By FITSNews || So let’s get this straight … we know for a fact that S.C. Rep. Nikki Haley is lying through her teeth every time she denies our founding editor’s claim that she had an “inappropriate physical relationship” with him in the Spring of 2007. On top of that, we also know for a fact that her political career could very well go down in flames if (and more likely “when”) this ticking time bomb goes off …
And yet we’re endorsing her for the 2010 S.C. Republican gubernatorial nomination anyway?
Correct.
Wait a minute … have we lost our minds? Seriously … HAVE WE LOST OUR FRIGGIN’ MINDS?
Indubitably so, but the fact remains that this election (at least to us) isn’t about whether Haley is telling the truth regarding Sic Willie’s claim – or a subsequent claim made by lobbyist Larry Marchant – it’s about the hundreds of millions of dollars that will likely be saved as a result of her winning the general election in November.
“It’s all about the Benjamins,” in other words.
And the bottom line for S.C. taxpayers is that Haley would vote the right way on the S.C. Budget and Control Board, use her veto pen to reduce the size and scope of government and sign a universal parental choice bill which would (at long last) provide parents with real options and our flawed system with real, market-based accountability. Also, all signs are that Haley would aggressively pursue government restructuring – although it’s probably fair to say that her credibility when it comes to government transparency (her signature issue up to this point) has been pretty much shot.
Oh well … there are plenty of us who can continue leading the way on that fight.
Will Haley cut taxes, too? She hasn’t been as specific on that issue as we’d like related to individual income tax brackets, but neither has U.S. Rep. Gresham Barrett – and as far as we can tell his so-called jobs plan would move our state in precisely the opposite direction it should be going.
Given all of this … in spite of our intimate knowledge of her lack of forthrightness – and in spite of the merciless smear campaign her supporters have waged against us over the past month – we are endorsing Nikki Haley in next Tuesday’s Republican gubernatorial primary against Barrett.
Sure, a candidate lying about their personal life is a damn good reason not to vote for them – and to anyone who asks whether or not Haley can be trusted to keep her word, the obvious answer is “no.” She can’t.
Of course our favorite modern-day president – Bill Clinton – clearly lied about the fact that he had sexual relations outside the bounds of his marriage. But Clinton also cut our capital gains taxes, pushed for free trade and worked with Republicans to pass welfare reform (which President Barack Obama unfortunately overturned last February).
In light of all that, should it matter that he lied about Monica Lewinsky?
There’s also a “people in glass houses” argument that can be made with respect to this campaign. Specifically, Barrett – who has trumpeted both his Christianity and fidelity on the campaign trail – is widely-rumored to have had an affair with a former staffer. We also know for a fact that Barrett is lying through his teeth when he says that his campaign had “nothing to do” with the pressure that was placed on our founding editor to come forward last month with his acknowledgment.
The truth is that Barrett’s people were indeed pushing a story, local media were indeed chasing it down and our founding editor felt he had no choice but to preemptively address the situation.
Obviously, Haley’s response to all of this disgusts us. After she was given the widest possible avenue to address the situation honestly, she choose instead to lie, deny, evade, stonewall, smear and keep public information hidden from the public view. And her response has “worked” – although we would remind her as a “converted Christian” to go back and read Matthew 16:26. We would also encourage her to go back and listen to this song.
Yeah …
We also feel badly for her husband, Michael, who no doubt views the “circumstantial” evidence that’s been released to date a bit differently than the general public does.
Of course as upsetting as Haley’s reaction to all of this has been, it’s not like her election would mark a significant decline in gubernatorial integrity. After all, we’ve had a liar in the governor’s office for the last eight years – and as far as we can tell that hasn’t stopped him (in most cases) from fulfilling his fiduciary responsibility to the taxpayers.
Now Sanford should have stepped down, in our opinion, and his failure to do so irreparably fractured the state’s reform movement, but the fact remains that he and Haley have been better stewards of our tax dollars than Gresham Barrett and Vincent Sheheen.
And that’s what it boils down to for us – the dollars. Given South Carolina’s historic lack of economic competitiveness, this state simply cannot afford eight year of Gresham Barrett or four years of Vincent Sheheen.
That’s why in the most conflicted sense imaginable we endorse Haley – although as we’ve said in the past, buyer beware.

By strom2012 June 18, 2010 at 1:38 pm
I feel that the impending election of Nikki was like voting for almost 94-year old Strom Thurmond in 1996. yeah, to calls of he’d be 100 if re-elected and survived his term we scoffed — there’s not much difference in 94 and 100 in everybody’s mind. The jokes were that Strom would be at my funeral or an honorary pallbearer at my unborn greaat-great grandchildren’s funeral. Deep down we knew this could have been a big mistake.
What does this have to do with Nikki. Even though she’s teflon to Sic’s and LM’s charges and seems to get more votes with them, there’s a long time until November. Even after November, if shoes drop or she pulls a Sanford, the teflon will have worn off, the movement and policy agenda wrecked. Too queasy a feeling about this.

I’d like to hear a statement from her husband. And from Mrs. Sic.
The problem w/ politicians having this kind of baggage in their personal lives leads to them being unable to do their jobs. For ie, say Haley is trying to pass a bill & trying to get the votes & support she needs from her peers. Her peers find out about this. They feel if her own family can’t trust her, why should they?
Yeah this stuff happens w/ ordinary folks all but ordinary folks aren’t responsible for the handling of taxpayers $. Period.
Furthermore, there’s the issues of her not remembering where she sat on a plane & transparency in government. How can she expose corruption when she is hiding from the proverbial sunlight?
The proverbial straw is that she had kids & husband.

hahaha this is pretty laughable…you justify your endorsement of Haley by citing Bill Clinton’s affair as a reference. I didn’t see Monica Lewinsky going on the record to extol the virtues of Mr. Clinton’s political savvy after her little dress got a stain on it. You kill me Folks…why are you insistent on diminishing the iota of credibility you still had…I just don’t get it.
Take that back, this isn’t laughable this is pathetic. What self respecting “man” would allow a former friend and lover to:
1. assail him in public to the point of barely even acknowledging his existence, and
2. systematically try to destroy his credibility and career?
YET still “endorse” that individual for anything besides a full-on assault to reveal who she really is. I can’t believe you, you went head to head with this woman and she stared you down, took your lunch money, sent you scurrying back to your momma’s house crying…only to return the next day to punch yourself in the face and hand over your lunch to her on bended knee…wow…classic.
I would ask if you are a man or a mouse Folks but your little endorsment just made that a rhetorical question.

So, you worked for Sanford and now you don’t have much good to say for him, you accused Haley of “inappropriate” behavior, yet endorse her saying she would be better than Barrett or Sheheen, even though you hate the way she lied..well I”m almost speechless.
What is this fascination with school vouchers…they won’t help the average South Carolinian send their children to one of the top private schools as tuition is simply out of reach, and will pull money away from public schools. Sure, Haley says she will cut taxes, but how else do you intend to pay for things the people of this state need, including I guess trips to China for state legislators.
I”m just bewildered here, it makes no sense…maybe its a libertarian thing, I don’t know. I know the answer can’t be as simple as it looks to be, even you are not that out of touch.

Anyone with any common sense – and Haley’s husband, as pointed out – will have realized that the texts, phone logs etc very clearly indicate that something happened. And yet the media have been content to just sit back and report on ‘The blogger making these accusations’ and wow, isn’t it all so sensational and crazy, but not a single one seems to have made any effort at all to chase the story and pin down the Haley campaign on their obvious lies. Haley claimed Folks was just some guy who did a little writing for her – and yet she called him dozens of times late at night for hours on end, until five am? Someone needs to ask her to explain that! Rather than letting her say she’s like a tiger and moving on. Her campaign manager confirms he sent several texts to Folks checking up on whether or not the story would run, and telling him that if they can just keep this whole thing under wraps Haley would win – and yet also claims this was a story he knew to be fake. And the media just goes ‘Oh, okay’, asks no follow-ups and reports it at face value.
The legacy media reporting on this have done their best to paint this as ‘lunatic blogger makes claim funny’, but it’s shown very starkly that they have no clue, and their time is up. Part of me is reminded of Colbert’s superb WHC roast in which he didn’t just attack Bush but took the hacks in the room to task for allowing him and his cohorts to claim all sorts of BS while they were working on lame novels about intrepid reporters seeking out the truth – ‘you know, fiction’. And part of me feels like Chris Morris having to scream through Peter O’Hanra-Hanrahan’s earpiece ‘Minister, did you or did you not lie to the House?’

