SECOND-TERM STATE LAWMAKER DISMISSES SPECULATION, THOUGH … 

|| By FITSNEWS ||  S.C. Rep. Kirkman Finlay is being touted as a possible candidate for governor of South Carolina in 2018.  In fact, a group of influential Midlands, S.C.-area business leaders are already urging the second-term lawmaker to start laying the groundwork for a possible statewide bid.

Several of these business leaders spoke with FITS following a fundraiser for Finlay in downtown Columbia, S.C. this week.

“He’s a conservative who keeps winning a swing district, a guy with substantive bills on hot button issues,” one told us.

True … and true.

But the business leaders said there’s another reason they like Finlay …

“He can self-fund,” one said, referring to Finlay’s vast personal fortune.

After running unsuccessfully for mayor of Columbia, S.C. in 2010 (a vote a lot of people wish they had back), Finlay has won the competitive S.C. House District 75 in back-to-back elections – fending off well-funded challenges from liberal trial lawyer Joe McCulloch.

He’s proven he can take a punch, too, as McCulloch ran one of the nastiest races in recent memory last election cycle.

We asked Finlay at his fundraiser whether he knew some of his donors were pushing him in the statewide direction.

“Come on,” he said, dismissing the speculation. “Are you kidding me?”

Finlay’s drawbacks?  For whatever reason, some people simply do not like him …

“He’s abrasive,” a lobbyist attending another downtown Columbia, S.C. legislative reception told FITS this week.  “He is the anti-compassionate conservative.”

That’s true … however our sense is Finlay’s brusque demeanor would play well if it was consistently channeled into taxpayer advocacy.  Speaking of which, sources tell FITS Finlay is about to embark on a major effort to cut government spending as part of his role on a new S.C. House oversight committee.

We’ll be keeping an eye on his efforts there … as well as any moves he makes toward the statewide stage.

Who else may be eying a 2018 bid?  Obviously it’s early in the process, but former S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC) director Catherine Templeton‘s name is all over the place … as are the names of U.S. Rep. Mick Mulvaney and S.C. Senator Tom Davis.

And of course there’s the speculation surrounding former two-term governor Mark Sanford … who has $1 million sitting in a state account.

But if FITS is perceived to have ANYTHING to do w/ your campaign…you’re immediately tainted and un-electable…LMAO…

And one more thing. Why can’t she ACT like a dignified Governor. Carroll Campbell would have never held a press conference and attacked Bryan White or any legislator like she just did. Campbell would not have embarrassed himself of the legislator in that manner. Campbell would have ripped his head off in private, but it would be in private. Instead Haley lowers the dignity of the office of Gov by singling out just one House member. It just looks like a silly temper tantrum from a spoiled 8 year old.

Finally, a well-deserved recognition of a true conservative by Fits. Unlike all the recent glowing praise heaped on our lord and savior, Curtis Loftis, this article gives credence (and a possible sales segue attempt to lure a campaign advertising buy on Fits?) to someone who truly deserves it. I’m not saying Finlay is electable statewide (seriously, lose the beard and gut and you may get some Greenville votes, but you’ve gotta don the seersucker for the low country), but his rhetoric matches his record. This guy is a smooth operator and is respectful to all parties – something that can’t be said of any of our other statewide office holders. I say run, Finlay. I can support this.

Love February 27, 2015 at 5:50 am

Fits does not mention Curtis Loftis in the article! Is the love affair over,Fits? Loftis does anything and everything to put himself in front of the people of SC and you have done the same. What happened? Does he pay you with funds from the 529 plan, the many funds in the STO , The Saluda Charitable Foundation or his personal funds? Transparency would be nice here…

Reply
BK February 27, 2015 at 2:09 pm

I think you may have misread my comment. I pointed out that this is the first Fits article that wasn’t gushing over our lord and savior, Curtis Loftis. Do you not worship him? You should. Like, pronto. I’m not sure what a 529 plan is, but if it means worshipping the treasurer, you better believe I do. Because Curtis Loftis is my own personal Jim Caviezel.

