What do these have in common? Joey Preston had the vision and the leadership to make these County priorities, bring them forward, make them flourish for all to enjoy. Cindy Wilson and Bob Waldrep did not support any of the the above!

She can't help it. One of those rabble rousers who likes to cause trouble and beat dead horses. We'll see how wonderful any f those on her list are in January. I'll side with lee-cole on the wings of prayer.Super Taco is at 1019 Tiger Blvd Ste 120, Clemson, SC 29631(I cheated but the food is great is it's close to Anderson)-1-opinion
Why I'm confused. I thought free expression, debate and discussion were welcome on this blog. Apparently it is only if you agree with the you two.
Excuse me!
The questions was list 10 positive things about Anderson. I answered with MY ten, people and accomplishments. Get over it.
Be sure and brush up on your spanish when you go to Super Taco. It is authentic and good!
Actually this thread it was could Rick Driver say 10 positive things about Anderson. We welcome debate. Please try not to take yourself so seriously others do not.-1-opinion
In that case, the answer is NO!
I will definitely try Super Taco, thanks for the tip guys!
I am sure you are right! The facts are three of those listed are so good and effective for Anderson County they were voted right out of office! Please don't ever evaluate anyone for me!
No. Just good, effective people that are good for Anderson County.

I do believe he can easily find 10 nice things to say about Anderson. Anderson is a nice place. A place can not be held responsible for who moves here and how badly they behave. Why don't you call him and challenge him to do so. <g> It doesn't sound like much of a challenge to me. Perhaps if you ask Driver to come up with 10 nice things about Preston or other specific people that might present a challenge.

Why would I want to talk to a guy like him? I'd sooner get a rootcanal
Has Rick Driver said 10 postive things about Anderson yet????
Don't know, Andersonretro, because I almost never listen to that show. But I'm told he did mention in passing earlier this week something about Joey Preston being on his way. That's at least one positive thing. [image]-jdtippett
No! Rick Driver can't say ANYTHING positive. It goes against his nature.
Also, JD: Not everyone in AC thinks Preston leaving is a "positive" thing.
Sadly (for some) it is going to happen. Why do people feel the need to continue to hammer him? Many of us believe the court would have awarded Preston a higher severance package. Why roll the dice ?
Trust me I(you don't have to of course) if the in-coming council would have appointed Harvell or Jackie hunter or one of their other lackey cohorts they would have justified that move on the same basis - it' time to move on. What they don't like is that they got one-up'd ! Or as you put, they'd showed their cards.
By the way, I'm not a Joey "insider" despite what some on this blog try to make it out to be. I don't have any family working for the county. I've never made any money on real estate from Anderson County. No member of my family has either. Fact is, I PAY Anderosn County, through taxes, fees and other support. What I get in return is what other taxpayers get. I just happen to believe that despite some faults, Preston is a good man, a more than capable administrator who he has contributed mightily to Anderosn County. Plus, he's been a good citizen, helping with charities and other common good projects.
So, he has flaws. Will, twist my wiskers, who doesn't have flaws?
If there is a farewell party, I hope I can attend. I'll shake his hand, thank him for his service and wish him well. That's what good citizens do. Now, if he slips me a few thou...... just kidding ;-)
Calm down, Republikin. I was just playin' with Andersonretro, who seems to have some sort of odd obsession with Rick Driver. There's a lot of that going around, I hear.-jdtippett
I be calm. Sometimes I just don't know when you be play'n or hateful.