But the intriguing part of the thread is the unknown. Haley has not sued and Will preserves the option of playing what he wants when he wants. “Legacy” media (love that term) will also dig hard on this if Sheheen is close.
I am firmly in the “Will did it for the hits” camp but I have no doubt that he is telling the truth about what happened.
Also did those phone calls take place when Haley’s husband was deployed? That would be revealing. Did her visits to Will’s home also occur when he was deployed?

She is unquestionably smarter and more conservative than Gresham or She-heen, and that’s good enough for me (plus I would like seeing her on TV for the next 4 or 8 years versus either of the other two). So you liberals (or democrats, the words are interchangeable) go on getting your kicks flaming her. The grown up conservatives of this state are going to elect her.

By jim June 18, 2010 at 8:43 pm
this is pretty much a they voted for nikki because they didnt believe will so lets endorser her and hope it will turn people off scheme not gonna work here.

Balsak is a she?? Hmmm, that’s probable. Perhaps, Balsak is Mrs.Folks. I could definitely see it. It certainly would explain many things but this is merely speculation.

I was not aware that the next Gov of SC would control the Budget and Control Board and also have all the votes in the General Assembly. I guess Sic Willie thinks we were all born yesterday. This is the same old BS he and his buds sold the masses to get Sanfraud into office. How did that work out? Whoever gets elected will find out the view inside is a hellva lot different than the view from outside.

Having worked for the cum bucket named Haley, all I can say that, if and when she wins Tuesday, the jackasses will hold triple kegers in the Gov’s mansion nightly. Having been close to both her and Sic; that’s right Sic, I know about her bumping and grinding, not to mention the fact her and the hub didn’t live together until about 2 months ago…great job Haley supporters!!!!!!

By victoria2dc June 18, 2010 at 10:33 pm
Folks, don’t you get it? How can you think that her *character* has nothing to do with her ability to run the state? Do you remember Bush and Cheney’s lies that took us to war and killed a few hundred thousand people or more, but we’ll never know because they covered-up the facts? It doesn’t matter if you’re R or D, character matters!
Remember what happened when Wall Street bankers screwed us and created the collapse of our economy. Remember that what happened in the Gulf of Mexico was ultimately the result of the corruption and character flaws of the corporate culture that put profit over safety and was responsible for the loss of life of 11 human beings? Remember what happened in South Carolina when the textile industry was destroyed by those who wanted slave labor from China and were responsible for the entire collapse of your textile industry and the loss of jobs for how many of you? Was there anyone in your state government who tried to help save jobs or create new ones? Think about it.
What will it take to wake up the people of South Carolina that character DOES count and that it has nothing to do with which political party you’re a member of… it’s about public service! If you vote for this woman because Romney and Palin paid off Mr. Folks and others to endorse her, the you’ve voted against your own self-interest! Don’t you get it? Those corrupt officials are suddenly in charge of YOUR lives and how you live them? If you don’t get that, then I feel sorry for you. Imagine what life in SC could be like if someone sitting in key positions in your government were people capable of creating new jobs, revitalizing industry and manufacturing in your state. Look back at his administration and see what he did for you. Nada/zip. He didn’t even care about his own children and didn’t even have enough sense to realize that he couldn’t lie to the press and walk away from his responsibilities to YOU! You don’t get that either or you would have thrown his ass out of office. How embarrassing for the people of SC.
Wake up SC!

If you vote for Haley, you vote for 4 more years of the same crap we’ve had for the last 8 years – except that she doesn’t come close to possessing the intellect of a Mark Sanford. This woman was in last place until she was endorsed by rocket scientist Sarah Palin – which tells you that our voters are dumb as all get out (example: Alvin Greene).
Hope Sheheen wins in a landslide against this “transparent” (because she has no brains and you can see through her head) candidate.

and for some, what’s the value of being able to take down naughty nikki and hand the sc gov’s seat to a dem? priceless.
looks like sic is betting they don’t have or aren’t gonna play the card. so his wagon is tied to hers and he’s all in. the luv gov seat or bust!

Slick Willie’s double talk and double speak and bold faced lies;
Willie knows that the massive smear/low life dirty tricks campaign launched by him against Haley on behalf of her political opponents has not worked. The trash that he has thrown at Haley under multiple IDs has had no effect. It is obvious that he has tried to spit towards the sky but it has fallen on own face.
Slick– she does not need your endorsement. Who the Fuck are you?? You did every thing possible and despicable which even the worst enemy will think a million times before doing. Now you are drowning in your own trash, hatred, and slime. No body asked for your endorsement. you are like a stray barking dog unnecessarily trying for attention. You still have this fantasy about so called ticking bomb?? If you had anything you would have already cashed it long time ago.
Have you ever thought about it and and repented for what you have done to your self?? But I can assure you- nay guarantee you, that what goes around, always comes around. Nature has strange ways of doing justice. I Can see from the way you are behaving that how scared and disturbed you are and I doubt you can even sleep at night.
By Calhoun Fawls June 19, 2010 at 5:03 am
Wow. What a shock. You fall on the grenade for her by half assing your allegations and then your blog endorses her. Even Forrest Barret had to see that coming.
Still, three things bother me. First, how many times did she take the CPA exam? Second, has she ever worked a real job outside of working for family? Third, why in the Hell did she not show up to do the hard legislative work on her own bills?
She is going to beat Forrest Barrett into the ground. But, eventually, you got to start thinking about about the well being of the state and put politics aside. Only one real job that she rarely shows up to do. Potential affairs that will put SC on the late night talk shows again. Can we really afford putting the Conservative version of Obama in the SC Governor’s Mansion?

Sure hope Sheheen is doing his opposition research…wonder how long it will take Sic Willie, Gresham, Bauer, Jakie Knotts, and all the Republicans to start crying sexism and racism against Sheheen when he tries a few of their tactics on Haley? Sheheen really just needs to get the word out that Haley is Sanfords idealogical twin. You couldn’t tell it by this blog, but there are people who actually care what happens to this state, and those are the voters Sheheen needs to reach.

But…….he may have run out of poop. So, we need others to step up. Larry did, but where is he now??? If he did romp with her…..think of all the possibilities!!!! He could shop a reenactment….political scandal sells big time. She is running for Governor.

What I do not get is this argument that Sic “the blogger” has no game. On the campaign he got fired after the election bc he was nailing Meredith Land. Freakin’ MEREDITH LAND.

His ex Ashley Joy Smith is also SMOKING HOT and before that he dated Katie Dunning who is probably the hottest piece of ass to ever walk through the Statehouse lobby.

What did she do for the money??? Where is the accountability? Why did she quit? Was it on a contract basis?? Why hire her…….a politician??? Heck!! Instead of hiring a lobbyist to lobby politicians, that hospital hired THE POLITICIAN. Whoa. Conflicts of interest? Her voting record on health care?? Did the hopital CEO know of this arrangement? The Board of Directors? Who did she report to? Did anyone report to her? With little accounting experience, why hire her? That hospital could have found someone more qualified…… Therefore, was she hired for political influence??? I don’t know, I’m just a shaggy sheepdog, but if the DEMS do due diligience…..

Once, this small state produced some statesmen/women. Now we produce politicians. What’s the old saying, “A statesman thinks of the next generation while a politician thinks of the next election?” I’ve spent a number of nights as a guest in the Governor’s mansion when we had a statesman for governor and it makes me sad to view the current occupant and potential occupants of the building. Makes me want to take a can of Lysol and sterilize the place. Better still, after the Gov mansion, lets go over to the State House and spray it down too.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 11:23 am
You know…….Bush had the entire Oval Office triple washed after Clinton left. If Clinton left stains on dresses……they had to be everywhere. Same applies to the SC Gov Mansion if a statesman decides to run. The Statesman will triple wash the whole place. If a politician wins, he or she won’t bother, they are used to stains.

By Legal Eagle June 19, 2010 at 11:28 am
Countryboy,
It’s moron Glen Beck disciples like yourself that is everything wrong with the voter. They hear a snippet and the word conservative and it automatically qualifies a candidate. Do some research and educate yourself and you will find that Mrs. Nimrata Randhawa “Nikki” Haley isn’t who she says she is, and that means everything.
She got 1 piece of legislation passed in 6 years, which was to not require hairwashers to get a cosmetology license. That was a pressing need if I recall. Anyone of the 170 members can file a bill, as many as they want. That’s all Haley has done, file bills and then say this is who she is. She has yet to engage herself in the process of actually trying to pass those bills. It’s like with anything, you have to work hard and work with others to get it done. She simply refuses to do so, rather she pays everyone lip service and blames the “system”. You know the same system that has been around since the late 1700′s (Washington, Adams, Jefforson, Lincoln….you get the point)
She has lied on TV and in print about her relationships with at least 2 people and where there’s smoke, there’s fire. She has failed herself to be “transparent” yet sells the BS to the public.
She claims she barely talks with Sanford, yet she was his staunchest ally and was his hand picked successor. She is very close with his staff, which may be the worst staff ever in the history of government (just ask the ones who left voluntarily) and when she’s asked questions about has certain parts of government work she “isn’t real sure”.
So in conclusion Countryboy, only because I refuse to continue educating someone who doesn’t want to learn, you need to really study up before making such asinine and ill informed commments. Either that or just don’t vote, and save yourself some dignity.

