Gen. Longstreet- we agree, however, you’ve got to start somewhere!

Transparency is overrated. It is simply not an assurance that the right thing will be done. Hell, old Win and that damned old goggle-eyed snapping turtle Meade couldn’t have been more transparent about what they were about at Gettysburg. They were all about digging trenches and getting their men into impregnable positions on the high ground and then waiting for the Johnnies to come a-calling. But did that transparency cause Lee to do the right thing? And did we oblige the Yanks? Did we? Did we?

Would expect that from someone who takes their teen age children to Nine Inch Nails concerts.

Huttoâ€™s argument is weak and an oversimplification of a VALID argument for transparency. As Einstein said, everything should be made as simple as possible. We simply need to have 100% Transparency, no ands ifs or buts. What Rep. Hutto is doing is supporting this Anti-transparency insanity because he is a liberal demo-CRAP who doesnâ€™t want to be accountable for pork spending sprees with our TAXPAYER dollars. The psychology behind his justification shows he is clearly biased, resulting in a psychogenetic fallacy; therefore, his argument must be wrong!

You’d think an attorney would have chosen his words more wisely. I certainly wouldn’t hire Brad Hutto to represent me (if I ever needed it).

Unfortunately, the Republican leadership has this same mentality. The rest of the General Assembly needs to wake up and choose better leadership or they will sadly be guilty by association.

Every time one of these guys trots out another excuse why representative democracy doesn’t require citizen participation just remind them that 41 states require a recorded vote on every single bill that becomes law. Funny how legislators in those states are still doing just fine.

Whatever happened with ole Brad being investigated by Jean Toal’s crowd about his undue influence with magistrate’s court DUI cases? Oh, that’s right: he’s a lawyer legislator and a Democrat. My bad.

Oh wait, uh, sorry, never mind.
