sandusky was the lowest of lows but he did not promote nor was he a member of any lobby etc. He practiced some sick shit, like you grandasshatliarcoward, but he hid it.. again facts..no wonder your blog was such an utter and complete failure, your a liar.

Buz Martin February 1, 2015 at 8:35 pm

I’m not running from anything. I don’t extol the gay lifestyle. I don’t really even understand it. At least not when it comes to two men. Two hot women, I think “How could they not want each other?”

But that’s neither here nor there. I do know it’s none of my business, or yours, what consenting adults do with each other in private. Or if two same-sex people of legal age want to get married.

None of my business, none of yours, and the government should not interfere. Simple as that. Doesn’t mean I support Sandusky, or any of that bullshit. That’s just your weird spin.

GrandTango February 2, 2015 at 9:27 am

George is right, “Frank” (either Rice or Loftin, or maybe both of you taking turns) — that bogus charge never really caught on with anyone that has good sense. Of course, y’all do count on people not having good sense because you think you are the smartest guys in the room. We’ll see soon enough if you really are. I’m betting not. A bunch of arrogant, greedy goobers trying to play big-time machine politics in a very, very small town. Worse than Boss Hogg and his buffoon posse, actually.

btw, speaking of cars and such: Given the “VIP” status routinely afforded certain high-placed and influential people in Horry County by the cops to let them off the hook on most things, what were the odds of someone as well-respected and even loved as Larry Biddle being arrested for DUI before even leaving his own driveway?

It couldn’t have had anything to do with him having gone public with a complaint about how you guys had screwed up business for Jerry Cox Company’s gas station and virtually all of the businesses on the south end of MB and much of the county, could it?

Or with Larry and his son being friends and supporters of a certain beloved and excellent coach y’all helped to hose so badly to bring in your fat-cat “vanity coach”?

And speaking of driveways, what about the guy who hit those bikers and killed one of them after leaving David Brittain’s drunken party? He had a prior on something like that, right, at least a prior charge? Did you guys assist in any way with Hembree and others on the corrupt legal side of the “Myrtle Beach Mafia” letting that guy slide for that to this very day?

And hey, Mike Wooten gonna get more high-profile again? Now THERE’S somebody you’ve kept in the background pretty much for a while, huh, sort of like Kelly, Greene, Dyer, et al? Some people I know remember how ol’ Mike made a big show of going around asking for donations for the infamous political pay-offs at various businesses in MB, in order to make it look like all the money was not coming from Brittain, then never really followed up coz it was just a show. But he’s been just quiet as a mouse since then. Clever of you? Not really. There are those who saw through that crap from day one.

And btw, WHERE’S SHEP? Still got him holed up at the Dunes? Golden Boy Matt footing the bill now? You’ve managed to keep Shep away from the media, but what about the feds? Will he take the fall for all of you like he’s suppozed to? Do you really think they would even buy that, given all they know by now? Hmmmm?

Say, why don’t you and I, or y’all and I, discuss these issues publicly some day soon? We could make it like a Town Hall event, and do it at Fuddruckers, and have the “Next Mayor of Myrtle Beach”, Counciman Gray, moderate. That would be big fun! We could charge for tickets I’ll bet, and give the money to charity, your choice of which one.

Thus this cartel that some call The Myrtle Beach Mafia uses unfair trade practices at every level, even against members of the chamber. And against businesses that are NOT members of the chamber they are far, far more ruthless. The influence and power they exert of City Hall has rarely been challenged in recent years. Now they are being openly called out, and candidates are being called out on the degree to which they are in thrall to “The Bigs.” Not to mention the federal authority being on the case — and let no one kid you, they are going to take a good many people away for an extended stay in one of their own signature properties. Like a group package. A new day is dawning in Myrtle Beach. I suggest you diversify your portfolio.

Oh, stop it Cindy. I told you before, you’re too old for Randal.

Actually, I like Randal in some ways, and would like to see him get into an honest line of work. He should be curator of a political museum, for an example.

He might have had potential at one time, but he is too much the butt-boy for the most corrupt interests in Horry county to ever truly serve the people.

It’s just a fact. Get over your infatuation and deal with the truth: He would jack off to a photo of himself before he’d ever do you.

Um. Wait a minute, I think he already does that all the time anyway.

And there ya go …

He works hard for the people. He takes the time to listen to the concerns of the people and he does his job well. So what is your problem with this gentleman. Or is it you are just jealous!

Buz Martin February 2, 2015 at 6:56 pm

The reports that came out on this came out years after I first learned of it, from the party that was damaged by it. Eventually, it was not reported by me, but by several reporters.

It is what it is. It was never refuted. It just quietly went away after the elections.

In no way did I ever libel, defame or stalk the man or his family. I presented news reports, mainly. Some of which had been suppressed for a long time. That’s politics, dude. At this time I bear no ill will toward Gray or any member of his family. He’s a distant cousin, after all …

As I said, this is all weirdly entertaining. I’m afraid it’s not so much so for others, though. You are not winning friends or influencing people on here with your obsessive spamming of these comment threads with irrelevant shit about me. Not by a long shot.

Horry County deserves a tool like Viers. That shithole has been producing them en masse for years. Boz excluded, of course. And Wayne Gray.
So Boz, what do you think of Mr. Viers? ///

You are obviously trying to get me to talk about the infamous BLOW JOB that Wayne Gray got in the parking lot of Fuddruckers from a city employee a few years back, or you would not be mentioning him favorably in the same paragraph as me, in a comment directed my way.

He’s not a major target of my ire *** at this time *** so I’ll make it short. I did note when I spoke to city council recently that he seems to have shed any remaining vestages of his former alpha dog pose, and looks more like a dweebish bow-tie-Repub eunuch now. So his wife musta done a little snip-snip on the nards, or maybe done the “Bobbit” number on him like all her friends told her she should have done long ago. (speaking of making it short. Heh!)

If so, good for her! TOWANDA!!!

My opinion of Thad Viers has undergone considerable re-evaluation in recent months.

I told his mom a few weeks ago I was not going to continue to attack him. Told him that too, in a message on Facebook — and wrong or right, I’m a man of my word on that kinda stuff. I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt now on a couple of things that had troubled me previously. (Anyone wants to fault me for this, listen, y’all, I go with gut, heart and brain, in that order. When they are all in alignment, then its set. Doesn’t mean I won’t be more retrospectively critical in my book, doesn’t mean that at all. But it’s my set position in the interim, for sure.

I hope Thad will seriously consider taking some initiative against the Ad Tax, and I (and others) will continue to urge him to do so, just as we regularly do with Ray Cleary and Tracy Edge.

I don’t know Thad Viers personally, by the way.