Soooo……Marchant – I know you were drunk, but come on. Endless details, why simply take a lie detector??? Make a nice list of the best details….give a copy to Willie for verification, and then post it on a dozen blogs. Can you say Wild Fire? I can’t believe you gave up? What a potential jab at Palin……you could prove that Mitt wasted that 30K. Ms. Jenny would have to backtrack. Mr. Mark would no longer have to worry about those missing tapes.

Can Christians screw around while the hubby is deployed?

So, what does this mean? She is proud for her hubby’s work in the military, and then tears up some strange booty while he is deployed. And she is running for Governor???

This post perfectly highlights the best definition of a Libertarian that I’ve come across: “Libertarians are conservatives who want to keep their vices.”
Sic Willey doesn’t give a damn about a person’s character, or the degree to which their obvious flaws affect the kind of decisions they make, in private or in public. As long as the person can tow the sacred fiscal line, then everything else can be brushed aside. It’s pretty sad when saving a buck is more important than living a virtuous life. The more you Libertarians peel back your layers, the better someone like Sheheen looks.

My relatives tell me that they hate the show, but don’t mind all the tourists from around the world going to Jersey Shore.

I think Florida Watching is in a manic phase. Only matter of time before he switches to a different screen name and starts spewing more unintelligible blather. You need to find a boyfriend stat.
Bipolar disorder — sometimes called manic-depressive disorder — causes mood swings that range from of the lows of depression to the highs of mania. When you become depressed, you may feel sad or hopeless and lose interest or pleasure in most activities. When your mood shifts in the other direction, you may feel euphoric and full of energy. Mood shifts may only occur only a few times a year, or as often as several times a day. In some cases, bipolar disorder causes symptoms of depression and mania at the same time.
Although bipolar disorder is a disruptive, long-term condition, you can keep your moods in check by following a treatment plan. In most cases, bipolar disorder can be controlled with medications and psychological counseling (psychotherapy).
By countryboy June 19, 2010 at 5:29 pm
Legal Eagle – FYI genius, I can’t f’ing stand Glenn Beck. Doesn’t bother me a bit that Mrs. Haley hasn’t gotten any important legislation passed. Who has in the sorry assed South Carolina legislature? I readily admit I don’t follow the SC legislature closely because they don’t do jack in Columbia other than try to perpetuate getting re-elected. But, I believe Mrs. Haley is smarter than Gresham and might get more done. And she damn sure will be better for South Carolina than She-heen (aka Obama white and lite). In conclusion, nothing you can say will change my mind about voting for Mrs. Haley, so take your liberal $hit somewhere else. Oh, and take that other genius, Florida Watching with you.

Serious analysis on why Nikki Haley is the real deal.
1) Has a simple message that is very appealing to SC
2) She is very focused and disciplined
3) She is very articulate and connects real well with people
4) She is very attractive, yet tough and tested in the SC muck
5) She is very likable; if you don’t have this, everything else does not matter
She is a 5 star candidate, primed to go to the NFL as a potential first pick. She has very few weaknesses. Even Chris Matthews agrees with my assessment. She is a real threat to both GOP and Dems. This is coming from a lifelong Democrat who is left of Obama.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 6:04 pm
Countryboy – It doesn’t bother you that Nasty Nikki has done nothing for 6 years in the State House? What makes you think she will do anything in 4 years as a Governor? She may trash up the Gov. Mansion …. something that will take tax dollars to clean.
But please continue with your rebuttals. As Haley supporters, you, as well as Gary, James, and Snapper have offered absolutely nothing. Nada, zip. The Haley Camp needs to be concerned if this is the best they (you)can do.
Anyway, continue on…….this is fun.

Since there is obviously no proof, the only way to “know” is if you were there. That means that you are still employing this silly convention of writing about yourself in the 3rd person.
Here’s why you would endorse Haley: To try and gain credibility for your claim that you must be telling the truth because you are in fact backing her. Transparent indeed.

Florida watching – When are you gong to see what is actually going on here? Will Folks keeps pumping you full of heroin and the supply of Ibogaine is running low. You keep hanging on, chasing that phantom carrot hanging from a stick. Round and round and round you go. There is no more – no pictures, no tapes, no cams, no friggin anything. Was it the endorsement by Sarah Plain that flared your nostrils? Is that how you got duped into buying this fare? Don’t get me wrong; It welcomes you to stay. It needs the company. All aboard. Down and round and down we go – past some things it can’t begin to know – past some things with buttoneers and ribbons – past some smiles that ooze and dribble – past some signs that cheer for it. I just don’t want you to be disappointed when it screams out “where the f are we headed?”, and everyone else wonders why it didn’t know. I’m just afraid you’ll still be waiting when the conductor yells out “To hell with it” and the train slows to a stop.

Countryboy,
My apologies. I will give you credit for despising Glenn Beck. Personally I can’t stand him or Olberman. As for calling me a liberal, whoa nelly, careful now. Just because I don’t support Nikki doesn’t make me liberal. I just find it odd that someone who has done nothing, missed meetings, missed votes, fails to disclose income, fails to disclose emails and records to the public, votes for the stimulus and 5 out of 6 budgets, yet then runs on platform of leadership, transparency and fiscal responsibility —– NONE OF WHICH SHE HAS DONE—– she’s all talk, just like Marky Mark, so I suggest that if you want 4-8 more years of that then vote away.

Although I did enjoy your yarn…..all I have to do is sputter some gutter talk to draw all you Haley supporters into an ambush……while comments from people like Legal zero in for the kill. Where is your defense??? You can’t defend Hypocrisy Haley by attacking a shaggy sheepdog from Texas. You can’t even begin to reply to Legal. You have no clue. It’s like trying to defend Marky Mark…….how can you defend that?? It is impossible, right?
It’s like you guys trying to build a snowman with salt. I know they are both white……but………….

1. Her voting record.
2. Her late night activities.
3. Her gig at the hospital.
4. Her lack of state GOP support.
5. Her fights with GOP leadership.
6. Her moneymaker stuffed with Mitt’s dough.
She is like the perfect opponent. Where to begin? Gresham just plain gave up weeks ago. McMaster sold his soul. Andre………whew.

Takes a long time to become one of the “good old boys” and a lot of back room wheelin’ and dealin’. Counties like mine have worthless people (ex-used car salesman Ted Vick in ours) just filling seats and voting the way the power boys tell them to vote. Again, there are three choices – Haley, Barrett and She-heen. I just believe Haley is the best of the three, because I will never, ever vote for anyone who supports Obama or his agenda.

Have you ever watched the movie sting? Gondorff (Paul Newman) is playing poker on a train with Lonnegan (Robert Shaw). They are both going to cheat. Gondorff wins because he was a better cheater than the thug Lonnegan. That scene reminds me of South Carolina politics. Up to this point you have had Lonnegan types running the place. Nikki Haley has learned from the masters in SC Poltics and is better at the game than the thugs that are running the place. You have to admit that Nikki knows how to beat up guys at their own game. She is the Gondorff of SC Politics.
You folks ought to be proud of what she has accomplished. She will be a genuine American hero after Tuesday.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 9:26 pm

Sanford dug the hole, Nikki nailed the coffin (among other things)………oooooooooo there is your clue, snapper, chase the sheepdog, come on boy. But you know, Palin needs to hug Nikki a few more times, Mitt needs to fill that moneymaker some more, Ms Jenny needs to wake up……..Sic’s lawyers will give the green light, and here comes the confessions……I mean………….Down goes Nikki and Palin (biblical sense), Mitt loses SC big time for 2012. And….all is good.

