“Palmetto State ranks dead last in the nation in open government”
Pretty Ugly has always been a favorite oxymoron but “Open Government” is beginning to kick its ass.

This piece’s view – poor pathetic weak citizenry have to follow behind the
‘lead’ of a press organization strengthens and promotes the tool arrogant politicians use to exceed positional authority citizen creators explicitly delegated and limited through our constitutions and law. Political action, aka group power, aka herd power, is a tool of servants. The bigger the herd, the stronger the group force. Group power is
subject to weakening, or strengthening, by the numbers in the group. It’s called collectivism. It’s affected by the laws of man. Get it? Group power doesn’t have anything to do with citizen higher source of self governing authority. PAY ATTENTION AUTHOR. Herd power CAN’T exercise citizen inherent unalienable authority to INDIVIDUALLY face, limit, redress, and hold a particular servant personally accountable, for abuse of citizen creator delegated positional power. This piece embodies a belief the citizen has no authority or means to redress, limit, or hold any servant personally accountable. If this belief is accurate, we don’t self govern anymore. Governing by group means individuals can’t use the Judiciary powers we created to limit servant abuse. Does this website promote rule by elected group??? This website serves citizenry in that gossip is to truth like smoke is to fire. Follow the smoke to find the truth. But advocating citizen helplessness to limit and redress servant abuse is repugnant to our constitutional protections, and strengthens citizen reliance on the individually subjugating power of groups.

Well…..according to the Post and Courier website, it would seem that certain informational “stranglers” are retiring. http://www.postandcourier.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=%2F20130305%2FPC05%2F130309682%2F1010%2Ftwo-senior-evening-post-executives-to-retire#_=_
Hopefully the new shoes will understand the value of a “walking” article…..

You are full of shit on this, Will. the SCPA would love legislative transparency, but any bill with that included is DOA. the SCPA wants the original bill to go through. If legislative exemption is attached, the bill dies, probably through some procedural “glitch” like last time.
This bill was sailing through last year until Quinn attached the legislative exemption and it died. This stunt gives him the ability to say he is doing something about open government when he is actually the one killing it.
Exactly. Let’s tell the full story, shall we?
