COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - South Carolina's surprise Democratic nominee to challenge U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint is facing a pending felony charge.

Court records show 32-year-old Alvin Greene was arrested in November and charged with showing obscene Internet photos to a University of South Carolina student. The felony charge carries up to five years in prison.

Greene said he had no comment when asked about the charge Wednesday and hung up on a reporter.

The unemployed veteran posted bond after his arrest. He has yet to enter a plea or be indicted.

Records indicate Greene showed photos to a woman and talked about going to her room at a university dorm.

What. The. FUCK? Showing obscene Internet photos to someone that is (apparently) above the age of 18 can land you in prison for 5 years? Something about this doesn't sound correct.

Put that guy on Fox News. Ask him a few questions. See if he falls into the traps they set for him. See what he answers and say "see, that's what all Democrats are like".

Maybe it's a trick. The D's know that the R's have such a strong hand going into November that they're throwing out this potentially distracting candidate so that the R's get off the winning message.

Why would that even be a crime? She wasn't underage, presumably, since she was in college? So she was offended by him naked or something?