Snapper – Dang, forgot. James needs you to help wax my car. He claims his knees are sore from helping Clemson’s summer session. I can’t trust you will my ragtop, but the bus needs someone with a long reach and no brains. Speaking of that, kinda sounds like Naughty Nikki, eh? I hear she actually got a hairwasher bill passed in her six years at the State House. Tax dollars hard at work there. Can you add anything to that? No? Ok, keep on.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 9:40 pm
Snapper – Sorry man. I forgot about my rose beds. James said he would trim the grass around them, but we need you to soft wipe the petals and sing to them. Sing a song about productivity, something which is lacking in the Naughty Nikki work ethic department. Any rebuttal? Defense? No? Ok.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 9:44 pm
Snapper – Rats, forgot about that hospital gig. You seem to know alot about doctors and medicine. Could you find out what Naught Nikki did for a hospital at 100K partime while pretending to work at the State House??? Hmmmm, I know…..sounds like conflict somewhere, but do be a sport and report back to me when you can.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 9:46 pm

By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 9:51 pm
Snapper – some guy from BP wants you to stop sucking oil out of the gulf. He appreciates the help, but you are kinda in the way….sorta like what Nikki did when she entered the primary and ruined the plans of tens of thousands of GOP members. They won’t forget. BTW, didn’t the site dude tell you to spit that crap into a bucket??? Kinda like Nikki after Mitt loaded her moneymaker with 20s.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 10:02 pm
Bill – Yes, Sting is a great movie. The thing is ……… after six years, I’m afraid Nikki didn’t learn anything except how to piss off the leadership. She grabbed onto Sanford’s coattails, and perhaps other things, and actually was quite ineffective and non-productive. What with her juggling the hospital gigs, and satisfying the dudes…..she had no time. She only jumped from fourth to first because of Palin, Mitt, and Jenny. She was so surprised she jumped out of her panties, which were auctioned off on eBay. Kidding aside, no…..Nikki is a very inexperienced politician, the worst of the lot. You can thank Palin for screwing up the state GOP and putting the state in this fine mess. Sorry.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 10:10 pm
Countryboy – The thing is – Naughty Nikki has scorched all bridges with the State House. With her as Gov., there will be complete gridlock. Heck, the GOP will fight her worse than the Dems. Heck, Lindsey Lohan would make a better Gov than Haley. I know…..three crappy choices, you can blame that on Palin. McMasters or Gresham really would be better, but Palin got the crazy aunt’s out of the attics……and an inexperienced nobody is gonna win the primary on Tuesday.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 10:17 pm
Snapper – I threw the crazy aunt’s bit in there just for you. Now, just copy and paste it with a reference to mania. Seens that the Haley camp told you to try a “scorch the earth” ploy against ol sheepdog. Thing is snapper….it’s kinda lame, kinda old. I keep throwing digs at Haley and you can’t defend her. Quite entertaining. You and James working out of the same cubicle??? Tim must be ape-shit that this banter is actually bringing out some interesting views. Giving us a chance to tweak them (spin) in the right direction.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 10:29 pm
Sic Willie – You talking with Tim anymore? I think he is trying to throw this thread off point. Not that I can blame him. Anything can be directed back to Holy Haley. Do me a favor….I think one of the smoking guns has to do with that hospital gig she quit. Throw up a picture, a nice article, and lets discuss it. Plus, how about her husband in uniform. Must be easy, according to her he wears it everyday of the week. Just a suggestion.
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 10:41 pm
Snapper – You and James can clean up now. It is getting late….with the rain coming, you both might have to re-polish them tomorrow. Speaking of polishing, who do you really believe had the most polished campaign going into the general election???
By Florida Watching June 19, 2010 at 10:47 pm
James – Snapper forgot what I told him. You two can quit, sorta like what Nikki will end up doing when those DNA tests come back. You know, at least she didn’t testify in front of Congress like Roger Clemons did. Whew, all that lying…..trying to get the stories straight….Nikki needs to stay away from oaths…….perjury is a bitch. What kinda oath is there for GOV????
Now boys, brings on some more of that copy/paste mania off point stuff tomorrow. I’ve got eight hours of the US OPEN tomorrow. Nite.
By CommonSensePatriot June 20, 2010 at 12:09 am
49 percent of the votes Nikki got in the primary included Repubs, independents and many Demos. Anyone connected to Obama like Sheheen is will certainly see Demos. flock to Nikki this Nov. Nikki’s message brought out most of her support in the primary regardless of who endorsed her.With all her positives and I do know a little something about politics having been elected 7 times, most people vote on postive messages that candidates bring to the table. Nikki Haley will be the next Governor of SC and she will do it in record breaking fashion this Nov.
By C20H26N2O June 20, 2010 at 1:02 am
Last chance Will, either drop the bomb or I….. oh yea, I almost forgot; you endorsed her. I told all you liberal dummies that something much more complex had happened here. But you’re so ignorant and incapable of complex analysis, you completely missed it. Try to stay focused next time. Such is your analysis of the new super-conservative movement. You’re so afraid of us, you have to twist stories, malign us with any single negative event where we might be present, and paint us as racist. You have no real knowledge of who we are or what were are about. We will crush you at the ballot box. We do not answer polling questions(or we deliberately give erroneous info). That is the reason Haley did so well. We are not tied to any specific religion, although most of us are Christian. We do not need Palin or Romney, although we welcome all who believe in the TP philosopy. To represent our party, you either prove you are conservative, or you get out. We are in the process of recalling all RINOs and replacing them with the real-deal. Once this is complete, you will see an upswing in the economy. If it fails, we are doomed to socialism.
By Roger Wilco June 20, 2010 at 8:35 am
Common – Please name Nikki’s positives. Not that she is pretty, or articulate, or is good with people. Real positives which help lead a state. She is not running for First Lady. Positive messages are meaningless without the resources to support them. Does Nikki have any?

But you’re right, if people like Angle actually make it to Washington, then I’ll be very afraid. In Haley’s case, I wouldn’t take too much credit if I were you…it’s more like the people in SC who are Republican anyway will vote for her….it’s not such a cakewalk in other parts of the country.
By Pam June 20, 2010 at 9:59 am
Seems to be very little debate about Nikki’s affairs. Why indeed would Jenny endorse her? Jenny’s husband is no better.

Roger Wilco-One look at Nikki’s website and her conservative, common sense approach to governing is.why Nikki is resonating with so many voters in SC. Believe it or not much of her support is coming from Demos who want no part of the Obama-Sheheen liberal and socialist agenda for SC. After Nikki’s endorsement by S. Palin and M. Romney her lead did go to 12 points.After the 1st.negative slam at Nikki her numbers went to 16 points. After the 2nd.slam by Marchant Nikki’s lead grew to 21 points on June 8th.The actual win by over 27 points shows how sound her message was to the voters and people of SC.Case closed. The next Governor of SC- Nikki Haley.

And yes, it is only the wave of Palin and Romney followers who lifted her past three more experienced, qualified and professional politicians. The rep voters were voting for Palin thru Nikki. The dems voted for the weakest candidate for the general election. Sanford ruined the GOP forever.

Or you and Tim Pearson? Ever met Romney? He really stretched the bounds of PAC limits with his support of Haley. Apparently it is legal, but hardly ethical in terms of the spirit of the law. He could twist arms, triple the PACs and contributions for a questionable candidate. What do you think?
By Zuma Bound June 20, 2010 at 2:39 pm
On June 18th at 5:00 pm, Be A Man said, “Give it up butt fucker! Why do you insist on your claim that she banged you? You have not proven anything, and you haven’t provided any information that a second rate admin could have gotten, so why still throw statements into your articles about NH lying? Clearly, you’re the liar. And, not only did you lie about the affair, you also lied when you promised to prove you had it.”
On June 19th at 7:18 pm, Countryboy said, “I don’t give a rat’s ass what Mrs. Haley did or did not do with her body. WTF does it have to do with her qualifications for the job and her ability to do it.”
Be A Man – Homeboy, if you don’t hear the drumbeat by now, you never will. Folks clearly has his own timetable. If you choose to interpret the endorsement that he gave to Nimrata (“Nikki”) Randhawa Haley [tip of the hat, a tongue-in-cheek "shout out", if you will, to everyone out there suffering from Obama Derangement Syndrome and the pathological, compulsive need to refer to the President as Barack HUSSEIN Obama, clownishly EMPHASIZING his middle name], while calling her a liar in the strongest terms, to date, do so at your own peril. The steady drumbeat has grown stronger still with this latest pronouncement. As Folks is wont to say, “Stay tuned.” Be A Man, it truly is JUST a matter of time. As frustrating as having to wait for it might be to the impatient or, more importantly, as frightening as the possibility that Folks has the goods on Haley might be to the Haley-partisans among us, the fact of the matter is that the proof of Haley’s deception is coming. Haley apologists/partisans like Be A Man can whistle/scream/stamp their feet in the dark all they want, irrationally trying to tamp down their fears about what Folks may have in the way of proof. It may make them feel better temporarily, but it won’t change the inevitable outcome. If Folks has the proof he says he does, and he does, it doesn’t matter when he releases it. If it occurs before the election, she won’t be elected. If it occurs after the election, she’ll be forced to resign, if by nothing other than her pre-election promise to resign if proven to be a liar.
But, that said, Be A Man and all the other Haley-apologists out there, hysterically yell and scream all you want at Folks, call him a liar to your heart’s content, it won’t change a thing, other than to increase the amount of egg you will have to eventually wipe off of your face.
One other thing, Be A Man, calling Folks a “butt fucker” doesn’t change anything, so I wonder why people like you relish throwing the “f*gg*t” thing around with such abandon at the drop of a hat like a fifth grade schoolboy trying to “cut low” one of his classmates by mindlessly impugning his sexuality. It seems to be a standard attack technique employed by the “mouthbreathers” here to downplay/disparage what people like Folks and Marchant have had to say. In any event, Be A Man, that said, do you kiss your children with that mouth?! Grow up, huh?
For the record, Countryboy, I agree with you that Haley doing whatever she wants to with her body doesn’t have anything to do with her ability to perform the duties she would have if elected Governor. Where you and I part company is that I believe that a willingness to lie about it has a A LOT to do with it.
Parenthetically, I wish people, well, in truth, men, would stop tripping on Haley’s looks/sex appeal, Bill, for example, who cited her “attractiveness” as a viable reason for supporting her. In the first place, it simply is. . .not. . .a. . .relevant. . .factor. This isn’t a beauty contest, it’s an election for an important government position. In the second place, guys, please get a grip. Women like Nikki Haley and Sarah Palin are okay-looking, the kind of women that old, over-the-hill, white guys who long ago lost the ability to get truly “fine” women, if they EVER had it, lose their minds over. I’ll concede that Nikki Haley is more attractive than a Madeleine Albright or an Elena Kagan, but THAT is about as far as I am willing to go.
By the way, irrelevant as it might be to her ability to govern, I will say that Haley’s posterior does look good in a skirt, but her face has only a marginally exotic appeal, and her inability to fill out a sweater properly drags her body/looks/sex appeal down to the level of average, to the level of the schoolmarmish and borderline librarian.
All right, anyway, everybody just needs to chill for a minute. Folks has the goods, AND we’ll have them soon enough. It is just going to happen as he sees “fit[s]“, on HIS timetable, not ours.

