COLUMBIA, S.C. – When things looked their darkest for Gov. Mark Sanford — when he was in danger of being impeached for running off to Argentina to see his mistress — his best insurance policy may well have been South Carolina's lieutenant governor, Andre Bauer. Lawmakers knew if they removed Sanford, they would end up with Bauer, a fiercely ambitious Republican with a reputation for reckless and immature behavior. Now Bauer has folks shaking their heads again, after he likened government assistance to the poor to feeding stray animals.
At a town hall meeting Thursday, Bauer, who is running for governor in his own right now that Sanford is term-limited, said: "My grandmother was not a highly educated woman, but she told me as a small child to quit feeding stray animals. You know why? Because they breed! You're facilitating the problem if you give an animal or a person ample food supply. They will reproduce, especially ones that don't think too much further than that."

what about the governor? you know the guy that was MIA and in another country. this guy is the reason that sanford is still governor. i remember living down there during my navy days. its about as "fixed" as it gets, makes ny look innocent. the biggest joke is they are so dumb and poor that most of them qualify for the same programs that he belittles ,yet they vote for a guy like this. the interview is hilarious, he got his "wisdom" from his grandmother that he admits was ignorant in the same sentance. and its true because when i lived down there the illiteracy rate in charleston county was the highest in the country! then idiots come here and justify it with "the democrats do the same thing so that makes it all right". thats the problem in a nut shell, half the people on both sides have to go and go quick or we are screwed. they can start with these two crooked jack asses in south carolina...people there can't read, eat right or have half of their teeth...lets compare them to stray animals and we actually pay these morons...oh yeah, great country!
