JAY LUCAS MAKES STAFF MOVES …

By FITSNEWS  ||  Newly elected S.C. Speaker of the House Jay Lucas has been busy assembling his team in anticipation of next month’s legislative session.

According to our sources, Lucas has named former House judiciary committee staffer Patrick Dennis as his new chief of staff.  Meanwhile, he’s appointed Caroline Delleney – daughter of S.C. Rep. Greg Delleney – as his new spokeswoman.

Delleney and S.C. Rep. Gary Simrill have emerged as two of Lucas’ early top lieutenants – advising the new Speaker on matters of policy and helping build support within the chamber for his initiatives.

Dennis replaces Brad Wright, while Delleney replaces Greg Foster – both of whom were tapped for their positions by former S.C. Speaker of the House Bobby Harrell.

The one is the middle is a WASP Cockroach

The one on the right is a run of the mill Cockroach who is trying to determine whether the other two Cockroaches want either a foot long or a 6″ meatball sub

As passed on to me, an unedited

——————————————–

At Heathrow Airport in England. A 300-foot red carpet was stretched out to Air Force One and President Bush strode to a warm but dignified handshake from Queen Elizabeth II. They rode in a silver 1934 Bentley to the edge of central London where they boarded an open 17th century coach hitched to six magnificent white horses.

As they rode toward Buckingham Palace, each looking to their side and waving to the thousands of cheering Britons lining the streets, all was going well. This was indeed a glorious display of pageantry and dignity.

Suddenly the scene was shattered when the right rear horse let rip the most horrendous, earth-shattering, eye-smarting blast of flatulence, and the coach immediately filled with noxious fumes.

Uncomfortable, but maintaining control, the two dignitaries did their best to ignore the whole incident, but then the Queen decided that was a ridiculous manner with which to handle a most embarrassing situation.

She turned to Mr. Bush and explained, “Mr. President, please accept my regrets. I’m sure you understand that there are some things even a Queen cannot control.”

George W., ever the Texas intellectual and gentleman, replied, “Your Majesty, please don’t give the matter another thought. You know, if you hadn’t said something
I would have assumed it was one of the horses.”
