At least it's not your Assistant Attorney General

  • 1 Comments

Ripped off from Talking Points Memo:

Two things you can say about your South Carolina conservatives: they know how to stand up to federal oppression and they they know how to party.

Back on Monday, former Republican state representative and now assistant Attorney General Roland Corning was on his lunch break when a police officer found him in his Ford Explorer in a Elmwood Cemetery with an 18 year old stripper from the Platinum Plus Gentlemen’s Club, a bag of sex toys and a few doses of Viagra.

It gets better…

Local police were apparently on the look out because the cemetery had become a local hotspot for trysts and illicit drugs.

When the Officer Michael Wines came up to see what was shaking, Corning sped off. But another cop soon stopped him and Wines caught up with them a few moments later. After Corning and the stripper gave conflicting stories about what they were doing in the cemetery, Wines proceeded to search the SUV and found Corning’s stash of sex toys and Viagra. To clear up any misunderstanding, Corning assured Wines he always kept them with him “just in case.”

Corning and the stripper were released without charges. But Corning turned out to be the source of his undoing. As Officer Wines was investigating the sex toy mystery, Corning volunteered that he worked at the Attorney General’s office and flashed his badge.

Well, it turned out Wines’ wife worked there too. And he called her to find out if Corning was legit.

But Wines’ wife didn’t leave it there. She contacted her supervisor who passed on the word to Attorney General Henry McMaster. McMaster apparently found out early Wednesday. And by the end of the day Corning’s employment at the AG’s office had come to an abrupt end.

The Attorney General of South Carolina (this guy’s boss) is most well-known outside Jesusland for trying to sue Craigslist for enabling solicitation of prostitutes.

And just to add my own original commentary to make this a real diary, how bad do you have to get before even South Carolina finds your actions a little bit embarrassing? The home of Mark “Appalachian Trail” Sanford, the state that started the Civil War, the state that refused to take down the Confederate flag from the statehouse until 135 years after the Civil War ended? The state that single-handedly accounts for almost half the nation’s worst public schools? The state that elected both Preston Brooks (chiefly known for beating another U.S. Senator with a cane on the Senate floor) and Megabigot Strom Thurmond to the U.S. Senate? And of course Joe “You lie!” Wilson is only the most recent of embarrassments.

Truly South Carolina is the worst state in the country. And no, Stephen Colbert does NOT make up for it. No wonder David Thielen recently tried to convince people to vote against the “far far far left” city council candidates by comparing them to the government of Charleston, South Carolina. Can you imagine a worse thing to say about someone?

And this guy has even embarrassed South Carolina.

Worst state in the country?

One thought on “At least it’s not your Assistant Attorney General

  1. Does this mean Mississippi and Alabama are out of the running already? And I suspect we’ve only begun to scratch the (melting) ice of Alaska.

    On the other hand maybe Texas will have a Second Coming as an energy producer, if only they could package statements by their politos as Super-Oxygenated Aerated Bovine Waste.
