Columbia, SC, 15 Sept 2009 – The South Carolina Federation of Young Republicans (SCFYR) announced their support for Congressman, Joe Wilson, whose “You lie.” comment during President Obama’s speech on health care reform garnered him criticism from both sides of the aisle. “Congressman Wilson’s comment was a visceral eruption of emotion that truly exemplifies the feelings of Americans all across the country who are outraged at a president and congress who are drunk with power and driving us to the brink of disaster,” said SCFYR Chairman, Britton Pruett. “Congressman Wilson’s courage is an inspiration to Young Republicans and I’m sure our members will help reelect him in 2010.”

Former South Carolina Federation of Young Republicans Chairman, Patrick Haddon was awarded the Young Republican National Federation’s highest award, “Man of the Year” at its biennial convention and awards gala. Patrick’s enthusiasm and dedication to the young people of South Carolina led to his tireless efforts to reorganize South Carolina with the National Young Republican organization. In only two years, Patrick stoked the fire that founded 10 Young Republican organizations throughout the state, which caught the attention and respect of national Young Republican leadership. “We are so proud of Patrick,” said current Chairman, Britton Pruett “it was such an exciting moment to share in one of South Carolina’s own—one of our own—being recognized on a notional stage.”
