[...] I wrote a while back that The Palmetto Scoop had obtained the official hit list of Gov. Mark Sanford. In hindsight, I guess I should have realized our list was bad when it included Megatron, Shockwave, Scorponok, Lord Zarak, Thunderwing and a bunch of other Transformers. Regardless, the real list was released today by the Columbia Free Times and it has been “all the rage” throughout the South Carolina blogosphere. It’s no secret that Sanford and the General Assembly don’t get along and several legislators and political consultants believe the governor — by proxy through the group South Carolinians for Responsible Government (SCRG) — targeted several GOP legislators in the 2006 elections. But, no one could produce a list or a plan of action. This time, SCRG appears to have taken a back seat to S.C. Club for Growth in trying to remake the General Assembly in the governor’s image, or as it’s phrased in a secret proposal to the group, “reshuffling the legislative deck.” [...]

I am pleased to see you mention the Governor Sanford “nonprofit “ financing scheme. South Carolina is a one party state, and nothing will be done about this back door financing of people, candidates and causes, unless people such as you speak up.

At least FIVE nonprofits have been set up to wash large amounts of special interest out of state cash, completely unregulated by the state, an completely outside the mantra of Governor Sanford…which used to be accountability and transparency and now it seems to be “ grab and hide ”.

Our government will never improve as long as Governor Sanford and cronies are beholding to rich fat cats from Boston, Vegas and Miami. We can only regain our government if Sanford discloses ALL the records of these five scandal ridden nonprofits. Only disclosure will restore honor to Governor Sanford.

Thanks again for your mention. I hope you will write more on this matter.

I hope Optimus wipes out Starscream once and for all. Kind of worried that he didn’t even make the list. That Decepticon’s whiny voice really irritates me. And worse, why did the new Transformers movie portray Megatron as a Starscream-styled fighter jet? Everybody knows Megatron was a handgun. Maybe the NRA needs some help to go beat up the Air Force. That’s what I think.
