For those of you who missed it, former Florence Morning News reporter John Sweeney landed smack dab in the middle of a major controversy on the way out of his old job.

Barely a week on his new job – as district flack for U.S. Rep. Tom Rice (RINO-S.C.) – Sweeney has landed in another (albeit smaller) controversy.

What did he do? According to social media posts obtained by Media Bistro’s Fishbowl DC, Sweeney invoked the famous “Schweddy Balls” skit from Saturday Night Live as part of a harangue against National Public Radio.

Um, it’s “Schweddy” dude. As in “Pete Schweddy.”

Unfamiliar with this skit? Enjoy …

Obviously this website is no fan of state-supported media, but as we’ve noted previously it is low-hanging fruit (or balls in this case). What do we mean by that? Easy: It is precisely the sort of thing “Republicans in Name Only” like Rice enjoy pointing to in an effort to prove there is something – anything – government spends money on that they find objectionable.

As much as I would like this to be true 1. People don’t use their real name in porn, so you’d have to provide his stage name and 2. Sweeney isn’t old enough to have done porn decades ago.

These comments are puerile. Or asinine. Or sophomoric.
Take your pick.
I had campaign dealings with John Sweeney and he was the real deal. A fine, young political reporter – the only full-time one in SC-7. I predict he’ll be an equally fine public servant.

How about,’juvenile’,while you’re at it ? And then you go name-dropping,’John Sweeney’,as in,who the fuck cares. If he’s that fine,let him get down on his knees, and prove the excellence of his servitude Guess who I saw,43 years ago,tonight,son:

Maybe you need a good butt whippin’,and then a deep poking.

Sweeney is alright. Rice still sucks, so I don’t really envy “The Bloodhound of Justice” for his new job.
