South Carolina has alcoholics sitting on the bench. And so does the US Supreme Ct.
“Ruth Bader Ginsburg may be living up to her nickname, “Notorious,” after she admitted that she wasn’t “100 percent sober” at President Obama’s State of the Union address this year.”
“The Supreme Court justice said her imbibing may have been part of the reason why she was caught on camera apparently falling asleep at the televised address.”
Toal is the most corrupt of all – and is a drunk and notorious liar. Some of us in the backrooms of the state are watching the legislators who are still Toal puppets – and you are included Tom Davis.
To arbitrarily exclude members of the political elite is to deny the people the choices of some very fine candidates. Most members of the SC House and Senate are lawyers and may marry other lawyers or judges or have family members “in the biz” so to speak. There is a huge wealth of talent and connections that would BENEFIT our governmental operations.
The ruling elites in this state have always ruled one way or another. That’s why they’re properly called “ruling elites.” DUH! To try to break up that system is to ask for chaos and the rise of a more dissolute class of judges.
We need the “in-crowd” to stay in charge. It’s as if they have an extra degree due to their connections. Some may call it “corruption” but I like to call it “control” properly exercised in order to keep the establishment fascist system safe and secure. After all, sometimes political enemies of the state of South Carolina need to be put in prison and disappear for 10 to 20 years. Having judges with the proper connections facilitates this process and EVERYONE benefits from it.
