Cagney and Lacey in the SC Senate?
Deedee Vaughters and Katrina Shealy are running for state senate. Which one is Cagney and which one is Lacey? I don’t know, I never watched the show, but it brings to my mind an image of two ladies bustin’ down the door and kicking some butts. The point is these two ladies will shake up […]

His Superfluous Excellency
Power corrupts. And absolute power corrupts absolutely. South Carolina State Senate president pro tempore Glenn McConnell demonstrates this little maxim quite well. I heard it told back during the gubernatorial campaign that Senator Glenn McConnell had no interest in being Governor of South Carolina because he didn’t want to give up any power as Senate […]
Our Not-So-Conservative Budget
by Senator Tom Davis, used by permission. Originally published in The Sun News. You know it is early summer in the Palmetto State when our politicians start bragging about how conservative they’ve been with your tax dollars. You know the drill: The South Carolina General Assembly passes a budget larger than the previous year’s and […]
Introducing Palmetto Liberty PAC
