Nikki Haley - the glitz and glamor queen of South Carolina - is at it again, folks. This time she's blocking people from her Facebook page who disagree with or challenge her. It wouldn't have taken as many posts for me, though.
Nikki Haley - the glitz and glamor queen of South Carolina - is at it again, folks. This time she's blocking people from her Facebook page who disagree with or challenge her. It wouldn't have taken as many posts for me, though.
But some of her former followers say she's not as apt to take what she dishes out. A number of people have recently taken to their own Twitter and Facebook accounts and blogs to complain about being banned from the governor's page for disagreeing with her, while her supporters are allowed to comment at will.No, it's not right. But how many people in this state are going to grow a set and stand behind their names against her, calling out each and every political miscue? Haley, however, can block people. It's her page.Logan Stewart said she "Liked" the governor's page to keep up with state politics after she moved out of state but was banned after about five posts, including one in which she challenged the governor's numbers on job creation. Stewart said ultimately the governor can do what she wants with her own Facebook page but an unwillingness to accept differing opinions sends the wrong message, "especially for an elected official who campaigned on transparency. I just don't think that's right."
But playing nice with the enemy and not holding their feet to fire, especially when they run this state, isn't going to accomplish the goal of ousting them from office.
And yes, they're the enemy. They win. They do not want us to. Simple as that.
