Hardline conservatives should be celebrating the Republican response speech to the State of the Union, offered by Gov. Nikki Haley of South Carolina. The speech was a testament to how far the party is willing to go to cater to the putrid racism of the conservative base, as Haley, using her own background as the child of Indian immigrants, demonized immigrants and refugees fleeing war, and, in a particularly odious display, used the murder of nine people at the hands of a racist to scold Black Lives Matter protesters for speaking out.
But the right just ain't having it, it turns out. That's because, even though Haley was willing to sign off on most of the agenda items of the bigoted base, she insisted on doing so using the coded language that conservatives have used for decades now to convey racist ideas while pretending to be not racist. These days, the base wants to communicate racist ideas with bullhorns, not nudges. And Haley's old school style, of declaring that conservatives aren't racist while winking at the audience, just isn't going to fly.
The backlash against Haley started immediately on Twitter, with prominent figures on the right such as Laura Ingraham, Michelle Malkin, John Nolte, and, of course, Ann Coulter, flipping out and attacking Haley.
This burst of outrage at Haley for using coded instead of blunt attacks on immigrants and anti-racist activists got juice, of course, from Donald Trump, who responded by saying she's "very weak on illegal immigration."
The majority of GOP candidates are for some sort of amnesty or immigration expansion, and this one thinks the GOP is pandering to its base.
Hold on, let me get some duct tape. My sides are splitting.
Didn’t the WH praise her?
That’s the kiss of death.
She has nothing in common with Trump. She is an establishment — bushie -— all the way. She is exposed and finished.
Okay sister here’s the truth with no code words: You and your GOPE and Uniparty pals are the enemy and we are going to sweep you out in November.

I wonder if Czechoslovakian liberals in 1938 call it racist to criticize the Germans when the Germans occupied the Czechoslovakian Sudetenland
I think it has already started. This explains why Trump is so far ahead in the polls. People are sick of the lies and false accusations from the Left.
Satan is the accuser. He is the father of the Left.
That’s because they are openly cheerleaders for the NAMBLA crowd.
She sold it to Jeb for $5.12 and a soiled Beanie Baby
Yes, I’ve heard it so often from the media that now I lie awake at night wondering if I really AM a racist./s
Uh, did Salon watch the same response that I did? Oh, maybe they listened to the Spanish version.
I am the same as well, you can be the same skin color as me but if we do not share the same values, beliefs, then we have really nothing in common then I will probably not associate with you, as someone said your, skin folk is not always your kin folk.
Oh, Salon
Ohhhhhh, I think you nailed it
You can try, but this post will never be as good as the one that got pulled :(
It’s obvious that Nikki NUKED herself.
What’s wrong with standing up for White people and advocating their interests, the way all other racial/ethnic groups do for themselves? Whites founded this country, outcompeted all other groups in extending its boundary to the Pacific Ocean, and made it into the envy of the world. We should stop apologizing and feeling guilty for our achievements, and also stop allowing ourselves to be overrun by intruders from hostile, alien cultures intent on taking what we have and displacing or destroying us. More than the camel’s nose is now under the tent, and we will soon be out in the cold, as was discussed here several years ago on the following page:

(”The Camel’s Nose in the Tent”)
Donald Trump recently read song lyrics (”The Snake”) with a similar allegorical meaning, as discussed here on the following page:

(”The Snake”)
100% correct
I’d like to ask these Salon idiots what race “illegal immigrant” is.
