Ya may have heard last week that a very influential (and, I must say, hot lookin') conservative Republican patriot endorsed Nikki Haley in the Republican primary for South Carolina governor:
I’m very proud to add my voice to Jenny Sanford’s and others in endorsing Nikki Haley for governor of South Carolina. Nikki is a strong pro-life, pro-Second Amendment fiscal conservative who served with distinction as a state lawmaker, a reformer who fought her own party to protect the interests of the taxpayer, a proud daughter of immigrants who worked night and day to achieve the American dream, a wife of an officer in the Army National Guard, a board member at her family’s Methodist church, and – most proudly – the loving mother of two beautiful kids.
Did ya notice there in all those glowin' compliments that there is no mention of Nikki bein' a good wife? That wasn't exactly an accident. This morning, one of South Carolina's most patriotic bloggers admitted to havin' an affair with Nikki. Here is Will Folks from FITSNews.com:
Specifically, within the last forty-eight hours several pieces of information which purportedly document a prior physical relationship between myself and Rep. Haley have begun to be leaked slowly, piece by piece, to members of the mainstream media. I am told that at least one story based upon this information will be published this week. Watching all of this unfold, I have become convinced that the gradual release of this information is deliberately designed to advance this story in the press while simultaneously forcing either evasive answers or denials on my part or on Nikki’s part.
I refuse to play that game. I refuse to have someone hold the political equivalent of a switch-blade in front of my face and just sit there and watch as they cut me to pieces.
The truth in this case is what it is. Several years ago, prior to my marriage, I had an inappropriate physical relationship with Nikki.
Now, this so-called "conservative" must be a real scumbag. He violated Reagan's Eleventh Commandment, which said "don't go pokin' around in other Republicans and then go blabbin' about it in yer blog."
Nikki is courageously denyin' the whole thing:
Haley denies any infidelity. "I have been 100% faithful to my husband throughout our 13 years of marriage," she said in a statement, per NBC affiliate WIS-TV. "This claim against me is categorically and totally false." Haley added that Folks' allegations was "South Carolina politics at its worst" -- although Folks' blog reportedly has been very favorable toward Haley's candidacy.
I couldn't be more proud of Nikki. She got all the way through her statement without mentionin' the Civil Rights Act one time!
