By FITSNews || “We’ve already got a raghead in the White House, we don’t need another raghead in the governor’s mansion.”
That comment – made by S.C. Sen. Jakie Knotts during an internet talk show ten days ago – may end up handing the keys to the S.C. Governor’s Mansion to State Rep. Nikki Haley. It may also be the straw that broke the camel (or hippo)’s back as it relates to Knotts’ already precarious positioning within the SCGOP.
While the dust continues to settle from that, though, you can pay “tribute” to both Knotts and the party he represents with one of our new Jakie-themed T-shirts.
And while it’s not the Boss Hogg look you’d associate with Knotts’ “Good Ol’ Boy” persona, we think he looks pretty good in that turban …

So now the Repubs are commies too? Man, it won’t be long before calling someone a nazi, fascist, or communist–or in the case of Obama, all three, of course–will just have lost all its sting. Oh Karl Rove and Fox friends, do you see what you’ve done? Why does a smart girl like Nikki suffer such fools?

This is what you are left with?
While slightly humorous, one can’t help but think-oh, how the mighty have fallen.
By SnakeMD June 14, 2010 at 10:56 am
I don’t quite get the humor with the Commie hammer and sickle after the G. That logo belongs to the Obama administration. Also, the turban looks more like a Tammy Faye shower do-wrap than a Hindu wrap. I would prefer a picture of a country ham in a suit from Men’s Warehouse. Jake looks like a bloated transvestite going through menopause.
Also, I just heard on the national news that a US congressman from SC was caught on Video (You tube) assaulting a college student in DC. Here we go again!

Not even close to funny. Sad he said it and sad that you’ll make money off of it.

I can see a raghead on your T-shirt!

@SnakeMD
Rep. Etheridge is from NC, not SC, so share the fun.
By SnakeMD June 14, 2010 at 11:41 am
Thanks Tom. I was listening to Glenn Beck. He said ” SC.” I hope he didn’t get anything else wrong ;-)
By Stoioff June 14, 2010 at 11:47 am
Emmitt Till would be proud of this T-shirt. Knotts oozes with racial hatred.
By vicupstate June 14, 2010 at 11:57 am
Does Glenn Beck EVER get ANYTHING right?? If so, I haven’t heard it.

Just remember to order a XXXL when ordering Jake’s complementary T-shirt.

I know what jaikee sees, when he sees this Icon: “they want to squeeze, twist that towel tight as Krap so that my brains ooze out like a gallon of Shit!”
By George June 14, 2010 at 1:02 pm
Knotts looks like a fat woman in that turban.
By SubZeroIQ June 14, 2010 at 2:02 pm
Has any thought of being PROUD of Mr. Rwandhan for wearing his turban?
While I am neither Seikh nor Jewish, I feel pride when I see one of either faith wearing a turban or a yarmulke, even to the operating room.
They also tried to wear it to the U.S. Army, but a divided U.S. Supreme Court ruled the Army may ban yarmules for unit uniformity.
Nikki gage a moving victory speech, with her glorious brown hair flowing over her shoulders. She said her parents always reminded her how blessed they are to have immigrated to the U.S.
Please do not forget how blessed the U.S. IS WITH ITS IMMIGRANTS. Please also feel pride in the immigrants who hold on to their dress, languages and traditions.
I am proud of the East Asian women physicians who wear their Saris under their white lab coats. Nothing good can come from the desire to homogenize and denature everyone under a false goal of assimilation.
We should EMBRANCE BILINGUALISM, not attack it. You better appreciate the beauty of your native language when you learn to speak more.
Why don’t we learn of the great things immigrants bring?
Let me address a stereotype about India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, and demonstrate that it does not deserve the ridicule heaped on it: ARRANGED MARRIAGES.
Someone needs to explain to me how arranged marriage is so diferent from “Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire?” “The Bachelor,” “Who Wants to Marry an Idiot?” etc.?
It these shows ever worked, they aimed for arranged marriages by another name, except it is minus the family wisdom and caring and plus all the falsity and crassness of show business.
There is less divorce in East Indian families than in the U.S.
GO IMMIGRANTS! Wear your turbans, your Nehru Jackets, your genuine Kimonos, your Kilts, proudly. Do not dye your hair blond. Do not wear colored contact lenses. Every natural hair color and every natural eye color has its beauty. African Americans, do not straighten your hair or dye it orange or wear wigs made with nylon.
“I am black and beautiful, daughters of Jerusalem” says the Song of Solomon.
Sell T-shirts with a man with a turban; but let that man be Mr. Rwandhan, or Taghur, or any of the other turbaned men of achievement. And do not print a ridiculing slogan under it, but one of pride.

