Haley is the daughter of Indian immigrants. She was raised as a Sikh but converted to Methodism and has said she attends services in both faiths, according to The State newspaper. In Haley's 2004 winning run against the longest-serving lawmaker in the S.C. House, anonymous fliers incorrectly claimed that she was a Hindu.SOUTH CAROLINA HAS THE HIGHEST UN-EMPLOYMENT RATE, THE LOWEST SECOND LOWEST EDUCATED WORKFORCE IN THE COUNTRY (MISS)AND I THINK ANYONE WHO CAN CHANGE THE GOOD OLD BOYS THAT HAVE PROSPERED FROM THESE FACTS IS A BLESSED THING.

And another thing, if anyone knows anything about Sikhs and Sikhism is that although they do in fact wear turbins, they too are being antogonized and being driven out of the Muslim world for not following Islam.
What a "knott-head".

The old (fifty years plus) polygraph is just that -- a measurer of several physical reactions. The assumption, never proven, is that a reaction to a question means the subject is lying. The only problem is, its level of accuracy is similar to a coin toss. Also, people can be trained to fool the polygraph. So the only real use of the device? To make the accused look guilty.

June 05 2010 at 1:09 PM Report abuse Permalink +2 rate up rate down ReplyAs an American, I am tired of all this bashing amongst the politicians. How are we trust these "leaders" to do their jobs. Please stick to what's important to us: economy, health care, war, oil spill, country's safety...Argue on where you stand on those issues and what you're going to do to make it better. And, I agree with the former Alaska governor, "When you do that, they come after you with all kinds of made-up nonsense to try to knock you down. Believe me, I've been there."--Yes, she's been there...always spewing made-up nonsense.

This statement, whether uttered in jest or not, shows him for what he is and if the voters elect him, they get what they pay for. The same goes for Ms. Haley, if she did have those affairs and it comes out later, she will pay the price and so will the people.
In today's world, where morals, ethics and character don't exist, we all get what we pay for, for giving up our ideals and thinking these characteristics don't matter.
