Barnicle Gossips: On Foreign Policy, 'Nikki Haley Makes Sarah Palin Sound Like Henry Kissinger'
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/19/2017 8:34:19 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Mike Barnicle might not bring much to the table, but he is still capable of passing along nasty remarks from unnamed sources. On today's Morning Joe, discussing Nikki Haley's preparations for her confirmation hearing as UN Ambassador, Barnicle said, "I was told by somebody within the world of diplomacy and international relations that Nikki Haley makes Sarah Palin sound like Henry Kissinger."

Joe Scarborough seemed to have intentionally teed Barnicle up to take his anonymous shot at Haley, asking him "what are you hearing about her?" After Barnicle's gossip, Scarborough weighed in, saying that he'd been hearing for weeks "real concerns with the people that had been prepping her over her complete ignorance of foreign policy."

She is a lightweight.
The only good thing about the appointment is getting her out of South Carolina.

The reasons Trump sent Haley to the UN are: 1. get her out of SC to reward an ally to the governership. 2. UN is nothing burger to Trump, even an idiot can do the job.

Her attendance will be little more than a public slaughter.

She has never studied this subject, and she’s dumb as a post...unlike Palin.

“She is my Governor and I do not understand Trumps choice.”

The ONLY thing that makes sense is that he plans to withdraw from the UN Treaty.

She’s about to make herself a laughing stock.

If her job is going to be to sit back while Trump pulls us out of the UN and kicks them out of the country, then there wouldn’t be much point in wasting a foreign policy genius on it.

He also comes from a carney-circus family.
Small hands.
Smells of cabbage.

She's not my Governor but I too believe that Trump was fooled on this selection. Time will tell. Hope I'm wrong.

Yes - it’s good to get her out of South Carolina and get a Republican in there as governor.

I’ve been really surprised at the number of foreigners and 1st generation foreigners who are seeking public office and who are already in public office. Even those non-natural born candidates.

Mike Barnicle the plagiarizer?

The guy who was run out of his job at the Boston Globe for plagiarizing content from a George Carlin book and claiming it as his own writting?

That Mike Barnicle?

Just do a search on “Mike Barnicle plagiarism”

No, she isn't a lightweight. She just isn't the person we thought she was when Sarah endorsed Haley the first time around (and got Nikki elected). More an across-the-aisle pol than the Conservative she pretended to be. Perfect for the UN but no further.

She is a lightweight, she has no clue about world affairs.
She’ll do OK as long as she follows orders.

I wish Trump would hire one of Barnum and Bailey’s Circus clowns to send to the UN.

Do you know Haley personally or merely by observation from Virginia?

It was the stable full of ineligibles that got the GOP to go along with the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

Cruz, Rubio, Haley, Jindal and George P. Bush all had at least one foreign national parent, making them not natural born citizens. In the case of Cruz, he also was foreign born, really stretching the meaning.
If one only needs to be an American on one’s mother’s side, then Winston Churchill and the Jordanian royal family are eligible.
