Several big stories broke late Friday and over the weekend in the S.C. political world, which is why before this week gets too hot and heavy with its own drama, we figured you might want to bring yourself up to speed on what you missed.
We know, we know … it’s an incredibly considerate gesture on our part.
Well, unless of course your name is Larry Grooms, James Barker, Jeffrey Sewell, Jim Rex or Bill Sandifer, in which case a different sort of gesture comes to mind.
Anyway, to recap …
*WHAT IS LARRY GROOMS SMOKING?
(put down the big government crack pipe, Senator …)
*MORE ON CLEMSON’S BUREAUCRATIC BOONDOGGLING
(you know, James Barker really shouldn’t e-mail …)
*SC HOTLINE SAYS UNCLE
(what can we say, we walk loudly AND swing a big stick around these parts …)
*BAD NEW … THREE MONTHS LATE
(failing schools is on the rise … err, “are” on the rise …)
*RACIST REP IS DOING SOME SOLICITING
(includes a sexy new Bill Sandifer pic, just for the ladies …)
*LOFTIS: SC’s CAPITAL CITY NEEDS “TURNAROUND SPECIALIST”
(if only we could get this guy to run for public office in SC …)
And those were just the headlines that appeared here on FITS, folks … to catch up on all the weekend clips you missed you’d have to be a subscriber to the FITS Blast, which pumps out a weekend recap of all the hottest S.C. political stories every Sunday.
