  • Ethics Summary Final(2)
    ETHICS COMMISSION REPORT November 2009 SUMMARY After giving the Ethics Commission report to the House of Representatives earlier this afternoon, Governor Sanford has decided to make public that same document as part of his continued efforts to both fully cooperate with the Commission and share as much relevant information with the public as possible. We believe that when the full story is told, it will be clear that this Administration has kept a consistent eye out for the taxpayer. It is important to remember that we are still in the early stages of the ethics process, and that we continue to support the Ethics Commission being able to complete their work and then release all findings to the public. The steps are as follows: first, a preliminary report to determine whether or not there was anything even worth looking at (which was not unexpected as allegations had made headlines for months); next, will come our chance to shed light on any remaining questions when the Commission holds hearings; then, their conclusion will follow. Through this process, we will have the opportunity to show that Governor Sanford has complied fully with the law. For instance, that he has simply followed a legislatively audited and long held practice regarding overseas travel – the same practice accepted over the last 30 years as business class tickets were used by South Carolina Commerce staff, Members of the House and Senate, governors and Secretaries of Commerce on overseas investment trips. We feel vindicated that in this case the issues of probable cause are limited to about three dozen minor, technical matters that do not include any allegations of criminal conduct.

    1 Writing 20, True(?) Crime Dr. Odendahl-James, Fall 2009 Blog 1 – Writing in Conversation with Sources Bloggers whose work will be under discussion in class should submit their documents to the Course Blog (under Course Information) by 9am Tuesday, 9/8. All other posters should submit their posts to the Individual Bog (under Assignments) by 9am Tuesday, 9/8. Late posts will not be counted as received. Bloggers whose work will be under discussion, please bring to class either your laptops or a hard copy of the post so you can read aloud. I will also bring my computer so the class can read along. Blog Commenters have until 5pm Wednesday, 9/9 to post feedback to the Course Bog. Late comments will not receive credit. Step 1: Choose one of the readings discussed in class on September 1: Jean Murley‘s ―Introduction‖ and the first part of Karen Halftone‘s ―Murder Story as Mystery.‖ Step 2: Select three significant passages from whichever reading you selected for Step 1. You decide what makes a passage ―significant‖; the length of each passage should not be more than about 4-5 full sentences. Re-type those passages into a Word document and spend some time brainstorming about what you think makes each passage important to your thinking about the topic of ―true crime‖. This step is usually called ―pre-writing.‖ Step 3. Out of that brainstorming, in a new Word document, write, in your own words, a 250-300 word analysis of one of the ―significant‖ passages you selected in Step 2.
