SSHM, don’t you have more widows to harass?
To all cockleburians, SSHM is bought and paid for and will even harass widows (those who lost their husbands by tragic event) to get what he/she wants. Trash, Piece of trash. The plot thickens, your pocket weakens!
Sorry JD,
I don't see where the Senator is having a bad day. If anything, his true hypocritical colors are shining through.
I mean really . . . his pharmacy won't sell Plan B, but will hapily dispense Birth Control Pills. Anyone who's glossed over a pharmacology book will realize that Birth Control is the same thing as Plan B, just 1/4th of the dose.
OOPS! The moral high-horse appears to be stuck in the mud, Senator. No worries. I'm quite sure you can afford to pay someone to pull said moral high-horse from the mud and clean him off from all the money you have taken in from payday lenders and the tobacco industry.
Who says? Your own ethics report says, sir.
. . . and it only took you four years to become a good-ole-boy. A-maz-ing.

Hmm I hadn't considered a hijacker.
But I don't think anyone has hijacked zn and I am probably opening myself up to abuse when I say- love him or hate him Bryant is our Senator and we should respect that. I think it is no secret I am no fan of his politics and I express my disagreement with him on issues on a regular basis but would never speak to him in that manner.
Yeah, well, SSHM - and since you changed the subject here for some reason - that cortisone in the ointment I buy right off the shelf at CVS to stop the itching from mosquito bites contains basically the same stuff that has Barry Bonds looking at a possible 10 years prison sentence. It's not what it IS that causes problems with the law or with a man's conscience. It's what it's PURPOSE is.
(By the way, SSHM, I favor Plan B, but Sen. Bryant is an INDEPENDENT PHARMACIST, and I would hope whether to dispense it or not remains HIS CHOICE, not the GOVERNMENT's.)
Apples to Oranges JD, Apples to Oranges.
The cortisone in that powder is in the wrong form to achieve the same result that Barry Bonds obtained via an injection.
The birth control pill is in the right form, when taken in elevated doses, to achieve the desired result without the need for reformulation.

Well, if that's the case, SSHM, why don't they just tell women who want a morning-after effect to take FOUR BIRTH CONTROL PILLS and call me Monday?
SSHM, dosages do, indeed, matter, as do formulations. It's like Xanax. The small dosages are great as anti-anxiety aids, and a fella can even take a couple of those to get through a presentation to a couple of hundred people without suffering ill effects. But those larger doses - well, if you take a couple of those little puppies, it's a great SEDATIVE. Doctors and pharmacists don't really want you taking Xanax as a sedative, since there are things that aren't nearly as addictive to use for that purpose.
The purpose of the birth control pill and Plan B are different, just as the purpose of the cortisone in that over-the-counter ointment is different from the purpose of that injectible stuff people use to bulk up. Different purpose, different formulation. IT'S NOT AN APPLES TO APPLES COMPARISON.
I'm reminded here of the story of the lady who walked into a pharmacy one day and said to the pharmacist, "I need some arsenic."
He was about to point out the D-Con rat poison to her, but something about her attitude made him stop and ask, "Ma'am, do you have a problem with rats?"
"No," she said,"not rats. RAT. Just one. I caught my husband cheating on me, and I want to give him arsenic in his dinner tonight."
The pharmacist was stunned.
"Ma'am, I can't sell you arsenic to kill your husband," he said "I don't care if he is cheating on you."
At that point, the woman pulled a photograph from her purse showing her husband in a very compromising position with that same pharmacist's wife. He took the photo, looked at it carefully, then said:
"Here ya go, ma'am. You should have told me you have a prescription?"
I think it was Yankeefan who started this sorry excuse for a thread. Without a doubt everybody has now been thoroughly insulted - even the late Strom Thurmond. However, I would like to thank Waldrep for the compost about MacKay's party allegiance and thank Yankee fan for adding a little water here on the cocklebur. During my morning walk, MacKay signs appear to be popping up and blooming everywhere like daffodils in the spring. Just keep the negativity coming. As evidenced last Tuesday, the voters have had a belly full of negativity on Council. As long as Mackay stays on the high road, he should reap the benefits next Tuesday. And my guess is that Bob's negative Obama/Clinton postcard might just be the benediction of his rather forgettable politcal career.
Is it true that Raymond Mackay has ONLY contributed to Democratic candidates since 2000? Has Mr. Mackay lost his mind and actually believes that he will fool the true Republicans in Anderson? He should be charged with FRAUD. We don't want you in the Republican Party Mr. Mackay. Please pick up the remains of Michael Thompson, Bill McAbee and Larry Greer who are RINOs as you are and move your camp to the Democrats side. Are you ashamed to run and be associated with your Democratic Party?
prevail, according to the records, Mackay was paid by the county for legal services, but the account he was paid from was the administrator's legal account. Mr. Prestonuses a variety of attorneys, including Nancy Bloodgood from Charleston, who represents the county on personnel matters, and who has also issued threatening letters to various individulas, including Cindy Wilson, for things said about Mr. Preston.He used Ron Moody,of Greenville, in his recent writ of mandamus lawsuit, and the county also uses a service called prepaid legal services, whose main purpose appears to be to settle sexual harassment lawsuits against the county and its various employees.
One of the more remarkable occurrences in the recent priomary season was the fact that Mr. Wilson distributed thousands upon thousands of dollars that he said came from his own pocket, on candidiates such as Hooper, Mackay, and Greer, while at the same time, holding out his hand for contributions from his supporters. Incredibly, he received almost fifty thousand dollars in contributions. Those folks are a lot different than me. If I knew he had enough money to finance three other candidates, he wouldn't have gotten a dime from me.
One of those donating a thousand dollars to Wilson was Amy Plummer, who during the same period, sought hardship consideration for her children to attend band camp, citing a house fire several months ago, as her reason. These kinds of circumstances raise real questions about how this money is being raised and reported. In old timey Chicago, Ron Wilson's actions, as well as Amy Plummers, would have been described with one word . . .bagman.
Prevail . . .
Fair and balanced, please. "Flip-Flop" Waldrep has ACTUALLY BEEN a DEMOCRAT. You can't say the same about Raymond MacKay. Again, if this is the ONLY issue you can fling at Raymond, it's pretty sad. Oh, and someone needs to wake up Rip van Waldrep. The ghost of elections past (Mullinax) is following him around in this election.
Some things just don't work in a run-off. Hit pieces are just one of those things. You and your multiple aliases need to focus on DAMAGE CONTROL and not on HIT PIECES. People are over the mud-slinging and the infighting. Promoting it, and having the candidate ENDORSE it . . .
Might as well have just shot yourself in the foot. It would have been cheaper.

