"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

What a POS. The question is - will the citizens of SC have the fortitude to vote A Washington 20-year Insider out of office?

I suppose if he were on fire, I would piss on him, if somewhat reluctantly. So, there's that.
I wouldn't piss in his ass if guts were on fire.

It is my policy to never donate money to any politicians. I don't feel I will get anything back.
I don't understand why anyone would donate to a politician.
Does anybody truly believe the money they give to a politician will be used in a useful manner?

That is a good point. George has enough money to actually have a big impact on these politicians. The amount of money I am capable of donating is inconsequential to most politicians. Which in a way is a sad commentary becuase it shows how rich people have the ability to influence politicians and the average person does not.

Giving money to a politician is about as responsible as giving a case of liquor to a recovering alcoholic. Unless I have enough money that I can buy and own them it’s a bad idea.
It’s something I’ll never ever do.

Inasmuch as he doesn't deserve to be in his position (I even refuse to acknowledge it) - anyone else would be worse. Impeaching would be satisfying to Repubs for the same reason it was for the Dems on Trump - but it wouldn't accomplish anything. Be careful for what you wish for. The second banana Kameltoe would be worse for us. It's gonna be a long four years.

The last time I gave to a politician was in the California governor recall election of 2003 to a conservative Tom McClintock. Unfortunately, Arnold Schwarzenneger won.
I'll donate again today to Larry Elder. But I heard the Democrat voting machine is in play already. One guy was caught having 300 recall ballots in a felon's car. The only reason he was caught was he was passed out and he had weapons and narcotics. He was also wanted for forgery crimes.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

"In the United States Senate, South Carolina's Lindsey Graham has earned a reputation as a conservative, a problem-solver, and a leader who gets things done. He is a great friend to our men and women serving in uniform, a respected voice on national security matters, a leading advocate for cutting the out-of-control spending in Washington, and a champion for confirming conservative judges."
