Its hard to believe that a 44 year old millionaire with EVERYTHING going for him would throw it all away for cocaine. What an idiot.

To: Congressman Billybob The elephant in the living room that even conservatives don't want to acknowledge is the simple fact that any fence or 'enhanced' border security will also slow down the amount of drugs coming in. It's a tax free and all cash business, what, anyone think the dealers don't share?

Looks like my crystal ball was working just fine this AM when I made the previous post ;^)

This is jaw-dropping social news in SC. Even in the 60's, the Ravenels were one of "Charleston's finest families". They named towns and bridges after his dad, Arthur, who won his seat in Congress only after he switched to the Republican party (yes, the Ravenels are libs by blood).

I always figured Tommy would be the one to screw up the family name. :-)

This won’t hurt his campaign but he sure does seem to hang out with some unsavory folks. Guys like Bernie and now this fellow.

It’s the feel good story of the year!

The millionaire is accused of buying less than 500 grams of the drug to share with other people in late 2005, U.S. Attorney Reggie Lloyd said.

That's over 17 OUNCES of powder COCAINE!!!!
Geez, how many friends did this guy have?

The “Draft Ravenel for Senate 2008” petition has been taken down “by request of author”, but this delightful “unofficial, unauthorized Ravenel page” is still up:

Oh, and how do you feel about Ravenel now ? I hope you’ve finally gotten off his bandwagon ! And yes, I would still gladly vote for a guy's who "treasonous" record in the Senate looks just like Fred's "record" there, vs. a coke snorting Rudybot.

If it's all about "Graham", you better be damn sure your "true conservative" is SUPERIOR to him. Your cokehead Rudy supporter certainly is not. Perhaps you might scrunitize a candidate's integrity and beliefs a bit more closely before hitching your hide to any popular "R" in South Carolina that you think can "Take out" Graham.

Good luck in your continuing quest to find 100% pure candidate. Someday you might wake up and figure out the Tom Coburns of this world are one in a million.

It’s Billerys fault.
