Timmy Can’t Park (Again)

AND DIDN’T HE QUIT THIS JOB?

There’s nothing like “free parking …”

S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley’s ex-chief of staff Tim Pearson officially stepped down from his government post on October 12 – but that’s not
stopping him from availing himself of the taxpayer-funded perks associated with the governor’s office.

In fact Pearson – whose “adventures in parking” at the S.C. State House garage have become the stuff of (assholish) legend – is still parking his Jeep Grand Cherokee in this government-run facility.  And yes … he’s still parking like an asshole.

We’ve seen this before (here and here) but what gives?

Seriously … the taxpayers of South Carolina spent millions of dollars on security measures to make sure that only government employees with the property credentials had access to this garage.  What’s this dude still doing in here?

“Now Nikki is letting her campaign staff use free state parking,” one source remarked to us.  “For shame.”

Pearson, 30, served only twenty months in Haley’s administration – earning less than favorable reviews over that time from without (and within).   He parked a lot better than he governed, in other words.

He was replaced by former Deputy Attorney General Brian Stirling … who is parking … somewhere.

Neither can the driver whose Audi is on the left.

My guess is that the space between them is unassigned.

Much ado about nothing.

OGOB. Precisely and as usually the case.

And oh, my guess is that all three parking spaces are likely assigned to the Governor’s office. I further speculate that “The Founding Editor” probably knows the occupant of the left-hand space occupied by the Audi.

In fact, I’d be a bit surprised if the middle space is not assigned to the Governor-trix herself or her designee, thus, of no utility since she has a driver/security person who fetches her to and from.

Everybody take their cars and park on Big(o)T’s property. Let’s see how long it takes before Big(o)T calls the cops to enforce gubmint’s ability to tell you how to park.

He really didn’t mean to park in a government parking garage, he’s just so bad at parking that he missed where he meant to park by a few blocks.

He has a pulse, good enough to get a license in SC!

I know, NOBODY! I wish we had a “like” and “dislike” button on here. This and Smirks’ other comments on here thus far would get “likes” from me.

There seems to be a problem with brake dust on front wheels. This is due to excessive braking by a piss poor driver.