Quite right Zuma. Will has more at stake than Larry, but between the two…oh yes there is evidence. Plenty of it. I blame this all on Tim Pearson for the approach taken.

Poor Haley took the advice of her manager, and is now in a desperate situation. This can only turn out badly.
By Dr. Implant June 20, 2010 at 3:05 pm

WWoman-Check out latest polling numbers that show Nikki with a 21 point lead in the General Election with the Obama-Sheheen ticket and those numbers will go up. Repubs, Indep., and yes many Demos picked the best Candidate on June 8th for SC Nikki Haley, not the weakest candidate.

Again, gutter talk. As soon as one single Haley supporter brings up one single defense on her part, I will listen.
Balsak, you be missing a great party. How often do you get a swinger leading the GOV race??? With a mormon pumping her moneymaker. (Too funny to be true…..but it is……..)

SC is the state of love…..I will vote for Haley…..that way she will attract more businessmen to the state and create more jobs….She is creative and has staminna for the grueling job ahead….

By HMMM June 20, 2010 at 6:35 pm
This is ridiculous, on so many levels. You call for Sanford to resign because of his affair, you badger Barrett about his affair, you have first hand knowledge of Nikki’s affair, and yet you endorse her.
You are unprincipled. I’m posting this comment and deleting your blog from my bookmarks. I won’t be back.

WELCOME BACK BALSAK !!!!
THESE DICK WEED CONSERVATIVES ARE BRAINWASHED !!!!!!
World Cup – Brazil beat Ivory Coast. Kaka got red carded.
US Open – The leader tanked, lots near the top.
If any of you conservative turds wanna discuss Tricky Nikki’s lack of qualifications and accomplishments……let me know. Other than that, there is too much good TV Sports to watch.
PS – Piss off snapper – you worthless chicken-choker.

Now why in beaver town would the government need to want to regulate hairwashers???? You know, if it wasn’t for this tramp action……none of this other BS would surface, you know?

C20H26N2O said the following on June 20th, 2010 at 1:02 am:
“Last chance Will, either drop the bomb or I….. oh yea, I almost forgot; you endorsed her. I told all you liberal dummies that something much more complex had happened here. But you’re so ignorant and incapable of complex analysis, you completely missed it. Try to stay focused next time. Such is your analysis of the new super-conservative movement. You’re so afraid of us, you have to twist stories, malign us with any single negative event where we might be present, and paint us as racist. You have no real knowledge of who we are or what were are about. We will crush you at the ballot box.”
C20H26N2O, I consider myself to be a liberal. And I would also consider myself to be an intelligent guy, “focused”, hardly “ignorant”, perfectly capable of “complex analysis”, and far from being a “dumm[y]“.
How do you know that “[I] have no real knowledge of who [you] are or what [you] are about”? Additionally, having never met me, how is it that you can claim to know SO much about me and what I am about?
For the record, I am here because the Haley matter is such great political theater. I don’t really care, based upon her political views, leanings or party, if Nikki Haley takes office. I do however care if an unrepentant liar, someone willing to lie to the electorate, does. Will Folks also cares about that, and he has given Haley, a candidate whom he wants to see elected, a candidate who has taken what he thinks is the untenable and unethical step of lying to the electorate about a personal misstep for which that electorate would probably forgive her if she simply and honestly admitted it, the opportunity to come clean.
You should actually be thanking Will Folks for not releasing the proof that he has sooner rather than later inasmuch as the longer that he holds off doing so, the longer that Nikki Haley has to do the right thing, be potentially forgiven by the electorate and take office, if she wins the election, with a skeleton-free closet.
In any event, Folks’ endorsement of Haley is not inconsistent with an expectation on his part that she should speak honestly about certain uncomfortable and embarrassing private matters, matters about which she has chosen, in his view, to publicly dissemble. Having and expressing such an expectation doesn’t make Folks a liberal, nor do his allegations of her marital infidelity and dishonesty, no matter how much they make “super-conservatives” like you fearful that they could jeopardize Haley’s chances at the ballot box.
That said, C20H26N2O, let’s take a wait and see on just how powerful your movement is, huh? Haley may win, but that wouldn’t necessarily mean anything for the rest of the country. Let’s see how things play out in places like Nevada, Kentucky and Florida before you start making predictions about the future of your movement, and its ability to “crush” the [liberals dummies] at the ballot box”.
Having read your diatribe above, I would counsel you to calm down. Relax a little bit, and try to think more calmly and rationally. And learn to express yourself in a clearer and less perjorative way. In all honesty, I couldn’t tell if you were lumping Folks in with the “liberal dummies” in “twisting stories about, and “malign[ing]“, the “super-conservative movement”.
Parenthetically, I gave you the benefit of the doubt, and assumed that your comments in this regard were directed at liberals, in general, and not necessarily at Will Folks, but it wasn’t entirely clear to me to whom you were addressing your comments because you started out talking to Folks, then mentioned “liberal dummies” just before going off on your rant about the apparent failings of whomever you were directing your comments to.
I wish you the best of luck with your overall political expectations, C20H26N2O, not to mention with your sense of the ascendency of the “super-conservative movement”. I hate to say it [not really (*laughing*)- I'm a liberal, after all, right?], but I think that you’re potentially setting yourself up for a pretty big and embarrassing fall with all of that “crush you at the ballot box” machismo you’re displaying. You might want to give some thought to climbing down off of that high horse you’re on before November rolls around, preferably sooner, if you plan to continue posting comments here.
In any event, good luck with everything. I think that you’re going to need it.

Wow, just wow! Top tier forensic linguists coming here and analyzing the posts in this thread from the 6:46 pm posting to the 7:12 posting could well come to the conclusion that “Florida Watching’s” personality has fragmented and she sequentially posting variously under the user names Florida Watching, PS, Nurse Hatchet & Bodog.

Probably it’s a minimal risk since the different identities you are assuming are so very similar – and easily recognizable.

If, Gresham Barrent wins, I’ll vote for him. Yes, Vincent Sheheeh is handsome, smart and nice, but he is a tax and spend, big gov’t dem.