Fan February 27, 2015 at 3:51 pm

Wonder why Fits does not mention the web site “Curtis Loftis for Governer” Yes, governer not governor. Should learn how to spell it before running for it!! Fits has been gushing over Loftis until 2 days ago. Where is Loftis and his many alter egos? They come fast and quick when his name was mentioned. Could it be that Loftis’s shit is about to hit the fan?

Reply
Bill February 27, 2015 at 4:28 pm

i asked Loftis about this and I can assure you Loftis has nothing to do with this. This is an old trick. A hater plants a website seemingly connected to an official, then post crazy stuff on it, and uses it to harass the elected official.

Haters gonna hate. That’s what they due.

Fan February 27, 2015 at 6:23 pm

Where are, Jake,Rick,Mitch,Cliff, Sarge, Kev, Nick, Mark.. busy posting on Fits in the last two days? accusing the Media Co. paid operatives, the koch brothers of selling their soul and sleeping with Satan and urging the good folks of SC to “reject their filth before it is done to them and theirs” Where are they? Gone.. Why? Loftis’s attorney told him and his alter egos to FTU. The shit is coming..

Jake February 27, 2015 at 6:28 pm

Oh, Mr. BK and Mr. Fan (one and the same).

May God have mercy on your sad, lying, little soul. You are like a little girl screaming into the night. So sad.

Never February 27, 2015 at 7:03 pm

Oh, Jake .. Loftis will never be governor.. He has done nothing positive for the people of SC. He has insulted so many people, from members of his staff to intelligent, educated people who spent a good part of their life in public service. He has lost 200 million dollars from the retirees trust fund.. paid his friend million of dollars, settled a case from a STO’s staff in the United States District court. How much tax payers money has he wasted on that? He has pissed off so many people that he is not trusted and never will be.

Jake February 27, 2015 at 8:01 pm

Oh sad soul, what do you think about all day long? How to lie better? How to become more deceitful? How to twist reality so that you can cast your envy, greed and jealousy in a way that might make you feel like a real man?
Lying for a living will always keep you a sad soul, and not a man. Evidently, the small man, small penis thing has made you very, very sad. May the Lord have mercy on your soul.

Progress February 28, 2015 at 7:20 am

I do not have a small penis, I do not have a penis, period. I am not sad nor do I have a sad soul. I do not want to feel like a real man. I do not envy you for you are the one with the small penis, the sad soul, the greed and jealousy. Loftis has been getting medical attention for a long time, since he was a kid. Ask him about his doctor and the results from his many visits. Did it work? Rumors are the progress was very poor.

Jake February 28, 2015 at 7:35 am

“Satan, the deceiver of the whole world – he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.”[

You may worship the lie, the deception. Fallen angels were made eunuchs, and I suppose you may even be proud of that, but the judgement day waits for us all. Those proud of being among the fallen should fear that day.

idiot February 28, 2015 at 8:55 am

I have a vagina, you are a blooming psycho! Do you know what that means? A vagina? Your dad knows what that is , your mom does also. Ask your mom if she is a fallen angel made into an eunuch and post back when you have her answer. But go get help, mental help, while I wait for judgement day. Idiot!

Jake February 28, 2015 at 9:04 am

Or so you say. Who knows what you have, or for that matter who cares. One thing for sure is that you have a black soul, full of hate and envy and jealousy. Pray, dear child, pray for peace and that your soul is someday saved.

Gibson February 28, 2015 at 9:14 am

YOU must care! You spend a lot of time responding. You, God-fearing soul that you are, bring up the nasty talk about genitals. It makes you look like you have run out of the absurd religious references and now have to devolve to the obscene. Don’t you see how these two approaches are logically and morally inconsistent? Just what church do you attend that sanctions such remarks? You, son, have a real problem. Better either stop drinking or get back on your meds. If I were your lawyer and the investigators were getting close, I would tell you to STFU, fool.

