    Might that have been the Mayor of Memphis you are confusing Haley with?

    No it was Haley, I think it was when she was running for governor. It turned out to be nothing but a political smear campaign by, guess who, those lovely Dems.

    There was another "bodyguard" issue that seems to dangle without any meaning as well.

    I think Joe got it right, James may have the mayor of Nashville confused with Ms Haley.

    The one thing that I am sure that James is 100% correct about is that no matter who did what to whom, if it were bad------the damn Dems did it

    That was it Ben, I remember it was during her gov race.


    Seems like her accuser is something of a well known pain in the ass type pf reporting mostly using "unnamed sources" to substantiate his stories. Sounds kike a reporter in training for the NYT. They seem to also use plenty of unnamed sources for their stories as well as the Dems who drag up 35 year old drunken party girls, who do not have anything to backup their stories either.


    Glad you feel better Dave, why don't you read Ben's link so you dont whip yourself into a tizzy trying to drag me through the mud.

    I did read it James but I seem to have underestimated your ability to vilify the left despite no apparent connection to this phony story---your very own fake news generator at work

    There was a huge smear campaign, huge that is when she was running as a Republican governor of our fine state. Same ole same ole, the left hated her more than the right but the right was saying she was a lefty and when she got elected S.C. was plunged into the dark ages etc... Then when Trump appointed her the Trump right liked her again the left called her the Anti-Christ, you know, same ole same ole.
    This is your mind on drugs!

    I like her

    "At a lighthearted charity dinner Thursday night, Haley made a bunch of jokes about the administration, as is custom at this event: "He said if I get stuck for laughs, just brag about his accomplishments. It really killed at the U.N., I got to tell you."

    RECOMMENDED VIDEO
    But then Haley got serious. Very serious. What she said next seemed directly tailored at the president's increasingly alarmist rhetoric about Democrats being the party of "crime" or opponents of Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh being "evil."


    The Post's John Wagner wrote up her remarks:

    "'In our toxic political environment, I've heard some people in both parties describe their opponents as enemies or evil. In America, our political opponents are not evil. In South Sudan, where rape is routinely used as a weapon of war - that is evil. In Syria, where the dictator uses chemical weapons to murder innocent children - that is evil. In North Korea, where American student Otto Warmbier was tortured to death - that was evil.

    "'In the last two years, I've seen true evil. We have some serious political differences here at home. But our opponents are not evil. They're just our opponents.'"

    from. (yes the article is a bashpiece but I agree with her quoted statement in it, not the bent of the article) https://www.sfgate.com/opinion/artic...p-13321039.php

    I heard those remarks----unlike her boss, she is a class act.

    I hope we see more of her.

    Her old boss’ results are far and away class acts, and next to the results, the dust-ups on his histrionics in achieving them mean zip. How the carnival barker gets them in the tent means nothing if the show on the inside is great.

    Well she has been talked about on the left like she is a mini Trump, it happens when she says what needs to be said. Who cares thatthe left thinks that Trump and those like him are attack dogs, I sure don not. There comes a time when protocols have to be set to the side and you fight with everything you have. That is how you take the advantage away from the planners, those same planners have counted on the Repubs running scared and being polite, like the game plan calls for. Trump as well as Haley and the rest of the people he has hired for their spirit, have put the kibosh on the liberals who thought that we would just roll over and go away.


    To the naysayers, get over yourselves, sometimes things have to be done irrationally in order to get what you want.