F.Watching-I believe Nikki’s 40,000 more votes in the Primary than all 3 Demo. candidates added together shows who the strongest candidate for Governor is. Heck, Nikki could have given the Demo.candidates 39,500 votes and they couldn’t have beat her in the Primary. Who is the weakest candidate? Why of course- the Obama-Sheheen ticket.
By Florida Watching June 20, 2010 at 10:10 pm
Zuma Bound – Great stuff. Well written. I wish I could write as well as you, or be as funny as Balsak. But alas, I can’t. Haley’s supporters cannot defend her legislative record, work ethic, or morals. They fail to concede that Will could possibly be telling the truth, and Nikki could be lying. So all I can do for shock value is really get trashy & sleazy for the fun and chuckles of it all. After all….imagine (my dream of dreams)Naughty Nikki in spikes and fishnets at Jakie’s downtown strip joint. Indian dancers are known to be flexible. Now imagine Palin in black leather hugging on Nikki with that big toothy grin and a hand on one cheek, while Mitt …. who has funneled no less than SIX PAC maximum donations to Nikki’s moneymaker, standing on the other side…dressed in a leotard, with a hand pasted on Nikki’s other cheek. There is no room for Jenny….. completely bare-ass, so she’s lying on a bear skin in front of the trio. Freeze…..snap goes a camera, the picture goes viral, with 5 million viewers in the first hour. Now how embarraassing would that be??? All four of them put themselves on this stage AFTER Will first disclosed the little Willie-Nikki romps. As Joe Biden might say …. unfucking believeable. But wait….let us not forget the pinheads on this thread…..snapper, james, gary, and C3PO who have their heads stuck so far in Nikki’s can-can that they all are crying for some of Balsak’s babywipes. Well, as soon as Sic Willie’s bombshell explodes…. that dream becomes reality. Again, how embarrassing would that be for all of them? Personally, I can’t wait!!! Again….its not the nookie…I love the nookie…it is that defiant in-your-face denial and complete hypocrisy for Haley. And for the others……..hahahahahahaha. Mitt will never get that 42K out of Nikki’s nickers.

Fiscal Conservative said, “To Florida Watching: Stay in Florida! You are a foul-mouthed liberal. True Southerners don’t use such vulger [sic]language.”
While I’m with you regarding the use of vulgar language, I think that you’re being more than a little myopic when it comes to pointing fingers at the culpable parties. It has been my sad experience to have to defend people like Will Folks and Larry Marchant on this blog and others from an endless stream of “f*gg*t” references, insults and innuendoes from Republican, conservative and Tea Party members, all hailing from the South, just because Folks and Marchant had the temerity to gore one of their sacred cows.
Most recent case in point – On June 18th at 5:00 pm, Be A Man said [to Will Folks], “Give it up butt fucker!”
Take a good look around this blog. There are any number of “mouthbreathing”, South Carolinean, cracker homophobes who post on this blog who have tried to diminish the weight of what Folks and Marchant have had to say by calling them “f*gg*ts” or a variant thereof like “b*tt f*ck*r”. By your standards, they are not “true Southerners”, either, are they? Why not take a minute, and lecture all of them, as well, in addition to all of the “foul-mouthed liberals” you have taken to task, about what it means to be a “true Southerner”.

Snapper – You with all that medical know-how, have you checked on Nikki’s 100K part time job at the hospital while warming the seat at her part time job at the State House??? She had to be warming the seat, records show she did absolutely nothing else in six years….except toot the flute of a couple “Southern Gentlemen.”
One debate tactic is to deflect a strong arguement with some off the wall character assassination. Dude, I’m a dog. Why worry about me while Nikki is running for Gov.???
By C20H26N20 June 20, 2010 at 11:14 pm
Zuma, it’s very easy to know you. You’ve writen tons of essay material here. In your “writs of wisdom” you have described yourself in great detail. It reads something like this. Never address an issue head on. Find something else outside the real issue and hammer that into the ground. It’s called the media frenzy approach.
From my very first post here, I have asked for somemone to explain what exactly transpired in the days before WF disclosed his alleged (and somewhat substantiated) relationship with NH. Winning or losing my support hinged on whether or not a deal was promised – broken – and then resolved. Let me clear this up for you. If WF was promised a job, and that promise was broken, and WF retaliated, and then NH resolved it, then I want nothing to do with either of them again. That’s why I didn’t feed on the surface. I called everyone I knew that might have some idea of what really happened. No one had a friggin clue. A few suggested that I quit coming here. “You hop on a blog – you get what you get”.
There have been some good posts (all from conservatives) that theorized some possibilites. I will not lump you in with all the hard-left posts here(without a review). You show signs of thought processes, although slightly incensed with some hatred – a chip on your shoulder. I have seen your posts on other blogs over the year (ZealFT, WP, a few others I can’t remember). You tend to focus on how talented or not talented a person might be with language skills and ignore substance. You do this here and on the other blogs. So, I tend to think of you as an “E-lite” – a term I reserved for the affluent kids (east-side) who always thought they were better than me and my friends who were either from the mill-hill or brown-ville. (early 60s). Well, some of us from the hill and the ‘ville did pretty well through tons of work-hours and stringent saving.
I have no hatred of anyone – socialist or capitalist. Both have merit and weakness. I will admit that I have a distrust of politicians. I saw deals offered in my owwn parent’s house as a child(in a previous post). The one thing that really drives me nuts is when a person claims a philosophy (R or D) and delivers something quite different. Those are the lies that make a difference to me.
The majority of humans are unfaithful. 95 percent of adulterers lie about it if confronted. I am the only person that I know that has been married for 20 years or longer(much longer), and has never cheated. I guess I just couldn’t fit it into my busy schedule. There is love and there is sex. I cleanly separate the two. I have loved other women, and I have desired other women. I loved them for things other than physical attributes, although some had it all. Some of them loved me(not many). Only one of them was ever a problem. We have not spoken since a confrontation 20 years ago. I should call her and tell her how much she meant to me, before it’s too late.

Hell, guys were giving him high fives while gals were envious of the lowly intern. He shoulda said………”hell yeah she bl_w my m__t, and she was the best.

“C20 – Palin and Romney are the campaign. People are voting for them through Ms. Haley. Who are you?
We had a campaign before them, and we will have one after them. They only got on board after they saw we had legs.
It’s about full disclosure here in this state. Many on the state payroll don’t want us minding their business. They give me senseless answers like “you’re reading way too much into this” intead of giving me a direct answer. I would like to see Alfred Robinson return. We didn’t always agree, but he answered my questions.
I would make it illegal for anyone on the state paroll to vote. Why should anyone vote for their own employer?

C20, your analysis is spot-on. The guy who posts under multiple names is, I suspect, a professor. Whether or not he’s at the Charleston School of Law I don’t know (their website shows they don’t have that many professors, so it shouldn’t be too hard to tell from the professor bios who’s been involved in politics or worked for a SC judge). But I would wager a car waxing that he’s involved in a debate team or a moot court team, based on his affinity for nitpicking. There’s a lot of anger and bitterness evident in what he writes. I think he needs to step away from the keyboard and get laid. I have to go now because I have to trim some rose bushes and wash a Lexus.

Red Dog is always trolling here for hits. So, I went to his site and posted some comments. Because they gored one of his sacred cows, Nikki Haley, he got upset and responded to my comments with all of the maturity and intellectual prowess of a fifth grade schoolboy trying to insult his friends on the schoolyard or a drunken frat boy at the end of a kegger.
So, for the record, be forewarned, his website, unlike this one, is nothing more than an echo chamber for views with which Red Dog agrees. He may want people to visit his site, but he’ll call you a troll if he doesn’t like what you have to say. Ironic, given why he’s here in the first place.
Red Dog, a troll AND a tool. Be forewarned. If you’re smart, just avoid his website, no matter how much he comes here to advertise it. Given the limited amount of traffic that it apparently gets, that may be unnecessary advice, as it appears that people are already avoiding it, but I figured that I’d offer it anyway, just in case.
In his last responsive post, Red Dog gave me what he called a *troll hug*. I laughed, gave him a *tool hug* back and said adios, homeboy. He’s kind of pathetic really. Bouncing around all alone over there at his website, desperately wishing with all of his precious little heart that he had just a fraction of the traffic that Will Folks gets here. Awwww, Red Dog, there, there. Don’t cry. Come here. Maybe you just need another *tool hug*.

C20H26N20 – You clearly don’t have the slightest clue about me or what I have posted over time. That you have elected to mischaracterize me and what I have purportedly posted elsewhere does say something about you. For the record, I don’t recognize the other sites to which you apparently refer on which you claim that I have posted comments. Maybe you’re just confusing with someone else by whom you felt slighted in some way.
I will say this, I do care about clarity of written expression. I care about spelling words correctly and using proper grammar. If that intimidates you or makes you feel bad or makes me an “elitist” (the insult of choice for people who lapse into the perjorative whenever threatened by a contrary point of view from someone who spells well and understands how to use proper grammar), so be it.
Look, I’m sorry that people have apparently looked down on you your whole life, your days back in school, in particular. The irony is that, in your own little way, you are every bit as judgmental, if not more so, as all of the people that have put you down over the course of your life. “Liberal dummies”, that’s pretty judgmental, isn’t it?
You don’t know me, and, at bottom, you don’t really care about knowing me or any other “liberal dumm[y]“. I mean, that’s fine, and everything, but, given the preconceived narrative from which you plainly operate, and given your apparent inclination to perjoratively label those with whom you disagree, don’t come here and try to lecture me about how I express myself or about the evils of being judgmental.
I’m comfortable letting my posts, here and elsewhere, speak for themselves. People with open minds understand who I am. You clearly do not. But I’m comfortable with that, too.