Jake February 28, 2015 at 9:23 am

Some who, though created as good beings, freely chose evil, their sin being unforgivable, their soul being forfeit.

No religion sanctions bearing false witness, especially anonymously. Your deception is that of Lucifer, the greatest of the fallen angels, who once was brighter than the brightest star, then was cast from heaven by righteousness.

Those of us that have volunteered to fight evil on these blog sites have the time and determination to meet your lies with truth. The readers can make their judgements. They will note we do not call individuals out by name, bear false witness, distort or deceive so as to harm an individual. That is your realm, and it is evil. We only seek to point out the evil you spew in the form of hatred, greed, jealousy and envy.

Eunuch February 28, 2015 at 3:19 pm

Was that her answer? Please, go back to your mama and ask her if she is a fallen angel made into an eunuch and come back and post her answer. Till then, STFU

Stop bearing false witness. Stop worshiping false Gods.

Rebuke your masters. Return the 23 pieces of silver.

Reclaim your life from Satan and join God.

Repent

Jake February 28, 2015 at 1:11 pm

Curtis is the king of bearing false witness. Just look at all of his anonymous comments and the hilarious alias he uses on here.

jake February 28, 2015 at 1:13 pm

Oh poor soul.
Please repent. Choose God.

Oh poor Curtis. March and April are going to be difficult months for you with the Senate. Notice that ethics and CDV have died down. The desk is clearing off for a very lengthy and public conversation about your time in office.

Oh worshipper of lies and deception. Please repent. Find good and wholesome things to do!

Poor liar, poor liar. I do not spend much time proofing, as life is good, and time valuable. So I scribble words to your sad soul when I can. Your life’s work is lying and deception

Oh sad lying soul. I pity you.

Confused February 28, 2015 at 10:07 am

Jake, you are responding to Bill who carries your torch! Sure is confusing , so many alter egos. Bill does not have a sad soul. Do you mean it when you say that his life’s work is lying and deception? So confusing. No need to pity Bill.

jake February 28, 2015 at 10:09 am

By violating the virtue of truthfulness, a lie does real violence to another. It affects his ability to know, which is a condition of every judgment and decision. It contains the seed of discord and all consequent evils. Lying is destructive of society; it undermines trust among men and tears apart the fabric of social relationships.

You are an expert liar. I hope you are well paid.

Curtis Loftis February 28, 2015 at 1:17 pm

It’s hard to keep up with all my make believe friends. So many of them in my disproportionally large head.

Jake February 28, 2015 at 1:23 pm

Oh, bearer of false witness, please repent. Worshiping greed and even and your earthly master is sad, and the road to hell.

You are a child of God, just claim it.

Ask February 28, 2015 at 6:58 am

Oh no! Another conspiracy. How many are there? Please , ask Loftis about the Koch brothers, the media, the paid operatives, the haters… He is responsible for his own actions, the promises made and not kept. He is responsible for his lies and vile accusations. He is responsible for the pain and damages done to others. Didn’t he settle a case in federal court, in Sept 2014? How much did that cost the tax payer of this State? And more to come..

Dumb February 28, 2015 at 12:31 pm

The only “Bill’s” that Curtis knows both quit working for him. That would be his General Counsel and his only competent Chief of Staff. Bill = Curtis.

Luther describes this as meddling with the judgment and office of God, and pronouncing sentence and punishment with the most severe verdict. Without wielding the sword, the slanderer employs a poisonous tongue to the shame and hurt of your neighbor.

Yes, when one threatens another, say by a text message or email, then one can’t rely on the free speech privileges. It is a fatal flaw in the defence.

How do you threaten anonymous posters? Sounds like an empty threat to me. Now if Curtis wasn’t afraid to use his real name….

