Will the South Carolina Democrats Tolerate This Racism?

By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  May 16th, 2012 at 09:57 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

Phil Bailey sat next to South Carolina State Senator Jake Knotts when Knotts called Governor Nikki Haley, then a candidate for Governor, a “raghead.”

Phil Bailey did nothing.

Phil Bailey is the Executive Director of the South Carolina Senate Democratic Caucus. It seems he is now intent on one upping Jake Knotts.

Bailey, who had no problem with Knotts’ “raghead” comment when even the First Vice Chairman of the State GOP, Patrick Haddon, was calling for Knotts’s resignation, seems determined to one up Knotts with racism.

Bailey has been on twitter referring to Nikki Haley, a Methodist of Indian descent, as the “Sikh Jesus.” Governor Haley’s parents are sikh, but she and her husband attend a Methodist Church.

Not content to do it just once, Phil Bailey did it a second time, complete with a picture of a dog.

I know the South Carolina Democrats have low standards. But do they really want one of their employees to first be cool with the Governor of their state being called a “raghead” and then himself calling her a “sikh Jesus”?

    the new media is finally exposing the Dims’ true colors. They have always been racists, and only supported LBJs policies because it ultimately meant that they would gain more power by having control over the success/survival of black people.

    If you want to find true Evil Incarnate in SC Democrats, look to their Chairman, the excreable Dick Harpootlian, liar, pervert, and consort of the Devil Himself.

    No more loathesome creature has ever crawled upon the earth. He makes Paul Begala and David Brock look almost human.

  • jiminga

    yes. They’re Democrats, after all.

  • funwithknives

    ….Give us a coupla’ links, or specifics !

    We need examples for future reference and use…….besides ,this is getting really telling for Progressives. A few months ago ,there was an article about the history of Progressivism in the U S from Reconstruction, onwards.{See:National Review,sorry no link, my bad!}

    Adding on to the story and timeline can’t be too harmful, now can it?

    I’m not certain whose picture will accompany the definition of the word “hypocrite” in the next edition of the encyclopedia, but I’m absolutely sure it will be a DEMOCRAT!

  • johnt

    Not for a second do they see a problem with this, not even if in the next breath they are calling Normal People racists. Which, btw, they never would or did do with Rev Wright & you-know-who.
    Shine the light on the vermin, big time. Truly they are dangerous, absent any hint of a civilized if minimal human decency.

    When it happens in their ranks it is for an alleged good cause. So then it is just called politics. The thing that people are going to have to wake up to is that the Progressives are here and in full force. They own the media not just TV or news magazines but the Media period. Even FOX has succumbed to their influence maybe not as much as others but still some. The only thing worst than a Liberal is a Progressive Liberal. Make no mistake though Progressives are in Both parties. Liberals are not just relegated to the Democrats. They have been infiltrating the Republican Party for years and are now just about to take it over entirely. GW Bush, Karl Rove, McCain, Boehner McConnell etc are and have helped it along. After all it is Karl Rove’s direct fault that Harry Reid is till in the Senate. While the Tea Party candidate running against him was a nut I would rather have a nut in place than Harry.

  • fishgod3

    Harry Reid is still in the senate because the tea party pushed the “nut” over Sue Lowden,who would have wiped the street with Harrys pork barrel politics. Ask me I was there!!! Now we must win the entire senate to do what should have been done in the last election.

    Just more of the same from the Rats, Civility is to be given to them but not to anyone else.
    The attacks on anybody and everybody not walking lockstep with the obama and the Demonic Rat party AKA the Communist wanna-be dictators is gonna be coming hard, fast and Visciously.

  • premonition010

    Next weeks “Breaking News” for the Lame Stream Media. “Democrats Submit Bill to make it a Hate Crime to hate crime”.

    More self proclaimed ‘Genius Strategy’ from a bunch of M O R O N S !

  • franknitti

    i live in SC and don’t necessarily agree with all that Haley does, but the dims to call her out like this is just tooooooo much. If a Repub had said something similar about clyburn it would be all over msnbc.
    hypocrisy at it’s finest.

  • brojohn2

    Ever watch coffee being made? The grounds are in the top, the water is boiled then flows through the grounds and out the bottom. This hate comes from the top echelons of the Dem Party. The president has been playing the hate card for the last 3 years, Biden too. The party is emulating the party bosses!

    Nothing less than complete obliteration of your enemy is their motto. They will do what they can to destroy anyone who stands in the way of the Supreme Leader. President for Life Barack H. Obama.
