Dear Ms. Haley: Has it dawned on you that you cannot repeat - Cannot placate a mob of leftists bent on the destruction of freedom? That should have been obvious to you BEFORE your pandered to the masses. But alas, it should be readily apparent to you NOW.
You could have simply waited a few news cycles and the whole thing would have blown over with the media chasing after yet another squirrel. This is what Communists on the Countrys left do all the time they Stonewall (oops! Can I even use that expression any more?) delay and demur and questions on the controversy de jour until enough time passes that the masses move on to the latest on what the Kardashians are doing or some other mindless pabulum. This is Hillary Clintons ongoing media strategy, but rest assured she will clue everyone in on her excuses from breaking the law somewhere along towards the end of 2nd or 3rd term in the oval office.
But hey, instead of following that tried and true method and having the whole thing burn itself out right around now, you choose to throw a big Ol bucket of gasoline on the fire pandering to the DemoMob. Now with your attempt at appeasement, the freedom hating leftist can now point to YOU and other denizens of the GOP for justification for their lynching of history.
You and the RINO pack could have tried to weather the storm a few days and it would have blown itself out, but instead you decided to reward them and encourage them to press on making even more insane demands.
Make my words, they will keep on making more and more outrageous demands until you have to put you foot down THEN they will turn on you and act as though you didnt try to appease them in the first place.
So lets have a new rule call it the Nikki rule:
Any time there is a Controversy like this WAIT at least 5 7 days before even considering any type of pandering aside from the perfunctory short press statements that dont actually say anything.
Thank you for your time.
P.S. One other thing, your aspirations for higher office are toast at this point, that should be painfully obvious to you by now. And it should serve as an object lesson for anyone in the GOP that wishes to follow your path to destruction.
I really wanted someone to vote for besides Haley. She “ain’t from around here” and never had ancestors that have a history in SC or the Confederacy. She has no heritage with the rest of South Carolina. It’s easy for her to erase our history because it’s not her history and means nothing to her.
That's a really STUPID statement. I don't care to get in the weeds with something that stupid.
One can never satisfy the Torquemada’s on the left.
That’s right. Concessions to the leftist agenda only lead to increased pressure for still more concessions.
They will be ‘Gone with the wind’.
Our ‘leaders’ in the GOPe have helped usher in a new era of censorship.
With friends like them, who needs enemies...
Will the South stay home on election day if the Republican candidate called for taking the flag and all references to the Confederacy down? YOU BETCHA!
I guess Gov Haley didn’t realize this move would only result in her spending the next $50 million in her budget renaming highways, state parks, libraries, etc., and all the signage that goes with that.
Why do we even subscribe by our actions that the confederate Flag is a GOP problem when it is exclusively a Democrat History Problem, let them fix it, but then again the petulant children that are the democrats never deal with the problems that they create, in the end it is always up tot he adult conservatives to eventually have to deal with them...
I’m sick of having to pick up after the spoiled democrat brats
We will see colleges taking down statues of founding fathers and replacing them with Lenin statues before this is all over with and the GOP is fully complicit.
FULLY COMPLICIT
That could easily be said about the Dick in the White House, too.
GOP has endorsed this flag burning and some have called for taking down statues and stuff.
They are fully complicit
Yes, I thought of that as well.
Aren’t they trying to turn that into a national monument?
I wonder if the leftists would react as they did when Confederate monuments were vandalized..
Just saying...
“Did they learn their lesson?’
No they are idiots and have shown everyone republican party leadership has no strategy whatsoever to take on the dem party.
A simple strategy of jumping on the bandwagon and calling for the names of democrats associated with the KKK or racism in any shape form or fashion being removed from any govt building or public display would shut it up quick.
Start calling for Bill Clinton’s name to be removed from any govt property because he racial profiled and engaged in voter disenfranchisement.
Have B Clinton’s picture removed from the WH because he is an admitted racist.
Robert Byrd, Wilson, all the rest have their names and likeness stricken/removed from any public display.
Introduce bills in congress demanding all schools teach the racist history of the democrat party or loose govt funding.
Introduce bills in congress demanding the democrat party pay reparations for slavery.
No matter how ridiculous, play the dem game and go for it.
Cloward-Piven them.
Make the dems live up to their own standards
Now they want to remove statues and monuments, even the University of Texas is considering it.
The left smells a kill, they smell the end of conservatism they now see their future total control and thus triple their efforts. Basically there is nothing left but a terrible Social War. Does anyone honestly think the left is going to say “O Fie we must voluntarily give up our positions of power and authority.” Those of leftist persuasion have planned and executed well. Since the 1930’s they have gained control over all vital institutions; i.e. academia, giving access to the future governors, control of media thus controlling public opinion; control of organized religion, recently the control of business, once a bastion of conservative opinion. We are in bad shape and our civilization is crumbling around us.
Blue state. It’s safe.
Some idiot movie critic has already proposed banning “Gone With the Wind.” Hysteria has gripped the land.
Or any slave owner.
Nicky is not a leader, she is a follower. She follows public opinion to get herself elected. If she cannot verbalized the meaning of the flag that her constituents believe in even if she doesn’t agree, she’s not a leader.
Which part is "STUPID"? The part that's not true? You sound like a real liberal bed wetter. All they know how to do is point fingers and call names.