You write so well. It’s impressive. Your punctuation: to die for. And your command of syntax makes me wild with desire. You’re so smart. I bet you’re very handsome, too. And masculine. Oh, yes, Zuma, you have a true gift. Zuma, if you’re ever in Boykin, please come visit me. I want you to express your zest for clarity in written expression to me in other ways, like those of the flesh. When you wrote, “[A]t bottom . . . ,” were you trying to tease me? If that was your intention, you have succeeded.
If I may make one suggestion, please let it be that you might work on writing less like an attorney. Some of your fine writing is peppered with lawyerly construction, which tends to distract from your otherwise flawless message. Aside from that, you leave me, well, breathless.
Yes, I, of open mind, understand who you are. You are a ray of literary sunshine, punching through the clouds of campaign vitriol. Please do not stop speaking truth to power, Zuma.

Instead of waxing so “breathless” about peripheral concerns, why not talk about the substantive points that I make in my posts? That is something, by the way, that I wish that C20H26N20 had done, instead of just calling me an elitist.
Just to clarify something for you, I care about spelling, proper grammar and articulate argumentation, but it isn’t something that I am used to having to talk about, much less defend. It is a given where I come from, and in the circles in which I move and have moved my entire life. It is unfortunately something that comes up in places like this where people with lingering resentments of the “smart kids” they remember from their school days call people who speak with any level of erudition, and who honor the basic and fundamental principles that are important, if not essential, to mature, intelligent, written expression and communication in general, principles like the need to spell correctly, to use proper grammar and to offer thoughtful, logical argument, “elitists”. C20H26N20 is a case in point.
I wasn’t trying to pat myself on the back, Breathless, just responding to somebody with an inferiority complex that has lingered since he felt looked down upon by the smart and/or affluent kids back when he was growing up.
C20H26N20, Breathless, are we here to talk about Nikki Haley or not? Let’s get back to the issues, huh?
As I’ve send in various posts, the “body language” of what Will Folks has done, to date, has been instructive for me. It is the “body language” of a confident man, of a cardplayer who is holding all of the important cards. C20H26N20 may see a nefarious, “back door” deal as the explanation for what Folks has done, and is doing. I don’t, and I’ve explained why I don’t in my posts. I suggest that he read them, and substantively respond to them, and leave discussions of elitism out it, as well as his perjorative, judgmental dismissals of what I have had to say as the musings of an uninformed “liberal dumm[y]“.

Look, Snap, I’m sorry if I hurt your feelings in the past, but you need to just let it go. AND why not just let the people to whom my post was directed respond to it, instead of using it as way to work out your own complex array of troubling personal issues.
By C20H26N2O June 21, 2010 at 10:18 pm
Zuma, I realize that it is difficult for you to admit what really happened here. You seem really disturbed by the fact that I was correct from my very first post. (I left my glasses in the car so don;t go into shock if I misspell a few).
You have never addressed the underlying motives of this case. I don’t believe you are a simpleton. I do believe you ignore what pleases you to ignore. You appear to see only the surface, but I know better. You are blinded by your own ambition and rage. You do it so well.
I did enjoy your insults about my chhildhood. The story was about rising from rags to success, but you used it to project your own frustration, both as a child, and possibly as an adult.
The other places you have posted are still in open archive, and I should place links to them here, and let others decide. It is very clear you are the same poster. I get such satisfaction reading your misery. Perhaps you were one of the e-lites in my past – a spoiled-rotten little kid whose parents are no longer footing the bill. it’s been years since you wrecked that new Corvette they gave you. Now you have to make it on your own merit, and find life tough adn unfair. You have watched people like me come from nothing, and slowly make their way to the top. ENOUGH you say. You’ll teach those successful people to bow down to you before it’s over. You make them flip the burgers that dance in your head when you sleep. You’ll get even – if it takes forever.
By Zuma Bound June 21, 2010 at 10:55 pm
All right, C20H26N20, what do you say we get back to the issues?
You wrote up above, in pertinent part, the following – “From my very first post here, I have asked for somemone to explain what exactly transpired in the days before WF disclosed his alleged (and somewhat substantiated) relationship with NH. Winning or losing my support hinged on whether or not a deal was promised – broken – and then resolved. Let me clear this up for you. If WF was promised a job, and that promise was broken, and WF retaliated, and then NH resolved it, then I want nothing to do with either of them again. That’s why I didn’t feed on the surface. I called everyone I knew that might have some idea of what really happened. No one had a friggin clue.”
It is my view that Will Folks has explained “what exactly transpired in the days before [he] disclosed his. . .relationship with [Nikki Haley].”
And it had absolutely nothing to do with broken promises about jobs.
While I would consider myself to be a liberal now, I am a registered Independent who voted for George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004, and, for the record, I am here not to mindlessly attack Nikki Haley because she is a conservative/Republican/Tea Party favorite. In plain and simple terms, I can’t stand politicians who lie, whatever their stripe, “slick Willie” included.
I’ve carefully listened to everything that Will Folks has had to say, and, based upon what he has said and how he has said it, in the straighforward and unhurried manner of someone who knows that the truth and events will eventually bear him out. It’s as simple as that. My gut tells me that he is telling the truth, and that any delay in releasing his “proof” has been about giving Nikki Haley more time to do the right thing and come clean about something that most people would forgive her for, if given the chance. That said, I would forgive her for it, and move on, if I was a South Carolinean.
If Will Folks is telling the truth, as I believe he is, then Nikki Haley is not. If she isn’t, then she has been lying to the South Carolinean electorate. I’m not ready to call her a liar, and I won’t call her a liar until she herself admits to it. At this point, I believe that she is a liar based upon what Will Folks has had to say, but I’m going to hold my fire about actually calling her one until Folks releases the rest of what he has in the way of proof and/or until Nikki Haley comes clean. Based upon what Folks has said, that day will come soon enough, and it will come, not because others have demanded it, but because he has determined that it is the appropriate time.
Folks statements on the matter, as opposed to sounding disingenuous, have for me had the feel of the steady, relentless drumbeat of a military procession getting ever and ever louder as the procession approaches, signaling its inevitable and unavoidable arrival.
The day of reckoning will be here soon enough. In the meantime, maybe we should all just hold our fire, the fire that has been trained on one another, and on Folks. Shooting our mouths off here may make us all feel temporarily better, but it isn’t going to make Folks adjust his timetable or his reasons for delaying his release of materials demonstrating the truth of his statements.
Beyond that, the fact of the matter is that the timing of his release of such materials will be incidental with respect to Nikki Haley’s political future. If he is telling the truth, Nikki Haley will be toast, regardless of when it happens.
C20H26N20, none of us have concrete evidence, one way or the other, of what happened or didn’t happen between Nikki Haley and Will Folks. I would encourage you to adopt a wait and see attitude, and to maybe take a break from talking “liberal dummies” for a minute. at least while the Haley/Folks matter resolves itself. For the record, most liberals are pretty nice people, just as I imagine you probably are.
I, for one, intend to sit back for awhile and let things play out. That said, I have a feeling that the rest of you won’t end up doing the same thing.
See ya.
By C20H26N2O June 21, 2010 at 11:17 pm
Zuma, below is a total mess. Clean up your work. Not at all like you. Poor continuance of thought from clause to clause, use of adverb perjoratively in SC blog, a total miscontruct. Which jr high school are you currently waddling the halls of?
“You don’t know me, and, at bottom, you don’t really care about knowing me or any other “liberal dumm[y]“. I mean, that’s fine, and everything, but, given the preconceived narrative from which you plainly operate, and given your apparent inclination to perjoratively label those with whom you disagree, don’t come here and try to lecture me about how I express myself or about the evils of being judgmental.” —end Zuma

Some final thoughts about my “conversation” with C20H26N2O, and his approach to political discourse. While I am not optimistic that he will, I genuinely hope that he will thoughtfully consider them.
C20H26N2O posted the following on June 20th, 2010 at 1:02 am:
“Last chance Will, either drop the bomb or I….. oh yea, I almost forgot; you endorsed her. I told all you liberal dummies that something much more complex had happened here. But you’re so ignorant and incapable of complex analysis, you completely missed it. Try to stay focused next time. Such is your analysis of the new super-conservative movement. You’re so afraid of us, you have to twist stories, malign us with any single negative event where we might be present, and paint us as racist. You have no real knowledge of who we are or what were are about. We will crush you at the ballot box.”
I’m going to talk about this passage a little bit later. Suffice it to say that it is important to providing context for my remarks here about C20H26N2O, as well as for those which have been posted previously.
C20H26N2O posted the following on June 21st, 2010 at 10:18 pm