“Speaking falsely in any matter, lying, equivocating, and any way devising and designing to deceive our neighbor. 2. Speaking unjustly against our neighbor, to the prejudice of his reputation; and (which involves the guilty of both). 3. Bearing false witness against him, laying to his charge things that he knows not, either judicially, upon oath (by which the third commandment, and the sixth and eighth, as well as this, are broken), or extrajudicially, in common converse, slandering, backbiting, tale-bearing, aggravating what is done amiss and making it worse than it is, and any way endeavoring to raise our own reputation upon the ruin of our neighbor’s.”

Matthew Henry

Lying for a living is not profitable to you soul. Do not worry about disappointing your masters, they will find others that will take their trinkets.!

Curtis Loftis has been unable to purchase an manservant on Craigslist at this time. Evidently word got out that the whole master/servant thing is pretty abusive.

Jake February 28, 2015 at 1:10 pm

You should spend less time on craigslist and more time in church.
Repent, your evil ways will be forgiven if you stop bearing false witness, not reveling in greed and envy and jealousy.

Repent and live a life of love.

Choose Christ, not Satan.

Office February 28, 2015 at 2:21 pm

This is about the treasurer , a constitutional officer of our fine State who cannot tell the truth and spend so much time blogging on FITS. He cannot do his job because he is not able and most of his staff has left the sinking ship… He leaves his office so he can post on FITS and not be caught on a state computer. Does he claim personal leave, sick leave? . Does he get paid for the immense amount of time he spends out of the office posting on FITS? He must leave public life and go crawl with his bugs.

Deprive February 28, 2015 at 4:24 pm

Violence against women, assault charges, walking out of meetings, insulting and bullying people, being censured by the Investment Commission.. Loftis’s honor and good name has been taken away from him publicly. Nothing private here. All documented. No lies here. He is a scumbag. Period.

But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth.

Oh sad soul. You have devoted your life to this. Oh, you sad soul, bereft of the light that is offered to us all. Repent and choose Christ

Legacy February 28, 2015 at 4:58 pm

Is Loftis going to repent and choose Christ? Who cares? His job is to be treasurer of the state of SC and he sure is not doing it. Posting on FITS , exposing his mental instability and making a joke of the STO is a fact and that is going his legacy.

Jake February 28, 2015 at 5:28 pm

This is not about Loftis, this is about you. Try love, not hate. Try encouragement, not deception. Reject envy and jealousy.

You may feel worthless, pitiful, shunned, but worry not. The Lord can heal you.

Repent, and choose Christ. Reject Satan.

Failed legacy February 28, 2015 at 6:09 pm

His legacy will be “the big engine that couldn’t”. Loftis failed.

Jake February 27, 2015 at 9:08 pm

Oh pathetic one, oh sad soul of envy and jealousy. Why would you spend your life trying to dimmish one that has achieved success? Does it make you feel like a man? Does it make you feel stronger? Do you think you might have erections again?

Oh sad soul, please lift yourself from such a low life and seek fulfillment. Perhaps spend time with men living under the bridge and dream that you could one day be as interesting as they are.

Kev February 28, 2015 at 9:09 am

Why would anyone pay attention to a fake website saying Loftis is running for governor? Obviously, the website a tool for future deception and lies by the sad souls that post anonymously on a daily, hourly basis. They life’s work is deception, their stock in trade is the lie. They sell their souls for handful of coins. So sad.

Jake February 28, 2015 at 1:19 pm

Go away Kev, I’m Curtis’ newest and best make-believe friend! You quit after you got mad at him for staring at you while you were sleeping. Were you upset he was in your room?

Correction February 27, 2015 at 7:18 pm

Correction needed here. Loftis does anything and everything to put himself in front of the people of SC and Fits does the same. What happened?

How uncharacteristically intelligent of you to have chosen a deity of such worth. But please remember that Loftis would not cater to your envy, greed and jealousy. He would not allow you to lie and deceive. He would require honesty and integrity and respect for others. Perhaps you should aim for a deity more like you, say a copperhead snake.You would be embraced and you would be happy. You would be with your own kind.

