Start with this article at FITS News -- "unfair and unbalanced."
S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford may be an amateur Romeo, but it looks like he’s got nothing on his appointment to the S.C. State Board of Education.
Kristin Maguire, an Upstate evangelical and one of South Carolina’s most respected social conservatives, has been one of the governor’s closest education policy advisors for years. She’s also Sanford’s appointment to the S.C. Board of Education, which last year elected her its Chairwoman.
What else is she?
The prolific author of hardcore erotic fiction on the Internet, according to documents provided to the governor’s office earlier this summer and later obtained by FITS.
Maguire, a professed Christian who home-schools her four children, declined to comment for our story but did not deny that she had previously frequented websites that feature such X-rated material. Maguire believes that a former friend is leaking the information to the media in an effort to ruin her political career.
As for the specific writings alleged to have flowed from Maguire’s pen, most have been deleted from the Internet.
Oh, but wait a minute. We heathens shouldn't throw stones at this good church-lady -- she was going through some rough times and, as we all know, a little porn fantasy helps smooth out the rough spots.
Confronted with these numerous identifying markers, Maguire spoke to FITS of difficult times in her life and acknowledged that she had visited certain websites where such material was posted and reviewed. She did not admit to authoring erotic fiction, however.
On the other hand -- faster than an Argentine tango, the Governor's office has a completely different tale:
A source familiar with Sanford’s response to receiving this information tells a different story, however. This source says that Maguire emphatically denied that the writing samples were hers, and that she and the governor’s chief of staff, Scott English, immediately set about to ensure that none of the material remained on the Internet.
Can we rely on eyewitness testimony?
For example, several sources have related to FITS an incident involving Maguire and Scott English at a Columbia area bar at the end of the 2004 legislative session.
"She was giving him a lap dance," says a witness at the bar. "There’s no other way to describe it."
Another former Sanford staffer tells FITS that Maguire once unbuttoned her blouse and hiked up her skirt in front of him to show off her see-thru, light blue underwear. This incident allegedly occurred not at a bar, but inside the governor’s office – at the unoccupied desk of First Lady Jenny Sanford, no less.
Maybe the devil made her do it.
"Lies, lies, lies, lies," a friend of Maguire’s told FITS. "These are all lies. That is not Kristin and shame on any person who says that it is."
And why am I not surprised at this:
Prior to being elected Chairwoman, Maguire led the panel responsible for approving education standards taught in South Carolina classrooms, including what textbooks were to be used and how teachers were to be certified. She has been a strong supporter of "abstinence only" sex education, as well.
OKAY -- SO CUT THE CRAP AND GET TO THE GOOD STUFF.
These are samples of the erotic fiction written by "Bridget Keeney," who is alleged to be S.C. Board of Education Chairwoman Kristin Maguire. Please note that these documents contain EXCEEDINGLY GRAPHIC DESCRIPTIONS OF SEXUAL ACTS and as such are NSFW – or NOT SAFE FOR WORK -- but they are okay if you are a repressed fundamentalist looking for a good time.

Finally, we leave you with this to think about:
So, did Sanford’s office help Maguire engage in a cover-up of this highly-sensitive information? Or, as English told FITS, was the Governor’s Office simply reeling from the distraction caused by the governor’s own sex scandal? Who knows, but shortly after Sanford’s office was informed of the alleged connection between Maguire and "Bridget," her writings began disappearing from the web.