You shouldn't speak on matters for which you know nothing. It's also pretty sad when you have to resort to besmirching a private citizen and HER CHILDREN. Oh well . . .

I'm with you JD. Bad day or not, Sen. Bryant is experienced and politic enough not to make those kinds of statements.
Lee, I used to think Bob Waldrep might be a man of integrity, but seeing this attack flier killed the last wisp of illusion I had about that. Bob Waldrep has probably lost count of how many times he's switched parties. He was a Democrat, then a Republican. He couldn't get elected that way so he sold out his party and became a Democrat. He did that for a while, knocked off a Democratic State Senator in a Democratic Primary, won the general election as a Democrat the same year Bill Clinton was running for President, stayed a Democrat for a little while longer and acted like one, then he decided it was more popular to be a Republican, so he switched parties AGAIN. Honestly, the only thing consistent about Bob Waldrep's political career is Bob Waldrep firs. That, and he tends to stab those who helped him succeed in the back. First the early Republican Party in Anderson County (and they could have used the help, it wasnt easy in those days) then the Democrats, after they elected him in their primary. I don't know the history perfectly, but I may have missed a couple of other switches he's made. Bottom line: you can't ever know what he really stands for, and you can't trust him. Waldrep has to be the biggest hypocrite imaginable to send out a piece like this. How many times has he voted Democrat or been a Democrat? What a dishonest jerk.
I and many other Republicans 'used' to be Democrats but we finally realized that the Democrats were out of control and going against our basic beliefs, and they have only gone further to the left in recent months. Who is their nominee for president? Of course, it's Barack Hussein Obama, the number one liberal by the way he voted in 2007. Not just a liberal, but the MOST liberal in Washington, and this is the one Mr. Mackay is pledged to support. Not this Republican. You have not fooled me Mr. Mackay!
More NEWS: Rick Driver has just announced that Mr. Mackay refused the invitation to come on the program and debate Bob Waldrep, who accepted the invitation. Any of you want more proof? Mr. Mackay might as well pick up his signs and bow out like Mr. Thompson did. Save some face Mr. Mackay.
Go to http://www.followthemoney.org, type in Raymond e. MacKay and it will tell you who he gave money too. It is obvious that he has an affection for democrat candidates. He gave $1,000.00 to Jim Hodges!
This is further proof that Mr. MacKay has not been very truthful. Why say you are something you are not, when it can be refuted?
Democrats need to stay in the democratic party, and republicans in the republican party. Lying to achieve political gain is not what we need.
Ok ... so Raymond supposedly declined a debate. We need another debate now because why? Only those that trail push for and agree to a debate at this late juncture. Especially those that need to conduct a round of damage control after an ill-fated mailing.
