Re: “The Agenda: Deconstructing SC-1, Sanford hearing called off, Graham stockpiles for primary”

"Graham and junior Sen. Tim Scott disagreed in a vote (CRBJ) this week over tax changes that would make internet retailers pay the same sales taxes as brick-and-mortar stores."

I agree with Uncle Tim. Why should I have to pay SC for Dexter Season 7 from Amazon?

Re: “Deregulation will only lead us to disaster”

"he"

There is no "he." Mat is a bot. It's its job is to emulate the persona you call "Mat." I've probably said too much.

Re: “Deregulation will only lead us to disaster”

Mat does at least have enough dignity not to leave comments on his own articles. But I have also often wondered if he has ever had a real job.

Re: “Even though I'm 40, I still need my mother”

Ah mothers. Delivering the perfect amount of encouragement and support lightly garnished with a little debilitating guilt.

Also, you're 40?! Can I harvest some of your cells? Not in a creepy way though, I promise.

I'm pretty sure living people will be receiving money for their labors to preserve the historic architecture.

Re: “Mark Sanford's victory is a triumph of ideology over decency”

Looking at the big picture, the Democrats are desperate to win the house so they can ram through all the crap they forgot about while they were obsessed with ramming through Obama Care. Busch might have lied a good game about moderation and independence but more likely would have ended up as a freshman dog washer for team Pelosi. Sanford won, and to quote the noted Simpsons social commentator Nelson Muntz, "HA HA".

Hey Moredock, I thought you left! Any communist Muslim country will be glad to accept you. What gives?

Re: “Mark Sanford's victory is a triumph of ideology over decency”

I still say we all get together and go on that Celebratory Hike on the Appalachian Trail! And do not even concern yourselves with the expense, the same group who picked up the last "Hike" tab will pick up the tab again. Yee-haw, y'all pack your bathing suits and Spanish Dictionaries for the "Hike"! Hola Appalachian Camino...

Re: “Making Charleston's bars pretty and witty and gay”

After having a better understanding of Takeover and the good it has brought to the community through charity, I rescind my previous comment. Furthermore, I support any effort that can bring together everyone in positive ways like Takeover.

Re: “Mark Sanford's victory is a triumph of ideology over decency”

Mark Sanford represents everything that South Carolina Republicans believe in and want projected about themselves. He didn't just beat a Democrat, he beat 15 other Reagan-worshipping, tax-averse, pro-defense GOP lifers in the primary by a landslide. His ethical violations are meaningless... he's what being Republican in South Carolina really means.

So dry your tears, Will. This is where we've chosen to live, and all of us collectively know that Mark Sanford is the best possible candidate for any office that represents this district or state.

Re: “Mark Sanford's victory is a triumph of ideology over decency”

maybe we should take a look back at what these whiney hypocrits were saying a few months ago. All the gloating does not taste so good when it comes back up.

Re: “In Benghazi show trial, Hillary Clinton must atone for George Bush's sins”

I presume you are a professor or a retired ambassador based on your command of foreign policy, political zeitgeist, cultural/media phenomena, and language usage.
So, seeing as how you're an expert, could you please elucidate your lingering concerns regarding Benghazi that weren't addressed in the report produced by the Accountability Review Board, the Congressional hearing convened by Republicans (as mentioned in the article above), and disclosure of all defense, military and intelligence emails post-event?

Do you know who Roger Ailes is, and what his agenda and tactics are? Say anything enough, assert its truth despite all contrary facts, pick apart peripheral minutiae, and it becomes the truth in the minds of the gullible.
Do you know who Hillary Clinton is and what happens in 2016? Well then, I have just connected the dots for you.

Re: “Mark Sanford's victory is a triumph of ideology over decency”

Don't worry, Laura Elmore Floyd. Ned isn't a real conservative, nor is he a real libertarian. He is a hate-filled blob of hot air that seems to spring a leak every time he clicks on the CCP link. We need more people like you, Laura. People who are willing to step outside their own party lines and vote with intelligence. There is nothing wrong with writing in a candidate, if that is who you feel should get the job. It is your right as a part of this republic.
I am sure Ned will respond to this with some long rant about how I am a liberal retard (I have never voted democrat) and the reason this nation is doomed....DOOOMED! I will just continue to go on with my life satisfied by the simple fact that I am not Ned Hill.
