We know, we know … we couldn’t believe it either.
South Carolina’s so-called “business community” actually has one leader who isn’t bowing before the altar of big government and “schlobbing commie knob” like those socialist sycophants over at the S.C. Chamber of Commerce. His name? Lewis Gossett, head of the S.C. Manufacturers’ Alliance.
For whatever reason – and yes, we’re a little bit afraid to ask – Gossett’s Facebook updates have become the lovely Mrs. Sic‘s primary source of political wisdom (you know, since she doesn’t read FITS).
Anyway, here’s Gossett’s latest missive:
Cash for clunkers — another great idea. Take my tax money and help other people buy cars. Here’s a thought — let me keep more of my own money, and i might decide to buy a car on my own — when I can afford it. I know. These are radical thoughts.
Indeed they are, Mr. Gossett. Indeed they are.
Of course try telling that to the rest of South Carolina’s “business community.”

He has beefed up since Iron Eagle. But he did kick ass in that movie!

Wow, he had that skin pigmentation bleaching thing like Michael Jackson it appears.
Interesting though. You don’t see too many big Hollywood stars who are right wingers.

From a lean mean fighting machine in Officer and a Gentleman to a fatass white blowhard. The more things change, the more things change.

if my math is correct the Cash for Clunkers program cost each taxpayer something like $7.89. fully funded to it’s $3 billion, the number goes up to $23.67 per taxpayer.
while no one likes the idea of the tax man’s hand in your pocket, GM stock is up and more cars were sold in July than all of the preceding 6 months.
also, lay off the carbs, chubby.