The following is a line by line deconstruction of C20H26N2O’s post from June 21, 2010 at 10:18 pm:
C20H26N2O – “Zuma, I realize that it is difficult for you to admit what really happened here.”
My response – What is easy to “admit” is that I have no idea what you are talking about here.
C20H26N2O – “You seem really disturbed by the fact that I was correct from my very first post.”
My response – Huh? I don’t think that you’ve been correct about anything. How could I be disturbed about something that hasn’t occurred? I disagreed with your ad hominem characterization of liberals as “dummies”, and I suggested that you should just wait and see if the “super-conservative movement” would “[actually] crush them at the ballot box”, and then had to defend myself against your ad hominem attacks. I find you disturbing on a personal level, I find your political views disturbing, but I’m definitely not disturbed about your having EVER been correct about anything. Are we clear?
C20H26N2O – “You have never addressed the underlying motives of this case. I don’t believe you are a simpleton. I do believe you ignore what pleases you to ignore.”
My response – Have you truly read ANY of my posts? For example, look at the post just above June 21, 2010 at 10:55 pm.
C20H26N2O – “You appear to see only the surface, but I know better. You are blinded by your own ambition and rage. You do it so well.”
My response – Blinded about ambition and rage? Huh?! Ambition about what?! Rage about what?! I’ve responded substantively, trying in the process to get you off of your tendency to consider all liberals “dummies”, and you let your responsive posts serve as ad hominem attack pieces, like this one. That they are so wildly off the mark serves as a source of humor, and not much else. But, that said, please tell me. Ambition about what? Rage about what? I do WHAT so well?
C20H26N2O – “I did enjoy your insults about my childhood. The story was about rising from rags to success, but you used it to project your own frustration, both as a child, and possibly as an adult.”
My response – Let’s look at the record. Here’s what you said in your post from June 20, 2010 at 11:14 pm, “You tend to focus on how talented or not talented a person might be with language skills and ignore substance. You do this here and on the other blogs.”
Absolutely not true, as my posts reflect, and you know it.
You continued in your post from June 20, 2010 at 11:14 pm by saying, “So, I tend to think of you as an “E-lite” – a term I reserved for the affluent kids (east-side) who always thought they were better than me and my friends who were either from the mill-hill or brown-ville. (early 60s). Well, some of us from the hill and the ‘ville did pretty well through tons of work-hours and stringent saving.”
Here’s what I said in response, the context being just how judgmental you have demonstrated yourself to be, “Look, I’m sorry that people have apparently looked down on you your whole life, your days back in school, in particular. The irony is that, in your own little way, you are every bit as judgmental, if not more so, as all of the people that have put you down over the course of your life. “Liberal dummies”, that’s pretty judgmental, isn’t it?
How was that an insult? How did it misconstrue what you yourself had said about your life, in the first place? In any event, my first impulse isn’t to say something like that. I got into that particular subject precisely because your being so judgmental about liberals was so tellingly and ironically reminiscent of how judgmental the people who looked down on you had been towards you. Talk about projection, not to mention hypocrisy.
C20H26N2O – “The other places you have posted are still in open archive, and I should place links to them here, and let others decide. It is very clear you are the same poster.”
My response – You should do that. The problem that you’ll have is that when people read them, they will understand just how badly you have mischaracterized me and what I have actually had to say. That said, please just make sure that I have actually written what you are trying to attribute to me. I post only under the screen name of Zuma Bound, and under no other, your claims to the contrary notwithstanding.
C20H26N2O – “I get such satisfaction reading your misery.”
My misery? What are you talking about? Where do you get that from? The disturbing nature of that statement notwithstanding, I’m quite content, thank you.
C20H26N2O – “Perhaps you were one of the E-lites in my past – a spoiled-rotten little kid whose parents are no longer footing the bill. it’s been years since you wrecked that new Corvette they gave you. Now you have to make it on your own merit, and find life tough adn unfair. You have watched people like me come from nothing, and slowly make their way to the top. ENOUGH you say. You’ll teach those successful people to bow down to you before it’s over. You make them flip the burgers that dance in your head when you sleep. You’ll get even – if it takes forever.”
My response – Wow, ONE of us has a chip on his shoulder, and a VERY big and lingering inferiority complex. You see, this is what I am talking about when I say that you are projecting here, working out old issues in this context. As any good shrink would tell you, I am not one of the “E-lites” from your past that tormented you and looked down on you, and if you would just let go of all of that, maybe we could have a more normal dialogue, one unencumbered by your demons from the past.
That passage is a really good example of just how judgmental you are, not to mention why you are, and how very myopic you are regarding same. It is a good example of how you tend to project your emotional/psychological issues on people, like me, whom you are trying to demonize and/or demagogue them. It also illustrates just how much demonizing people with whom you disagree politically is part of the “DNA” of how you analyze, and debate/argue with people, about an issue, along with attempting to suggest that your opponents fail to substantively address the issue (a truly common, and generally misplaced refrain with you).
You REALLY don’t know me. Do you realize just how far over the edge you have gone with your conclusions about me, and all just because I had the temerity to say that Will Folks is telling the truth, that the “super-conservative movement” isn’t all powerful and to suggest, based upon what you have admitted to about your past life, that you have some residual issues from your childhood?
I will take you at your word about your eventual successes in life, and I applaud you for them. See, I can say that to you regardless of how much I think your political views are misguided crap. You, on the other hand, are so invested in the idea of tearing me down that you conjure up crazy fantasies about me and my life. That is as telling, as it is pathetic.
My father, the son of a Finnish immigrant who did not speak English, grew up during the Depression. An engineer, an inventor, a visionary, a brilliant man, he was a self-made man who expected me to follow his example, no matter how much money the family had.
My parents did buy me a car as a high school graduation present, a $1,500 Volkswagon Beetle, but that’s as far as the “largesse” went. I went to college on my own dime, paying for it by working at a several different “blue collar” jobs, a warehouse and a McDonalds, among them. Law school was paid for by a full academic scholarship that I earned by keeping my nose to the grindstone when I wasn’t working.
Anyway, I’ve worked just as hard as you’ve claimed to have worked. And I imagine that I am just as successful as you are, if not more so. The difference between us, I think, is that you apparently still suffer from the slights that you felt earlier on in life by people that you thought considered themselves better than you.
I live a good life here in California, a house at the beach in Manhattan Beach, a prosperous law practice in Los Angeles, a loving family. I’m perfectly happy with my life, as well as with my politic views. For the record, having been a lifelong Republican, thanks to my Dad’s influence, and having voted for George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004, I thereafter “woke up”, largely due to what the Bush administration did to the country, most notably turning a signigicant budget surplus into a huge deficit, and suckling at the teat of Wall Street, as well as that of Big Oil and the rest of the carbon-based energy industry.
In any event, I am not a “liberal dumm[y]“, anymore than you are a Neanderthal “super-conservative”. We are two people with opposing political philosophies who are perfectly capable of engaging in civil discourse, something that I tried to get back to in my post of June 21, 2010 at 10:55 pm.
Do me a favor. If you want to continue this “discussion”, how about just looking at the substance of what I had to say in that post and respond to the substance of what I said threin, without recourse to any further ad hominem attacks. Otherwise, good luck to you.

Zuma, I also do not think the Bush administration did this nation any good. I did not vote GW Bush either time. I also do not have a great appreciation for Sarah Palin. Primarily I think the reason is that her voice simply drives me nuts. It is unfair to her that I feel that way, but I cannot help myself.
I think that I read some of your post here and elsewhere (posted under the name Zuma Bound) where you simply put people down and insult them. Maybe I am misreading your tone. I would like to hear more about what you see as the outcome of Washington’s poor behavior over the part 50 years. Do you see socalism as the final outcome? (I do). We have allowed the leadership to take us down a path from which there is no return. I would personally like to “opt out” of this country. I can actually practice medicine in some of the 3rd world countries(and I have). I never even started residency here, and in fact left the field a year before that could have happened. If I could get half of the SS I have paid, I would agree to leave, and not return. So, you probably misunderstand me as much as I misunderstand you. The only thing I ask from you is to help me understand why WF disclosed the affair. That’s a real tough one for me. It never made any logical sense to me. Then he comes ful circle to endorse her. If you (seriously) could help step me through it, I will certainly listen to any theory.
As a general rule, I do not like politicians – period. Perhaps you made the inference from some of my previous posts. I think there are far too many lawyers in the House and Senate. No reflection on you – as you are not a politician as far as I know. Do you believe lawyers are good choices for world leaders?
I owuld like to know more about you. How you chose the direction you took in life. What attracted you to you current profession?