Jake, I abandoned this thread 2 days ago. Wow! Looks like I really was onto something! Well, since you’re so fond of quoting scripture, particularly proverbs, I thought I’d share these with you:

Proverbs 21

2 A person may think their own ways are right,
but the Lord weighs the heart.

4 Haughty eyes and a proud heart—
the unplowed field of the wicked—produce sin.

7 The violence of the wicked will drag them away,
for they refuse to do what is right.

24 The proud and arrogant person—“Mocker” is his name—
behaves with insolent fury.

29 The wicked put up a bold front,
but the upright give thought to their ways.

Enjoy the reading!

I know kirkman, hes a great policy maker but a horrible politician. he would never be able to fund raise if he didnt already have the money himself. he just doesnt play nice…..that being said the governor doesnt have to play nice, so he might be a better governor that legislator

Great guy, good businessman, not a lawyer. Needs statewide name recognition. Would definitely be a formidable candidate. One I would gladly support. But we have to wait till 2018. We have a presidential election between now and then.

He’s a South Carolina Hampton. Of course he is rich. And with the former family newspaper in his back pocket.

Election 2018? … We are not amused. The infotainment values of promoting “candidates” more than three years out … Please …

Got any snooze about the latest IRS faux Paha? Like what’s in those 37,000 emails besides the usual inter-office dreck and drivel ? Is Michelle named yet?

Can y’all imagine what Kirkman and other legislators think when they read Curtis Loftis’ very colorful and flambouyant comments?

Lying is destructive of society; it undermines trust among men and tears apart the fabric of social relationships.

Please choose Christ over darkness.

How about when presidential contenders have their staff look into elected officials in the early primary states? He’s a joke!

Whoever slanders his neighbor secretly I will destroy. Whoever has a haughty look and an arrogant heart I will not endure.

I can promise they will not be calling him at 803-734-2131 to schedule an office visit. Any google search has links to his craziness on this website.

Brothers and Sisters in Christ are not fooled by your deception. You love of Satan does not fool the faithful.

Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

They won’t be emailing him at work to set up a meeting either. I guess curtis.loftis@sto.sc.gov won’t have too much email.

Oh how you work so hard to deceive. How your soul must ache. Put down the false idols and worship Christ. Throw away the hate, envy and jealousy, and love others as He loves you.

If they call his taxpayer funded cell phone at 803-240-4701 I believe he would be so happy because he’s getting less attention the Merrill and Grooms from the candidates.

Your lies will not matter to anyone except your fellow brothers in evil. You forfeit your soul for no reason other than you worship false Gods.

We are glad the help Mr. Loftis. We are pleased to point out the evil that attacks him because it is evil that attacks us all.

May I remind you what the Psalmist says: You sit and speak against your brother; you slander your own mother’s son.

I spent about 15 minutes reading some of the comments. I have several thoughts.
1. This is whack-job crazy.
2. The anti-Loftis people should be rounded up immediately and taken to the Mental Hospital. Seriously, their devotion to such a marginal activity is a sign of zealotry that is incomprehensible to a sane person.
3. The “jake” thing is an obvious “punking” of the Loftis-haters. I can’t decide if it is brilliant or stupid, but it definitely “punks” the haters and they don’t get it.
4. Everyone involved ought to take a shower, get a hot meal and a cold beer, and then give their computers to the local school before their blog addictions get any worse.

Substitute Loftis with: Romney; Bush; Haley; Walker; Palin; Cruz; Scott; DeMint; Reagan…etc….
That’s just what the Democrats to the people – and ideas- they hate….
When you are corrupt by definition, as the Democrat Party is: all you have is smear, bullies, lies and censorship…

Why are all y’all so obsessed with Curtis Loftis? Last time I checked, he’s run two statewide races and won them both. Quit the whining and run against him. Oh, and good luck with that! SC GOP voters are like lemmings. Just ask RQA.
