Congratulations! You are a Great American!

You are hereby awarded The Order of the Ham Sandwich! As the first recipient of this prestigious award BIN News Editorial Staff will pay off the mortgage on your home, pay the college tuition of your children (as long as they go to SC schools), buy you 2 new BMWs as long as they are made in SC and ask sic(k) willie to get you a date with his heartthrob, Ms. Payne. No idea if she will accept, but the way sic(k) willie has been pimping her, you may have a shot. Sorry, Ms. Payne. You asked for it by appearing on this pathetic porn site.

I left out the other memebers of the “Barnwell Ring” as it was not required to draw the needed parallel. Quite frankly, it isn’t the legislature that needs reform – it is the electorate that continues to send these folks back to Columbia year in and year out. If you were a student of history, you would know this. You would know that in 1949, V.O. Key spelled out what the “Barnwell Ring” was. In addition, V.O. Key also asserted that South Carolinians were reluctant to concede power to be properly governed (i.e., opposed to a strong and centralized executive). Key also noted, that if South Carolinians were to be a tad more “adventuresome” with their government, South Carolina could develop a responsible form of cabinet government.

V.O. Key put these thoughts together in a book entitled: Southern Politics in State and Nation. The year of publication: 1949. When did South Carolina see it’s first stabs at cabinet-style government: Early 1990s.

You can run around and stomp your feet and scream “transparent and open government” at the top of your lungs, but it won’t make a bit of difference. History is on our side in this matter.

You can’t reform the electors as they were charged with a duty from the electorate. By virtue of the fact that many, if not ALL of the electors return, year in and year out, might I suggest you take your LBJ-esque “War For Transparent and Open Government” elsewhere?

PS – I’ll take you to task on Southern Politics any day of the week.

GO COCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After reading your latest rant the only thing that comes to mine is that you seriously need a colonoscopy or at least a good very warm saltwater enema.

Seriously dude. You are full of yourself. You need to get cleaned out and get on a healthy diet. Get more sleep. Cut back on the bad stuff.

P.S. BIN News has never threatened. Our staff cannot be responsible for your paranoia. Look elsewhere for those who make threats. We just out your scams.

You left out Edgar Brown, Marion Gressette and Rembert Dennis. Also, check out that Jean Toal humble disciple Alex Sanders in his interview by Brad Warthan when he said the better system of selecting judges was in the back rooms by the aforementioned icons. The State, Warthan blog, April, 2007. What an idiot. But, then, Queen Jean saved his law school. Go on, Willie. Transparency is the only way to bring honesty to these hacks and Blarr wannabes. I’ll go toe to toe with you, SSHM and BIN, on SC political history on this subject. Let’s bring in – discuss – Jimmy Byrnes with his Baruch connections. I’ll even spot you Walter Edgar. Honesty is going to win eventually, clowns.

You up, Mr. Speaker?
