On the morning for Saturday, May 14th, workers at interim Santee Cooper Chairman, Guerry Green’s, Screen Tight manufacturing facility in Georgetown, SC, reported seeing smoke coming from the administrative offices, but were told by their bosses to, “go back to work.” A very short time later the administrative offices were engulfed in what arson investigators say was an inferno.
Prior to the suspicious fire that put at least 50 Screen Tight employees out of work, and caused an estimated $20 million dollars in damages to the screen manufacturing facility, Screen Tight had been visited on several occasions by investigators from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), formerly the Immigration and Naturalization Services (INS), who were reportedly looking into claims about the company’s illegal utilization of undocumented foreign workers.
It is well known, that when showing visitors around the Screen Tight facility Green is fond of saying, “if I was to yell out INS right now this place would be very empty, very fast.”
Shortly before the Saturday blaze; South Carolina Governor, Mark Sanford, had notified Green that he was withdrawing his support for Green’s Santee Cooper confirmation. Sanford withdrew his support because of documents currently before a five-member South Carolina Senate subcommittee that imply that Green and other Santee Cooper board members may have violated open-meeting laws, micro-managed Santee Cooper's top executives and that some members dealt with Wall Street credit-rating firms without full board approval. The documents came from low and mid-level Santee Cooper employees who have handed over to the Senate subcommittee board members' e-mails, which were mined from the utility's computer system. Former Santee Cooper Chief Executive Officer and subcommittee member, Sen. William Mescher commenting on the contents of the documents in the State newspaper said, “It runs the whole gamut and I think it shows they just did not have the best interest of Santee Cooper in mind. It's fairly damning stuff."
Was Screen Tight torched in order to destroy documents relating to the USCIS and State Senate scrutiny? An arson team from the State Law Enforcement Division was called to the scene on Sunday, May 15th. Their investigation could take at least 30 days according to Georgetown County Fire Chief Mack Reed.

Foxworth Kicks DeFeo, Oliver, Wendel, Edge, Helms and Huggins’ Asses!
By The Watchman
Despite the usual last minute dirty campaigning by perpetual loser, Joe DeFeo, and his sleazball puppet masters, Burroughs & Chapin kingpin Doug Wendel and the ethically destitute Republican Party chairman Duane Oliver, along with their sycophantical flunkies, including Rep. Tracy Edge and disgraced former County Planning Commission Chairman Don Helms, incumbent 3rd District county councilman, Marion Foxworth kicked their collective asses in yesterday’s special election 797 t0 490.
Sources reported hearing cries of pain and girlish sobbing emanating from B&C’s corporate offices on the 4th floor of the Founder’s Centre last night as they learned of DeFeo’s ass whuping. Another source said that Wendel and Edge were reportedly found curled up together in fetal positions, sucking their thumbs, in the B&C lobby this morning.
As to DeFeo, Oliver and Helms they were reportedly seen at financially floundering AvCraft Aviation this morning along with WPDE-TV station manager, Billy Huggins (see related April 14th story Did WPDE-TV and the DeFeo Campaign Conspire to Commit State and Federal Election Fraud? below), and ousted PARTNERS president, Joe Woodle, begging like dogs for a plane to get them out of town, as airport director, Bob Kemp, frantically waved his arms in the air behind them crying, “Don’t forget me!” Sadly, for them, none of the AvCraft planes can actually fly, so they’re all stuck here to face their disgrace, and the laughter from the public.
As expected from this crowd of cretins, voters in District 3 found their mailboxes stuffed with last minute attack pieces from the DeFeo camp. One, attributed to Helms, railed about a street in the Carolina Forest area the Foxworth supposedly ignored to the alleged detriment of the folks in Carolina Forest. Surprise, surprise the road isn’t even in Foxworth’s district. Obviously, Donny don’t know squat.
Street talk says that last week DeFeo's principal backer, Doug Wendel, after seeing virtually every decent Republican elected official in Horry County, including County Council Chairman, Liz Gilland, Mark Lazarus, John Boyd and Harold Worley, endorse Foxworth, and then seeing the floundering DeFeo campaign garnering zero traction, reportedly went ballistic in an absolute panic as he saw his nefarious plan to resurrect those halcyon days when Chad Prosser chaired County Council, and hand delivered millions of taxpayer’s dollars into B&C’s coffers – think multi-county business park – slipping away.
Desperate, Wendel called upon his in-house Statehouse stooge, Edge, in a vehement, last ditch attempt to try and turn the tide for DeFeo. Edge, always the monkey to Wendel’s organ grinding, sent out a second attack piece in yet another of their scurrilous attempts to smear Foxworth. As one politico so succinctly put it, “Come on, as wimpy as Tracy is, only a fool would think he could possibly think of something like that on his own. Hell, Tracy can’t pee pee without Dougie’s permission.”
Another long time political observer said, “With polls showing that 73% of the voters want their elected officials to stand up to B&C, and to stop all of their dirty back room dealings, Wendel was forced to wait until the last minute to come out of the DeFeo closet, but the voters yesterday showed that they are savvy, and won’t be mislead by those bastards’ lies and innuendos.”
As the ultimate example of how truly clueless these clowns are, DeFeo actually said last night that he might try for a fourth run against Foxworth in four years. Hey Joe, how about a little reality check from the Watchman? Stick a fork in yourself, because you’re done!

The Real Facts About Shaggers
By: Scooter Johnson
A column in the Sunday, May 1, 2005, edition of the Sun News mentions a 10 question survey on shaggers, conducted by Coastal Carolina University on behalf of the Society of Stranders and the North Myrtle Beach Chamber of Commerce touting how shaggers “pumped about $7 million (dollars) into the Grand Strand economy” each fall.
We understand that there were only 10 questions, because shaggers are not very bright, and like most mentally challenged people; they have a very limited attention span.
Now, lets set the record straight on exactly what the real deal is with this crowd of phony baloney cheapskates.
Except for the few folks making money off of the shagger’s, the rest of us here wish that their so called spring and fall “migrations” included a hunting season on shaggers, in hopes that we could eventually drive them to extinction. We realize, of course, that shagger hunting wouldn’t be fair, because they’re just too easy of a prey. Besides being dumb animals, their hideous, clown-like wardrobes of madras and lamé make them stand out from normal folks. The stench of their cheap perfumes and colognes, as well as the toxic fumes from their constant carcinogenic cloud of cigarette smoke can be smelled from miles away by even the most sinus-challenged individuals. They’re so obnoxiously loud, especially the ear-splitting shrieking of the females, that their din could easily drown out all of the bikers events combined, and since they can usually be found in the parking lots drinking out of the trunks of their cars, they’re too easy to find.
Ask any server, bartender, bellman, parking attendant or anyone else depending on tips to pay their bills, and you will quickly find that they all hate shaggers because:
“Shaggers are by far the cheapest bastards anywhere!”
“Shaggers are rude, and treat us like dirt – unless they want something, then you’ll hear that cornball ‘darlin’ bullshit of theirs.”
“They are definitely the biggest, and most obnoxious drunks we see every year, and the women are as bad as the men.”
Now as to that “$7 million,” the reality of that number is that each shagger spends less than $100 per day, while the black bikers spend more than twice as much.
Hell, so what if it isn’t fair, lets shoot ’em anyway! We can call it mercy killing!
