SC Democrat Suggests Indian-American Nikki Haley Go 'Back To Wherever The Hell She Came From'
[MEDIAITE] South Carolina Democratic Chairman Dick I don't want to buy the black vote. I just want to rent it for a dayHarpootlian ...once and present chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party. Harpootlian is the man who, when he lost to a Publican in 1994, said The people have spoken. The bastards... is getting some heat today for a comment he made about that state's Republican governor at Friday night's Jefferson-Jackson dinner, shortly before Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz KidBiden The former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect to be found in the World's Greatest Deliberative Body... took the stage. Harpootlian's comment came during his introduction of South Carolina gubernatorial candidate Vincent Sheheen. "In about 18 months from now," he said, "hopefully he'll have sent Nikki Haley ...first woman to serve as Governor of South Carolina, and the second Indian-American governor in the country, after Bobby Jindal of Louisiana. At the age of 39, Haley is the youngest current governor in the U.S., a distinction formerly held by Jindal. She is a Republican, which really grates on the Dems... back to wherever the hell she came from." The comment drew cheers and laughs from the audience in attendance, but Harpootlian is now facing harsh criticism, given Governor Nikki Haley's Indian heritage. "Unfortunately, this seems to be a trend coming from the South Carolina Democratic Party," Haley front man Rob Godfrey said in a statement. "Fortunately, the people of South Carolina are better than Harpootlian and his ilk, and we have faith that they will see right through their consistent attempts to play to the lowest common denominator."
