PEE DEE DEMOCRAT LITERALLY “ASKS FOR IT”
Austin Smith, a Democratic nominee for a Florence County seat in the S.C. House of Representatives, has been arrested for the second time this year on alcohol-related charges. Smith, 21, was busted for public drunkenness earlier this week according to SCNow.com.
Oddly enough, Smith’s arrest appears to have been self-induced. Specifically he is alleged to have approached Florence, S.C. police and Florence County Sheriff’s deputies (who were at the “Taboo” night club responding to a separate incident) and asked them to give him a field sobriety test.
The copes initially refused, at which point Smith insisted on the grounds that he “paid their salary.”
Needless to say, at that point he got his wish.
Additionally, in the police cruiser on the way to being booked at the Florence County Detention Center, Smith is said to have told deputies that he had been drinking heavily for twelve hours straight as part of his “typical routine for Thursday.”
Sounds like a typical South Carolina lawmaker to us … (especially S.C. Rep. Bill Sandifer).
Three months ago, this website broke the news of Smith’s previous arrest on charges of underage drinking (he was 20 years old at the time) and interfering with a police investigation. Shortly after that arrest, Smith went on a local television station and admitted being an alcoholic.
“This is not, you know, a one time, you know, incident, unfortunately, with alcohol,” Smith told reporter John Sweeney of SCNow.com. “This is the first time obviously involving the police, but, you know … obviously there’s things I have to deal with with a counselor.”
“I still think I have a lot to offer the people of the sixty-third district,” Smith maintained, vowing to make alcohol awareness a centerpiece of his campaign moving forward.
Looks like he’s kept his word on that score … although not in a way that’s likely to earn him any votes.
UPDATE: According to SCNow.com, Smith has given up his State House bid … sort of.

This kid’s parents need to get him some help.
It’s a good thing stupidity isn’t a crime!
SC would need a whole new approach to corrections if it was…
Looks like the kid is a little light in the loafers… Best thing for this kid would be a little time at CCI, he’d leave bow legged and permanently bent over…one last thought is it me or does he have the prettiest lips for a boy?
Who notices that?
Somebody should tell the kid the saying “there’s no such thing as bad press” is not really an absolute.
Who volunteers a field sobriety test on themselves?
Somebody, please send this kid to Alcoholics Anonymous. Better yet, somebody DRIVE him there.
This is just an Example of what an Ignorant MoFo FITS is…
Did any of you Brain-Dead Imbeciles see Romney at the Al Smith Dinner…????
WOW-WOW-WOW…He blew your Dumb@$$#$ and Obama OUT THE WATER…
FITS is quick w/ Buck-Tooth Guffaws over those Piece of $#!* political hack so-called “comedians” on Comedy Central…
But Romeny was really FUNNY…and he may have won the Election just on that performance…
You can D@*n sure tell when Romney knocks it out the park…FITS plays his Ignornat act…
And I can understand why that Listless, No-Talent MoFo is staying away from the Al Smith material and Romney…
Romeny was GREAT…and Obama looked BAD BAD BAD…and mad…
Not saying it’s Over yet..but It D@*n sure is close to it…
From a House candidate busted for public drunkenness to Romney at the Al Smith dinner. That’s about as big a stretch as from Romney’s tax plan to his promise to cut the deficit.
Bone: Thanks for making my point you Stupid Some Beech…
The Most Important Election in the last 30 years is RAGING, in the middle of a MAJOR Shift…and this ‘POLITICAL’ Sight, and its Idiot Founder, is posting about some Preppy Cul-d-sac liberal (like him) getting arested…
Wake that Dumb@$$ up..if he wants to play pundit, he needs to get his head out his @$$…
Romney BURIED Obama last Night…and this ignorant MoFo is playing tiddly-wins…
You’re the ignorant “MoFo”, Big T(urd).
Looks like you and FITS runnin’ scared…trying to divert attention from how Stupid you are…
Your Silence speaks Volumes…
This boy don’t need to deal with this with a counselor.
He needs some extra long term in-patient treatment somewhere.
I hope his parents still have them on their insurance.
He doesn’t work, does he?
His liver works hard, that’s for sure.
Prolly one of the top hundred hardest working livers in SC politics…..
Nice eyebrows for a dyke…
He needs to spend some time in a penal facility becoming a penile facility to scare the fukkity-fuck out of him. And for him to get gang-raped. Then he’ll realize there’s more to life than drinking and being a Democrat.
I’m not implying that this guy probably drinks too much, butit may be true that he considers the corkscrew the world’s finest precision instrument.
But then, he should have read the book: “How to Strengthen Your Character Without Actually Going to Jail”.
Is this the chick dating the State Treasurer?
This is obviously some form of mental illness. He needs some help.
Why is FITS gone DARK on the Presidential Election…
I think we ALL know why…Hahahhaaha…
Election….smelection.
Still aways away…..
How ’bout a college footbal post???
What’s that I hear?
Oh yeah… FLORIDA JUST SCORED AGAIN!!
this guy is a clown
looks and acts like FITS both socially and party ID
He is J Claytor Arrants reincarnated as a Justin Beiber lookalike.
Pee Dee knows how to produce outstanding libturd candidates. First it was look at the porn Alvin and now sweet lips Austin blowing the breathalizer.
