What we really need is a “Pity the Billionaires” Day. Fits and his fellow Republicans can all gather and list the grievances against this most discriminated against segment of our society.

Yea, we should give them a tax cut or something. It sucks to be them.

Kind of like how people give the ‘founding editor’ money and suddenly he is a huge fan of whatever the people giving him the money want him to be. Does he inform the readers of this sponsored content? Nope.

I’d love to see some of that money I’m supposedly getting. Brutal truth: It is impossible to maintain the level of editorial consistency this website has demonstrated if you are “pay-to-say.” Just. Doesn’t. Happen.

It’d be great if you — and the others who write for the blog — responded to comments more often. Makes the comment threads, and the stories themselves, much more interesting.

I don’t believe you do pay-to-play. Have argued that point to some local jaw-flappers who say you are paid off now not to do stories on Myrtle Beach corruption. Something to do with Brant Branham and the-nice looking Battle girl. Nonsense, I say! You just believe nothing will come of the fed probe, and that nothing much else going on around here lately rises to the level of what they were investigating. And I tend to agree with you, even though every now and then there is a hint or two that something is about to happen. But shit, if they aren’t going to do anything about the stuff supposedly revealed by Harrell, the investigation of the so-called “Myrtle Beach Mafia” must truly “sleep with the fishes.”

Sometimes, the positions you take and the the things you obsess over can be perplexing, and irritating as hell. Why you support the blatant crony corporatism and oppressive use of eminent domain on that pipeline debacle, while (rightly) opposing the same kind of thing in SC is baffling. Why you seem to have (at least for a while) crawled way up “The Donald’s” ass and set up light housekeeping, likewise, is beyond mortal ken.

But are you a corrupt character youself? I think not. No more than me, anyway, or most of the people who hand out on this blog way too much.

You ‘aight, Sic. You ‘aight.

Will – you forget to mention that Ron Motley – whom we mourned in death not long ago – was a huge player in asbestos litigation. Were a whole lot of lawyers in Charleston setting the stage for Southern Charm getting rich on it in the late 1980s and up through the mid-90s.

Why don’t you explain to the victims of the children’s train accident in Spartanburg how great tort reform is….

Train derailment. Negligent inspector. Negligent conductor. South Carolina Tort Claims Act caps the payout per occurrence when the government is the tortfeasor.

Mesothelioma is typically a products liability claim. Tortfeasor is typically not the government. SC Tort Claims Act has no effect.

Apples and Oranges.

Question March 18, 2015 at 6:42 pm

“Mesothelioma Awareness Day.”??? ROFLMFAO!!! … Sheshus!!! All of these lawmakers are all fucked up, self serving, and are running a criminal operation. Is there a law that citizens can use to justify shooting them on sight?

I thought Tort Lawyer Day was every Wednesday when Toal announced a ton more liberal rulings from the Supreme Court.

mass torts are bad until you are a victim of someone else’s negligence then they are good.