Why is Jakie still in office?
Why is Nikki still in office?
Can’t the leadership remove them due to inappropriate conduct????

Greetings, beautiful world!
Question!
Are you for 100 percent certain this is the porky Jakey of Lexington County?
Upon first viewing, I told my cousin Rajneesh it looks more like a happy pig after a lobotomy operation!
Rajneesh replied, “Perhaps it is a relative of Senator Oinky who has undergone the surgery!”
Then we began to speak of t-shirts we would like to make of the goddess darling Nikki Haley of Lexington County!
Good slogans for these t-shirts appear as following:
“I want to bang Nikki Haley, but all I got was this lousy t-shirt!”
“Nikki Haley for hot Governor! My other t-shirt is on my head!”
“Sikh and ye shall grind!” (With hot picture of Nikki!)
“Reincarnation is for lovers!” (With hot picture of Nikki!)
“What’s a little adultery among friends . . . or ALL your friends!” (With hot picture of Nikki!)
“I can see Nikki from my pants! (With hot picture of Nikki!)
Palin-Haley 2012!
I can see India from my house!
By Elmer June 14, 2010 at 3:14 pm
Bigotry and stupidity safely reside under that turban.
By Balsak Tee Baghar June 14, 2010 at 4:15 pm
Rajneesh is so crazy!
He won’t stop making these horny t-shirts!
His new shirts say:
“My kid made the honor roll, but I want to bang Nikki Haley!”
“South Carolina: Beautiful places, Governor Nikki sitting on your faces!”
“When the curry gets hot, the furry gets hotter!” (With hot picture of Nikki!)
“Who needs a pussy like Vincent Sheheen when beautiful pussy is exist?”
“My kid made love to Nikki and made the Honor Roll!”
Rajneesh, you are a Glenn Beckerhead and even more crazy for Nikki!
Palin-Haley 2012!
I can see India from my house!

Naughty Nikki T-Shirts are bound to be a best seller. Anybody wondering when dude number three is gonna speak up. If there are two….there are probably many more……..maybe not thousands……….but others.
By Rikki Rocket @ Married Women Looking For Men June 14, 2010 at 5:43 pm
Why looky here the Carolina Round Man has his own t-shirt.
By Richard Cranium June 14, 2010 at 6:16 pm
LMAO!
I love the shirt…someone’s gonna make millions. In the mean time why don’t you folks stop insulting Boss Hog and instead draw your comparisons to Jake being an undercover “Vogon”.

Many years ago George Lucas was traveling down US 1 and as he passed through Lexington County his car broke down. And it is a little know fact that Jakie Knotts took him in while his car was being repaired. George Lucas said he spent three days in that town (Lexington) one night. Boss Hawg took him around town and they even stopped by The Club to visit Jakie’s girls.
Several nights later when George got to his destination, and was in a reflective mood, he penned these words: “I will create a character Jabba the Hut…the name shall be used as a satirical literary device and as a political caricature to underscore negative qualities such as morbid obesity and corruption.” Thus a star was born. And now you know the rest of the story. What a small world we live in.

My Nikki shirt says “Fight racism: Vote Negro Lite”.
