Wal-Mart - did it join Haley in opposing Amazon jobs in SC?

[RT Atlanta]

Pretty interesting article:

Based on the timing, and that Haley is teabagger in a pant-suit, I have to believe there was a lot of political graft involved in this one.

One of the recent comments is dead-on where they reference the likelihood that Amazon would've brought badly needed jobs that pay livable wages to SC, rather than the minimum wage jobs from Wal-Mart.

Such is the sad state of affiars in SC. Unfortunately, the state is reaping what it has sown from electing teabaggers and republicans for the last 20 years or so.

1. Oh, she's something. The Walmart/Amazon thing doesn't surprise me.

Hell, news.google "nikki haley" and you get all sorts of insanity. And she's only been in office four months.

I've lived here all my life, and you're right about the repub drones here - will they ever learn? Luckily I'm in the Charleston area, which is not so red.

Interesting to note, though - last year Haley barely squeaked out a win against Democrat Sheheen who had a strong showing in an election that should have been a cakewalk for her majesty.
