Morning Joe Hails Haley's Attack on 'Angriest Voices': 'Star/Great/Welcome to Big Stage'

Here at NewsBusters, one of our classification categories under Media Bias is "Sudden Respect." The notion is that all a Republican has to do to win praise from the MSM is to bash fellow Republicans or conservatives.
There was a perfect illustration of the phenomenon on today's Morning Joe. In her Republican response to the SOTU, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley counseled Republicans to reject "the siren call of the angriest voices" and urged "welcoming immigrants regardless of race or religion." The shots at Donald Trump and to some extent at Ted Cruz were unmistakeable. Morning Joe loved it. "Welcome to the big stage," enthused Mika Brzezinksi. Willie Geist declared Haley a "star." Gushed former CNN CEO Walter Isaacson: "great."

Frank Lutz’ focus group last night thought Haley did great... Because she sounded like Obama. Sheesh.

Haley is a careerist pig doing the bidding of her masters. Nothing more, nothing less.

Trump is more popular in her state than she is. She is out on a limb here and Trump may knock her off her perch.
Watch for Trump to attack her. She is for illegals and cheap money express, not popular in her state.

“Frank Lutz’ focus group last night thought Haley did great...”
There is one constant in life: Frank Lutz will find a focus group that doesn’t like Trump.

Somebody should send her a copy of any South Carolina primary poll.

Nikki went to the GOPe Dark Side. Too bad. It took a nutcase killer to expose her.

Angry voices....does she mean the ones that denounced a 150 year old flag for the present day actions of a psycho gunman?

Nikki Haley . . . urged "welcoming immigrants regardless of race or religion." We need to always distinguish between legal immigrants and criminals who enter our country illegally. We should not under any circumstances reward criminals for their crimes.

Haley is a tool.
When the Left and the media tell you who is great on your team, that is a sure sign they want you to lose with them.

The Uniparty, and its paid whore of the hour, value non-residents of the US over hard-working, tax-paying citizens.
