Nikki Haley’s Imaginary Mark Sanford Scandal-BOOK INCLUDES BIZARRE REF TO APPALACHIAN TRAIL SAGA
We knew that S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley’s new book would take all sorts of artistic license, but the governor’s “Fiction Addiction” may have jumped to a higher energy level as it relates to a bizarre claim involving former Gov. Mark Sanford.
According to Haley, unidentified members of the mainstream media questioned her back in 2009 about her proximity to the sex scandal that ended the governor’s presidential aspirations and nearly brought down his administration.
Specifically, Haley claims that she was accused of having been in Argentina with the former governor at the time he was purportedly “hiking the Appalachian Trail.” This line of questioning – which Haley says was initiated because her SUV was discovered in a parking space next to Sanford’s SUV at the Columbia Metropolitan Airport on June 23, 2009 – forced her into a “humiliating position” and caused her to “for the first time come face-to-face with what it meant to be a woman in the (gubernatorial) race.”
There’s only one problem with Haley’s version of events … like virtually everything else that comes out of her mouth, it appears to be a complete and total fabrication.

She cannot stop lying.
In all the hooha about Sanford's proclivities in the wild, she was barely mentioned. I don't remember her being even remotely at the center. Her SUV was never found next to his car. Believe me, that would be easy to prove and would have made the front pages. She didn't have enough clout or powerful friends to cover it up.
She goes out of her way to put herself in the middle of that mishegas. I would want to stay as far from it as possible.
I have no idea what she is up to. I think she is a pathological liar or has some bizarre theory on how to get ahead politically. Few had any idea that she was this type of person. It is beyond weird. I think she is overtaking Alvin Greene in that respect.

If they did, they either agreed with her or were afraid to say anything.
I gave up trying to discern any rational reason for doing this.
The only idea I could come up with is that she is aiming solely for the national audience. The MSM can't get enough of her. Only one or two reporters bother to find out what the people of SC think.
They would get an earfull negative comments from 98% of the people.
I think they want a new Palin-like person to push their ratings. They are glomming onto her in the same manner.
Haley claimed she won when she actually came in second. The other parents corrected this claim. It was easily checked.
If she wasn't known for her lying, Nikki might have gotten a pass on this. However, it just added to her bizarre proclivity to lie.
Have you heard ONE person on teevee question that account? They are too busy hanging on her every word.
smh
