I live in the 1st District...
...and I'm supporting 1st Congressional District candidate Linda Ketner.
Please head over to XARK to read about her opponent, Henry Brown - and a recent article in The State. Here' a bit of what XARKer Dan Conover had to say:
The facts in the story are enough to make any fair-minded person cringe: Our Congressman set a national forest on fire by doing a lousy job of controlling a controlled burn on some of his rural property; when he couldn't get the fine reduced, he filed a frivolous countersuit against the forest service for damages in an alleged incident years before; and by the time his case finally reached resolution, his $1,000 reduction wound up costing taxpayers about $100,000 in Forest Service staff time.
Boy, talk about needing a change. You can read more about it here at Daily Kos in the post Focus on...South Carolina!!!
(And I had one of those weird dinners too, Dan - at Circa 1886 - that was both hilarious and c-r-e-e-p-y. A friend, who invited me, not only have Henry Brown at the table, but also Arthur Ravanel. It was a pretty unusual evening...as one might imagine.)
