Efforts to help Nettie Britts underway

In the last 24 hours, Republicans statewide have begun to rally to show their support for fellow Republican Nettie Britts, the Chair of the Richland County YRs, who is recovering from extensive injuries suffered in an attack at her home last week.

Sheri Few and Mike Green have gone online with the Helping Nettie Britts website (http://www.helpnettie.com) to help update those following the situation, as well as serve as a conduit for cards and contributions to help with medical costs, which we presume will be significant.

Plans are being put together for a benefit concert in Columbia and/or Florence and details will be announced as they become available. If you'd like to get involved, please email me at earl@earlcapps.org.

Blogland activity will be put on hold for a few days while we keep our readers informed about what is going on. We can't say enough to encourage our readers to help Nettie and get involved in the various efforts to let her know we're there for her.

I certainly plan on helping. Have visited the web site and since Nettie and I are friends on Facebook also I have been tracking that as well. Earl a lot of people are praying and wanting to help and you are a good conduit for that.

Moye, get your county party treasurer to get her son to help provide some cue for the event!

Earl, what is the best way to send her a get well card? Should they go to Sheri Few's PO Box on the website?

Leave it to the long-haired headbanger of the bloggerdom to come up with the idea of a rock concert to help her out.

I might tell you to put down the bong, but this time, I think it's a great idea. Rock on, dude!
