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."

Really, Nikki?
Even those who religion commands them to kill you and your children?
Wotta maroon.
Thank you FRiend, I’ve learned from the best, my fellow FReepers!
Like Marco Rubio, Nikki used the Tea Party to get elected and soon went over to the GOPe dark side.
Trump, when talking about Fox's focus group immediately said....”That Slob”.
SIREN CALL...Angriest voices. Gov Nikki has been reading too many bad paperback romance novels.
Just another cheap labor importer
Yet those “angry voices” are going to have to be listened to .
Trump needs to ask why we did not let Iranians in by the boatload back in 1980. I mean they were peaceful, holding hostages and flaming the fires.
Slut
Proving what everyone suspected...
She’s just a thinner, darker-skinned Chris Christie.
Expose.
And that’s all it did. She was a RINO from the beginning, but hid it well.
They all expose themselves eventually.
Our job is to find out before they sneak their way into office and prevent them ever getting into that office by voting true conservatives in.
That’s what they call Long Island Lockjaw.
It is supposed to make you look of High Breeding.
Haley is trying to combine the polite, acceptable, stately version of the Southern accent (as opposed to the redneck accent that Hitlery! impersonates when addressing southerners) with the Long Island Lockjaw of the Northeast.
It’s supposed to make her sound intelligent and of a higher class than the rest of us, you know, so we all bow down to her and give her lots of power and prestige.
Joey’s in love. The failed politician relegated to morning talk meets a powerful woman. “Hey Mika, you’d look great in a dark wig, you know, shoulder length.”
kind of hard to tell, but if Haley has a widow’s peak, and gets to be VP, she’d be sitting next to Paul Ryan this time next year, and the SOTU dais would look like a Munster’s episode.
The GOPe puppet jumping Trump! What a disappointment.
GOP out of touch.
I wish she would stop the gop-e hate speech. She is a tool.
I would visit SC but they won’t recognize my Colorado CHP so obviously they are not concerned with the safety of visitors.
She made the big leagues!! She won the John McCain in a dress award! Congrats, Nikki! Now you can run as !Yeb’s! running mate.
Haley’s orders from the GOPestablishment:
Stop Trump [and/or Cruz] by the SC primary or else.
==
She sounds about as tone deaf as the rest of the GOP establishment regarding illegals and the ‘angriest voices.’
But, then, she is another faux conservative who ran as a conservative and turned ‘moderate’ as soon as she got elected. And she was one of the many GOP governors who allowed the PC crowd to coerce her into doing something they have been trying to get done for decades — start removing everything Confederate from history.
She looked and sounded wooden.
