SC Gov Nikki Haley "We've never in the history of this country passed any laws based on race"

Nikki Haley, who not-so-subtly addressed Trump’s call to ban all Muslim immigrants during last night’s State of the Union response, has responded to criticism from Trump by holding fast to her position. And also by apparently forgetting that slavery, Jim Crow laws, and the Trail of Tears (along with the rest of a not at all insignificant portion of American history) ever happened.

Haley, who spoke last night through clenched jaw, urged the country’s conservatives not to follow “the siren call of the angriest voices”—which is a very fancy way of saying Donald Trump. Trump then called her “weak on illegal immigration.”

In defending her positions to reporters this afternoon, Haley let loose a bizarre, amnesiac tale of our country’s past.


“When you’ve got immigrants who are coming here legally, we’ve never in the history of this country passed any laws or done anything based on race or religion,” Haley said to reporters in South Carolina, which removed the state capitol’s Confederate flag just this past summer at Haley’s own behest.

“Let’s not start that now,” continued the woman who presides over a state that made it illegal for “any white man to intermarry with any woman of either the Indian or negro races” until 1967.

“We’ve gone too far than to go back into a race and religion issue. I’ve been through those fights. That’s not worth it.”

South Carolina forbid any restaurant or cafeteria from serving “white and colored passengers in the same room, or at the same table, or at the same counter” until 1954.

Nimrata Randhawa should know better
 
I expect nothing less from the governor of a state full of slack jawed, yahoo idiots and a black population that so afraid of memories of the master's whip that they sit back and pretend the piss falling on their heads is rain. I just spent 2 weeks in South Carolina working and its filled with the stupidest Americans I've ever seen.
 
Indians are delusional...and like Ghandi before them,
will, as soon as possible, shit on black people if they
think there is the remotest possibility of being thought
as white...Look at this one who referred to President
Obama's last state of the Union as "self-aggrandising"

Nikki Haley

On the night of the State of the Union address last week, when many in America were prepared to swoon over Barack Obama — only to be turned off by a speech that was self-aggrandising — a woman of Indian origin, her tone measured, her teeth as white as a Trump rally, stole the show from the Democratic president.

Nikki Haley, born Nimrata Kaur Randhawa, is the Republican governor of South Carolina, and to her fell the chore of delivering the response to the President, an American tradition in which a hapless opposition politician is picked by his party’s establishment to speak for a handful of minutes after the Big Cheese has finished.


The task is cursed: the nation has had just about enough of politics after the presidential peacock-dance. So it treats what follows either as an opportunity to turn off the TV, or to titter at the short (and usually impotent) speech. The worst in recent memory was the response by Bobby Jindal, governor of Louisiana, to Obama’s first State of the Union in 2009. With the nation on an Obama high, Jindal’s squeaky voice and pedantry made him an object of derision. His decline as a national politician began that very night.

Haley’s response, by contrast, was the finest I’ve heard, and the excited talk after she spoke was all about how she’d make a perfect Republican vice-presidential candidate.

And yet her words didn’t please everyone: Ann Coulter, a conservative pundit who has made a handsome living by being the shrillest woman in America, tweeted that “Trump should deport Nikki Haley.” This was a response to Haley’s measured words on immigration, in which she’d invoked her own immigrant background while lauding America’s tradition of legal immigration. Haley was suitably tough on the subject of illegal entrants to America, but things have come to such a pass on the Republican right wing that support for immigration of any kind is seen as un-American.

The editorial page of The Wall Street Journal came to Haley’s defence, out of a shared belief in the economic and cultural value of immigration. There
was little defence, however, from Indians on Twitter. And their rejection of Haley was, if anything, more ugly than Coulter’s nativist tantrum.

Desis have a “Bobby and Nikki problem”, and it goes beyond the peculiar Indian-American rejection of conservatism. Their hatred of Jindal stems largely from his public statements that he is “American”, not “Indian-American”. Thin-skinned Indians misinterpret this as a rejection by Jindal of his Indian-ness, as opposed to seeing it as a pitch for an America that’s free of ethnic pigeonholes.

Although Haley has never been dogmatic about her self-definition, the desi Haley-hatred comes from many of the same bigots who despise Jindal, accusing her (and Jindal) of converting to Christianity for political gain. This crude objection to conversion is very Indian, born of a general Indian inability to accept that religion can be a matter of personal election.

The idea that one is forever of the faith of one’s ancestors is so embedded in the Indian psyche that many can’t imagine that a person’s conversion could have occurred for a reason (or by a process) that isn’t venal. The hysteria that overwhelms the debate on conversion in India is proof of this.

But let’s remember that Nikki Haley is American and lives in America, and has the right to convert to any faith she fancies. It is no one else’s business but hers. Those who argue otherwise are primitive bigots who need to get a life.

It's not just that state. It's this country.

Yes it is. I moved here from NJ and the plan has gone well. Get your kids primarily educated in the north where in 6th grade there doing 200 college courses the put put them in this smaller pond and let em be valedictorian instead of top 30 there. When these repubs come to the south, they skip over having townhall meetings. They meet with the pastors of 20 churches and wrap up an entire quadrant of the state. BUT don't take their guns.
 
She's sihk. I would think the majority of Indians are hindu.
So you're giving the voting constituency of South Carolina the benefit of the doubt in knowing the difference between sihk and an ISIS?

Because that's what they'd call her, an ISIS.
 
You guys are missing the point. It doesn't matter if she's wrong or right. The important thing is: Will the people believe her?
 
Look how good Barack Obama had to be to rise in the game of state/ national politics... compared to this clown chick, or sara palin, or trump, or bobby jindal..

Black man has to be damn near godstatus while they can be painfully below average and still get love...
 
She ran as Nikki Haley instead of Nimrata Randhawa

If them idiots in SC knew her real name and seen her in traditional Indian attire they'd call her an ISIS and probably burn her on sight

Bitch knows how to play the game and win. She probably wakes up during the middle of the night in hysterical laughter thinking about those stupid South Carolina cacs. Good money is that she pretends to be Christian because she admits she still does her Sikh shit. She got over on those cacs.

Is it fair to label someone a clever thief, if the shopkeeper is blind?
 
yeah; I don't know how in the fuck they actually put that in the speech. Almost wanted to give her a pass because of the whole flag thing, but I can't. Shit, even if she was just speaking in terms immigration, she's still wrong on a few different levels.

They ain't deaf. You mean word didn't get around that her real name is Nimrata Randhawa and she is a PRACTICING Sikh? The same type people who make it a point to say Barack HUSSEIN Obama? That bitch slick.
 
Immediately after 911 they made new laws on religions that you could donate money to. Muammar Gaddafi donated money to Farrakhan. He gave him a humanitarian award. Well things like this has fell under strict control. They want blacks to get their money like they do, robbing, deceiving, murder, etc.

Yeah, but she's M.O.T. (member of the tribe), so they're blind to anything that they may see in others.

You are definitely ignorant. Where are you from? Is your governor perfect? I'm not not Haley supporter but I'm sure she is not different from your governor.
