I visited the North Rim back in the early 80's. College buddy wanted to go see it after graduation. I'd dropped out a while before. Took some vacation from work.
It;s a really, really, REALLY big hole in the ground.
We stood there, and I thought, "Shit, this river has been here for like a million years. Kinda puts things in perspective."
I'd love to go back, and hang in the woods on the North Rim.
WRONG! We've got tons of bat shit crazy, spineless, politicians (Lindsey Graham!). Remember the "you LIE!" guy who was screaming at Obama in Congress? Yes, that's one of ours. Mick "stole an old man's money in SC" Mulvaney and Nikki "bless your heart" Haley all belong to the proud SC tradition of being crazy ass politicians who lie, cheat, and steal. I'm pretty sure we've got the only politician in the USA who beat a man almost to death with a cane, on the floor of the Senate. John C. Calhoun represent!! Woo hoo!
I am highly offended that you would say that Arrington was not loony! She was a total loon. For extra points, she was an incredibly sore loser, vowing to "come back, and whoop all y'all's asses." I'm paraphrasing, but that was the gist of her gracious concession speech.
We are NOT just boring and stupid and disease ridden. I'll have you know that we've got enough crazy for 2 states. Now, I will admit that we don't have too many bath salt fueled, face eating, episodes like Florida does, but if you read the police blotters from any of our local beaches, you will see that we've got a LOT of crazy drug addled, drunken behavior, to contend with.
I implore you not to dismiss a state's level of crazy, just because we're not flashy about it. We've got people arrested for doing meth, and having sex with their dog in the front yard at noon, just like all the other red states. We just don't like to brag about it, like Florida.
Myrtle Beach is the Miami of South Carolina...only it's full of Canadians, so they're polite when they try to kidnap and cannibalize you.
Jon Stewart used to thank South Carolina on the Daily Show for providing him with so much comedy fodder. He used to love to cover the one about a guy who was in love with a horse. He'd get out of jail, and go right back to sodomizing the poor horse. He was caught several times.
Kidding aside - there was a Hispanic woman on TV the other night because someone had broken into her mobile home, and stolen her daughter. The guy dropped the kid when they gave chase. The mother didn't speak English, and I was worried they will all be deported now.
Personally, I think the anti-immigrant hysteria deterring the undocumented from reporting crimes by felons -- and particularly, by bosses who cheat them -- is not a bug, but a feature, for Rethug small businessmen.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results. So it is with the madness of trickledown economics.
Lou Dobbs got caught with illegal immigrants on his horse farm, after he'd been railing for YEARS about the scourge of illegal immigrants. Donald Trump is the same way. They LOVE cheap labor, they just pretend they don't so they can rile up the rubes. Kind of the same way they pretend to embrace "family values" while they're out getting some strange, in an airport bathroom.
Idaho's Larry Craig, in the Twin Cities airport. But he wasn't the first.
I went to HS in Md. 1st., the Eastern Shore.
I'd moved on to college in Boston when Bob Bauman got arrested for soliciting sex. He was a rising star in what was then known as the New Right, the Reagan Counter-Revolution.
Where's the beauty in a truck body fee above ff the chassis, and tires that don't fit the wheel wells?
OK, sure, but where are you're weird criminals and bat-shit officials? Plenty of boring stupid, diseased places, you gotta have some sizzle.
Sure, Arrington knocked of Sanford, who then lost the seat to a Democrat.
But she doesn't seem that loony, just an average Trumpeter. Curiously, she won the nomination by the same pct. that Cunningham won the general, 50.6

He probably had some staffer fill it out, and nobody proofed it.
You really do need to spell the boss' name right, your whole organization looks kinda dumb.
Even by mouth-breathing Tea Party standards.

Well, I'd forgotten about Mulvaney. Graham only recently went totally batshit, but damn if he's not playin' some nice catch-up ball.
Haley is hard at work spending the political capital she got as a not-totally-unreasonable UN Ambassador. I'd question her buying choices.
Those two do have the potential to upset Florida. My money is on Graham, he'sin office.
Really hard to top that face eater, eh? But the guy screwing the dog has legs. Six to be exact!
I couldn't find that one, but here's real winner. Kidnapping not just for pedophilia and forced birth, but cannibalism too.
Maybe the Miami Herald is tired of their state's rep....

Ta, Liz.
Speaking from the future (relative to your non-comment), I hope you had a happy birthday!!
I did, thank you!

She is most definitely not a witch! No way, no sir. And she hates masturbation!
Well, "trickle-down" economics is actually the same theory as urination, and it has the same impact.
