Discussion for article #244590
I would have bet money that the GOP would have tried to put a different face on. Nope.
She might as well be an angry old Tea Party guy.

I suspect Dan Quayleâs opinion is far more appropriate.

News flash: Nikki Haley, the daughter of immigrants is against immigrants coming to our shores. Sheâs pathetic. Really a lightweight.

ââŚin the history of man. And woman.â
Wait, did she just lay down some political correctness? I suppose it almost makes up for the âour blacks donât riotâ bit.

I think she gave a perfectly fine response. That being said I take issue with her âpointsâ. The GOP would have you believe that 8 years ago they did not leave us gasping at the economy and that the President did nothing to get us away from that. That somehow after years of the GOP doing nothing, giving healthcare to millions was a bad thing and they could do BETTER . Iâm sure the base will suck this up and not understand a single word of the Presidentâs last point.

In fairness she did the best response over the past 7 years. Sheâs definitely in the spectrum of normal. If she were paired with a Kasich as nominee, they could be extremely competitive in a general election scenario. I say that as a Democrat. But that scenario is highly unlikely in todayâs GOP.

She actually had more good to say than any other GOTP apologist has over the course of Obamaâs presidency. I was pleasantly surprised other than her not having the integrity to acknowledge his accomplishments but that would be too much to expect and I might not have slept well tonight had she done soâŚ
I especially like her thinly disguised shots at tRUMP.

Yes I could read it or watch it. I could slam my dick in a car door as well.

Tell us how you got ahead, HaleyâŚ
so tired of the discussion veering to prayer. itâs horseshit and it needs to be called out. âall the guidance we needâ was clearly a call to read the holly bibble. she should go back to being a self-loathing⌠whatever she is. lunacy

Sheâd set the stage correctly âIâm the child of immigrants who didnât look like their neighborsâ and then come to the most obviously incorrect conclusion âdonât allow immigrants inâ.
Itâs hard to write a coherent speech when your entire life story is a rejection of what your party stands for.

âWe removed a symbol that was being used to divide us, and we found a strength that united us against a domestic terrorist and the hate that filled him
But just months before, during her 2014 reelection campaign, she dismissed calls from her opponent, state Sen. Sheheen, to remove the flag. âWhat I can tell you is over the last three-and-a-half years, I spent a lot of my days on the phones with CEOs and recruiting jobs to this state,â she said during an October debate. âI can honestly say I have not had one conversation with a single CEO about the Confederate flag.â
Two days after the shooting, she told CBS anchor Gayle King that while the âconversationâ about the flag would âprobably come back up again,â it was too early âto start having policy conversations with the people of South Carolina.â

So is she angling for a VP position?
It would be a good choice by the Republicans. I feel like being allowed the SOTU response was probably a trial balloon by the Republican party.

Iâll pass, thanks.
As he did when he first ran for office, tonight President Obama spoke eloquently about grand things. He is at his best when he does that.
âUnfortunately, the Presidentâs record has often fallen far short of his soaring words.
⌠was there a SINGLE Rethug talking head tonight who did NOT respond, within 30 seconds of being asked by âthe liberal mediaâ, that the President was basically full of hot air and pretty wordsâŚ???

Maybe sheâs seeing America through rose colored glasses, I donât know but her recollections arenât accurate in the least. People still remember how the Republicans left this nation and those that are supposedly still struggling know why and when that happened.
Sheâs trying to church up the past and real history of her Party and maybe it works that way in her head but when the Republicans have had their shot, they screw the whole nation, bar a few rich white dudes, and the pains that people feel are like a giant, sickening hangover from Bush and Reagan days gone by.

Why wasnât she in the clown car? She would have won
Oh, she may speak well, and dress up nice for parties. But I suspect sheâs just as batshit crazy as the maniacal fruitcake but reasonable sounding Paul Ryan.

Apparently she is catching all manner of hell for departing from the boilerplate Republican narrative by GOTP punditry.
Unless I was dreaming I even heard her use the term âDomestic Terroristsâ.
