Did he purposely have anything to do with it? No! Let me make that clear: He or his staff did not have any intention to make people sick, and it may not even have been from the food to begin with.
I suggest it's all the Rush and Sean talking points they've ingested in the months following Obama's presidential win on top of what Henry was spewing out of his mouth. Here's a excerpt:
At least 11 people who attended the same event in Myrtle Beach on Thursday became ill afterward, according to the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control.
The illness, which causes sudden queasiness, is being tracked by the department, said DHEC spokesman Thom Berry.
No hospitalizations have been required, Berry said. DHEC officials have determined that all of the known cases of illness were in people who attended an event Thursday night for U.S. Rep. Henry Brown, R-S.C., but the illness has not been positively linked to that event.
One of those sick people included Georgetown GOP's own Jim Jerow. Here's to you and your support for GOPher Brown, Jim. All joking aside, let's wait for the details. As of right now, we have this to lead us:
"We can't say anything yet," Berry said. "We're looking for commonalities. So far, the only thing they have in common is attending this event." The exact cause of the illness is not known. Berry said testing is being done to determine whether it was food poisoning or a quick-moving virus that strikes quickly in large crowds.
Look, this is besides the point. The main point is that he always skips Georgetown when holding these events like this. I suppose the people losing jobs in this county are less important than a county that shooed him into office in 2008.
And despite the fact that these GOPher can run around and bash Rep. Vida Miller on a daily basis in the press and produce nothing in the statehouse themselves, people actually feel sorry for them? I don't.
People got sick. From what is not sure. I can offer a suggestion on what it might be:
The constant lies and rhetoric that is being told by the GOP has probably even been a little too much for them to handle.

Jamie, I hope you'll blog on the interview Linda Ketner gave a blogger a few days ago where she said that Lindsey Graham, Andre Bauer, and Glenn McConnell are closeted gays.

I saw that. Maybe after this city primary. Thanks for sharing the link.
