South Carolina Gets What It Deserves

Now it's official.  Fiction is dead, bumped off by an implausible, bizarre reality --  South Carolina has welcomed back disgraced former Governor Mark Sanford, the "Appalachian Trail hiker".

South Carolina is officially the stupidest state in the nation.

It's never been enough for South Carolina to be merely an ultra-conservative, deep red state.  They insist on being gung-ho Right-tardo to the max!  It's the state that inflicted regressives like Jim DeMint, Nikki Haley, and Joe "You Lie!" Wilson upon the rest of us.  It's home to waffling weasel Lindsey Graham.  It's where the state university's athletes are commonly known as "Cocks".  It's where racism still runs so deep they insist to this day on flying the Confederate flag at the statehouse.

Now it's where Mark Sanford is politically reborn.  It's not so much that he's a philanderer, although that's hardly admirable.  It's just that he's such a slimy opportunist.  But it seems that's just what the folks in his Congressional district like.

Stupid fucking Palmetto bugs!  They get what they deserve.
