I've never been to South Carolina, but I've watched Strom Thurmond enough to know he was a proponent of states rights (segregation) and apparently, inbreeding... We got Governor Mark Sanford, still hanging on to his office in spite of all the reasons he should resign; we got Joe Wilson, a far right war monger whose student deferment got him out of the Vietnam war. Joe Wilson was criticized for shouting "you lie" at President Barack Obama during his speech to Congress, an extraordinary breach of decorum...these outbursts from backwater conservatives are typical of the old guard: Strom and Jesse Helms...here's some facts about SC that I think you should know before ya'll go there a visitin'....
