2 Cents: Zero Tolerance
Zero tolerance. Is that what we have come to? No common sense, no flexibility, no sense of doing the right thing.

2 Cents - Andre Bauer
Last year, I got the chance to sit and talk for about an hour with Lieutenant Governor Andre Bauer when he was here at Channel 2. Unfortunately, the Andre Bauer I saw on News 2 Wednesday was all politician.

2 Cents: Gambling and games
If you’re planning to gather ‘round the kitchen table for family game night, there something you need to know. You may be doing something illegal. That’s right. Yahtzee, Monopoly ... even Chutes and Ladders … they’re all illegal in the Palmetto state.

2 Cents: Twitter and social media
Well… it’s no secret that times they are a changing. You don’t send a letter in the mail or make a long distance telephone call anymore. If you want to stay in touch there are, it seems, at least a thousand other ways to stay hyper-connected.

2 Cents: Medical cut backs
It’s no secret that in this economy, people are trying to save money every way they know how… but certainly if there is one industry that is safe from the cut backs it would have to be the medical profession right? WRONG!

2 Cents: Cigarette Tax
Lawmakers are battling it out again over a proposed cigarette tax increase for South Carolina. It seems the argument isn’t over the obvious question of whether or not we should raise the tax on cigarettes.

2 Cents - Rush Limbaugh
As you have probably heard, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh recently said he “hopes” President Obama fails. In the full context of what he said, it’s clear he’s talking about liberal policies. but it’s still the wrong message to send in this economic crisis.

2 Cents - Customer service
Christmas might be over but the shopping hasn’t slowed down. Many of us will be rushing in and out of local businesses cashing in all of those gift cards that we received , making returns or exchanges or maybe just looking for those after Christmas sales.

2 Cents - Toys for Tots

2 Cents - DTV and what it means to you
You will hear this editorial and hear us talk about the digital switch and DTV many times before February 17, 2009 … Why? Because that’s when all full-power television stations nationwide must stop using the old method of transmitting TV signals known as analog and begin broadcasting exclusively in a digital format.

2 Cents - Communion
This is a tough one. I am not here to question anyone’s beliefs. However, one of the leading stories on many news networks is a very controversial report about a sc priest who told his parishioners they should refrain from taking Holy Communion if they voted for Barack Obama because the democratic president elect is pro choice.

2 Cents - 44th Presidential Election
We heard from a lot of you on election day about how long you waited in line to vote … 2 hours … 3 hours … 4 hours. Did you expect anything less? We’re talking about a nationally historic election. More people were engaged in this uniquely American process than at anytime in our history.

2 Cents - Water coller talk
Obama and Biden… McCain and Palin…. You can’t turn on the television, log on to the internet or read the paper without hearing something about one of these people. And believe it or not, that’s a good thing. You have to have information to make an informed choice…

2 Cents - Vote
People have a lot of reasons why they don’t vote. It seems to me that every election year I hear someone say “well I don’t know enough about the issues or the candidates to vote”

Last Week when the threat of Hurricane Ike was approaching the Texas Coast There was a lot of talk about the potential for higher gas prices.

2 Cents - Stand up to cancer
It’s not often that you will see rival television networks set aside their competitive nature and join together. To warrant such collaboration, a cause would have to be monumentally significant.
2 Cents - The Smoking Ban Wagon
The city of The Isle of Palms is the latest town trying to jump on the “smoking ban wagon” after the city council voted Tuesday evening to pass the first reading of the ban that would snuff out public smoking. If passed, the Isle of palms would be fourth town in our area to be smoke free joining the likes of Mount Pleasant, Sullivan’s island and the city of Charleston.
