Nikki Haley ( img via CNN)
A while ago , a fellow blogger on UD wrote this post on Nikki Haley - up and coming Republican representative of Indian origin,
However, we would like to withdraw any desi claim ( Uber or otherwise) to Ms.Haley.
Will Folks, the editor of what many consider the state’s most influential political news Web site, wrote Monday that he had an “an inappropriate physical relationship” with Haley, who is married with two children, several years ago( link)
Before anyone gets their chuddies into a twist over this.
“I have been 100 percent faithful to my husband throughout our 13 years of marriage,” Haley said in a statement issued by her campaign. “This claim against me is categorically and totally false.”
Haley called the accusation “sad” and “disgraceful” and questioned the timing of the charge, which comes just days after some polls indicated Haley vaulting to the front of the four-way Republican primary race.
I am not going to bother to state that a candidates private life is of zero concern to me OR that the double standards over women politican’s transgressions vs. male politicans will definitely come into play ( Remember John Edwards? And how the media protected his lying, cheating ass through the Primary?)
I will even not labor on the fact that Folks did something horribly disgraceful ( far worse than the affair - even assuming this charge is true) by publicly blogging about a private a relationship , obviously without the consent of the other party or concern for her children.
No- what I want to say is that : Nikki Haley cannot be desi.
Because we all know that desi women do not have affairs (Chee! Chee!). It is simply against our “culture”.
What is more, desis do not have sex at all – leave apart extra marital sex.
So can we give her back?
