Americans should resist "the siren call of the angriest voices" in how the nation treats immigrants, South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley said Tuesday as the GOP used its response to President Barack Obama's State of the Union address to try softening the tough stance embraced by some of its leading presidential candidates.
The U.S.-born daughter of Indian immigrants, Haley said the country is facing its most dangerous security threat since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. That was a reference to the Islamic State group, which has taken credit for attacks in Paris and elsewhere and may have inspired last month's mass shooting in San Bernardino, California.
"During anxious times, it can be tempting to follow the siren call of the angriest voices," Haley, mentioned by some as a potential vice presidential candidate this year, said in her party's formal response to Obama. "We must resist that temptation."(continued)

well now we know why gov Haley was selected...
She’s the daughter of immigrants: Nimrata Kaur Randhawa Haley. Of Sikh descent.
I missed her report...how did it go over with party...or...TRUMP?
How rude.
Guess what. Illegal immigrants are here illegally and should be deported.
Another pro-amnesty establishment hack. We are sooo surrounded by these evil scum. I pray everyday for Trump.
I’ll bet they were not illegal immigrants.
funh
No, they weren’t.
[Americans should resist “the siren call of the angriest voices” in how the nation treats immigrants]
Americans know the immigrant system is broken. Those immigrants who will not pledge allegiance to the U.S. Constitution are not for us.
That puts her at odds with the top Republican candidates and agreeing with all the Democrat candidates. Whose side is she on?
Truly, a shallow, pandering idiot of a governor. The world is blowing up, the nation is in dire straits, and all she can think of is her Punjab roots.
I like Indians. I like Sikhs. But it does kind of make her a little biased. Never knew that about her,
She is a damn fool - trying to ride two horses with one @$$. Either we defend this nation from an obvious Trojan Horse or else we suffer the same fate as Paris on a regular basis - or worse. What a freaking tool.
She says she goes to church and to gurdwara.
How dulled the people get. Is Haley even thinking independently or is everyone and his uncle leaning on what the next guy said in a cycle of recycled memes?
Trump isn’t talking — virtually no conservative is talking either — about some generalized concept of immigrant. THIS IS ABOUT CERTAIN KNOWN CLASSES OF IMMIGRANT. Can we please get the skipping needle moving forward on this record of sloppy think? Please?
What is gurdwara?
The Sikh house of worship.
A Sikh temple... that’s an odd syncretism
