Re: “FCC may lift TV ban on boobies and F-bombs”

What's wrong with boobs? They're beautiful and awesome. We should embrace them, not hide them or be ashamed of them....

Re: “Charleston County considering a switch to paper ballots”

As systems become larger, they become unmanageable.

True libertarians would know that.

True republicans count on it.

True democrats hate it.

Re: “The Agenda: Mignon Clyburn breaks FCC glass ceiling, Controlling Edisto floats, Hurricane Awareness Day”

What's wrong with a black head of the FCC? What's wrong with there being a black Attorney General, a black Inspector General (Head of the General Accounting Office); a black TV Czar? What's wrong with blacks filling more and more key positions in government, the IRS, the court system, and the military? What's wrong with the Obama administration demanding that the Associated Press reveal its sources? It really shouldn't be of any concern. But it may be a good reason to remember that June is HAM Month (Hug a Minority.) Just in case any of those people bear a grudge against Colonial America, WASP, and right wingers. More needs to be done to let blacks know they are appreciated in this country. After all, they are running most of it. And their influence will be around for a long, long, time.

Re: “The Agenda: Mignon Clyburn breaks FCC glass ceiling, Controlling Edisto floats, Hurricane Awareness Day”

She's sat on the board for nearly four years. She was a member of the Public Service Commission for 11 years. She ran a newspaper before that.

What, exactly, makes you think she is not qualified to be the acting Chair of the FCC - aside from the fact that she isn't white or male?

She's still rich - and that's what really matters.

Re: “Charleston County considering a switch to paper ballots”

We have a useless photo ID law that was created to intimidate minority voters and fully gerrymandered legislative and congressional districts to insure the power of the Republican party. We even have Mark Sanfraud as one of our Congressmen.

Does SC really need to prove to America once again that we are the stupidest state in the country?

Re: “Charleston County considering a switch to paper ballots”

Every one forgets that it was the paper ballots in Florida that caused the nation to have to wait for months to know who was President. They never were able to count them all. This is a ridicuous idea. Do you have any idea what two million ballots look like all stacked up in warehouses or how easy it is to make a few of those stack disappear? Stop being afraid of technology

Re: “Anatomy of an IRS shakedown”

Hamilton is a turd. Professes his love of these idyllic cities of the Northeast, while laying around his computer and bitching about what we have here. Touts his admiration of urban transit and biking, when it's apparent to anyone looking at his pic that he couldn't bike to Krispy Kreme if they were giving donuts away. Writes diatribes in the Moultrie News about withholding Halloween candy from the neighborhood kids unless they bow down and profess their love of communist figures, thinly veiled as a Jeopardy style quiz show. And endorses (as well as sends his money and brainwashed children to) "a college" that once invited a Black Panther and convicted cop killer to give the commencement speech. You're a real winner, hammy. You should really look into taking your "talents" (whatever they may be) to Venezuela or Iran, where they'd be more appreciated. You, William J. Hamilton, are useless and a cancer on our area. The quicker you'd pack up and move to one of your Avatar-inspired wannabe socialist villages, the happier the rest of us will all be. Ignore everything this moron has (past and present) and will write. He has no credibility and is simply an idiotic sham.

Re: “Charleston County considering a switch to paper ballots”

This is a good way to insure election fraud. If there are issues with the electronic machines figure them out and fix them. Just like letting people vote without an ID this is supported by people who do not care about vote fraud.

Must be nice to have your father get you your job and then be elevated to one of the best jobs in DC with virtually no experience whatsoever in what you are doing.

Re: “Gearing up for a sober summer on Folly Beach”

Folly was a ghost town the month after the alcohol ban. I remember the first weekend after the initial ban, we had to drive down to McKevlin's to pick up a board. We got a late start and were not heading down Folly Rd until noon. I was prepared to sit in traffic for an hour, as that tends to be the norm for Saturdays in the summer. Oddly enough, there wasn't another car headed to the beach. It was eery. Once we made it into the downtown area on Folly, we only saw a few people walking around. I am not sure if that will be the turn out for this summer, but I know it had to hurt businesses last summer.

Re: “Craftsmen Kitchen and Tap House”

"Fucking obnoxious review."

What is obnoxious about writing a thorough review with likes and dislikes, coming from someone who has worked in the industry and been pushing/drinking/brewing craft beer for over a decade? Maybe I should have just used your intelligent review model, and stuck to three sentences and no real content. That will really help the restaurant improve things. Maybe next time you bless someone with your own criticism, you could actually just add a review or contribute something meaningful.

Re: “School of the Arts tweet exposes Charleston County Schools' hypocrisy”

the not so thinly veiled point of the article is that black people have it easy and that white people have had to shoulder what orlando patterson called "the ordeal of integration." white people are victims.

this of course is supported by a casual look at life in charleston where black people have segregated themselves in all of the best housing enclaves on the peninsula and along the coast; where their children attend exclusive schools; where black people exercise control authority through their leadership of law firms, local government, the ports authority, boeing, musc, the citadel and college of charleston; where black people eat at pricey downtown restaurants to the almost complete exclusion of white patrons; where expendable white workers fill our local jails. . . . yes. everywhere in charleston, white people are victims.

in all seriousness, tara servatius and other white supremacists are entitled to their belief in black inferiority. but they owe it to their readers to be honest and to defend their beliefs with real evidence, rather than wallowing in the murk of white resentment politics.

Re: “Gearing up for a sober summer on Folly Beach”

A huge group (30-45) from where I work used to take the day off on Memorial Day and hang out on Folly to have some beers and play on the beach. We've all lived in the area for some time. None of us were ever arrested, none of us drove home drunk, nobody ever complained that we were being too rowdy. Now, none of the beaches allow consumption of alcohol, responsibly or not. This year it appears we won't be going to the beach. I'm sure we won't be the only ones to pass in favor of other options.
