Props to Elaborator for trying to get me worked up. I'm sure the man was hiking the trail and sure his wife knew and sure his staff could get him if anything life threatening or an emergency happened. I don't want or expect you people to understand SC politics but it is easy for me to see how his political enemies would try to blow this out of proportion. "Fathers Day" is a fake Hallmark Holiday so that doesn't figure into the equation at all to thinking people. Mothers Day is the same but it's impossible to ignore that one without looking like a piece of shit.
The man has his enemies and this is the home of Lee Atwater, after all.
