		<description>Rep. Gresham Barrett is a co-sponsor of the FairTax Act (HR-25), which would eliminate our income tax code and the IRS.  His background as a small business owner gives Rep. Barrett an important perspective on how our high income taxes, payroll taxes and tax compliance costs hurt the small business community.

Small businesses create more than 80% of all new jobs.  We need more of our members of Congress to join Rep. Barrett and get behind the FairTax plan!</description>

		<description>Mr. Beardon,

Your statement is inaccurate.

Nikki Haley currently pays Starboard Communications and Wesley Donehue to manage her political destiny.

Viewpolitik, LLC, which is FITS parent company, did briefly fill in as a consultant to her last year during the thick of the presidential race, which you can read about over on the State Ethics Commission web site.

My website calls it like it is, and truth be told I&#039;ve heard Rep. Haley wasn&#039;t 100% pleased with the last article that we published about her.

To which we can only say &quot;C&#039;est la vie.&quot; 

-Will Folks

P.S. - Don&#039;t you have a pretty important job you should be doing right about now?</description>

		<description>Sic:
it&#039;s good to hear you&#039;re beginning to return to your senses about Gresham.  although you&#039;re not quite there yet, and you&#039;re making barrett work a little harder and sharpen his sword, HE IS THE GUY TO REFORM SOUTH CAROLINA.</description>

		<description>Lou,

What in the world are you talking about?  Did Barrett also send you the Area 54 files on the aliens, and the super-secret files on the JFK asasination?

Sounds like you need to get on the bus to the looney bin.

		<description>I happen to know Gresham Barrett does not always tell the truth. If he has a problem with this entry, bring it on Congressman....
I have this problem you see, it&#039;s called a fraudulent Inspector General report, and the rough draft of the Deputy Chief Council for External relations letter, came straight from Gresham Barrett&#039;s office. It&#039;s even stamped received and the date is plain as day.

So short bus, long bus, yellow bus, white bus, it doesn&#039;t matter.

Barrett got off the bus.</description>

		<description>Sic,

Remind me again what qualifies Gresham Barrett for the short bus as you say?

Is it has 5 years of actually US Army service?  No, no that must not be it.  That is honorable and speaks highly of his intelligence.  It must be his Citadel degree.  Oh wait, that would mean he is intelligent enough to have earned a college degree from a character building institution.  Is it his experience with his family&#039;s small business furniture store prior to his political service??  No, that would make him identify with and understand the very statements you critize above.

I&#039;ve got it.  It must be his committment to new, cutting-edge energy solutions.  Oh wait, that would actually put him wayyyyyy ahead of conventional thinking.  It must be his defense of traditional conservative social believes such as those of favoring life and the right of private citizens to own guns.  No, no.  Those are well-reasoned and well-respected positions.

It hit me.  He must ride in the front row of the short bus to his Congressional meetings in DC as he does serve on the House Committe on the Budget, Committee on Financial Affairs, Committee on Foreign Affairs, and Committee on Standards of Official Conduct.  No.  Surely you must prove your are not mentally retarded to qualify for Congress and sit on those prestigious committees.

It must be his commitment to his family and personal morals when many of his fellow politicians are out running around on their significant others and taking questionable donations.  

Oh well...who knows, Sic.  

It&#039;s hard to figure out just what goes on in that head of yours.</description>
