    Good call! This state legislator sounds like a Canute in the making.

    Narcissism? Sounds more like "Helpless Idiocy Quote of the Week" to me. If Jake Knotts' constituents are as feeble-minded as he obviously is, God help South Carolina!

    While I understand the weather catastrophe bit, to some degree, was Sen. Knotts worried about an Iranian invasion of Myrtle Beach taking place while the governor was missing?

    Good grief! Does someone have to be on call 24/7 or do the constituents of South Carolina not have an independent thought amongst them? This whining about how self important these pols think they are is proof they need to get real jobs.
