    Saw a clip in which she says, "We'll have mandatory term limits for congress."

    Um... (former) Governor Haley, that's a constitutional thing. Might wanna look that up.

    "We'll have mandatory cognitive tests..."

    LOLGF

    If you want to be taken seriously, be serious.

    I don't necessarily disagree, but I'm trying to be practical.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Neither of those things can be delivered by the executive branch.

      Although I have no issue with the test. I think we should have voter literacy tests. If you haven’t at least a rudimentary understanding of who and what you are voting for you don’t deserve to vote.

              I am OK with that as long as I get to decide what questions to ask in such tests and what the correct answers are for those questions.

                  Nikki is a nickname in punjabi meaning "small one". Common for some people's nickname to stick with them throughout their life.

                  Mary comes out looking like an idiot to Indians, but might resonate with people who think Nimrata can't be her "authentic self" and also be Republican.

                          LOL. Don Lemon:

                          Lemon: This whole talk about age makes me uncomfortable. I think it’s the wrong road to go down. She says people, you know, politicians are suddenly not in their prime. Nikki Haley isn’t in her prime. Sorry, When a woman is in their prime in 20s and 30s and maybe 40s…

                          Don’t shoot the messenger, I’m just saying what the facts are. Google it. Everybody at home, when is a woman in her prime? It says 20s, 30s and 40s. I’m just saying Nikki Haley should careful about saying that politics are not in their prime, and they need to be in their prime when they serve. She would not be in her prime according to Google or whatever it is.

                            Granted it's easy to pick stupid things out when a person talks on camera for a living. But I wonder what the gold standard bit of opining from Don Lemon might be? Like, something insightful or meaningful that contributes to a public discussion on something. It would be easy to pick out such stuff from Tucker Carlson, for instance. I wonder if anything useful or interesting ever comes out of Don Lemon's mouth?

                            Education is extremely important.

                                  I wouldn't use Lemon as an exhibit of erudence and competence. Word is, CNN is quite unhappy with his performance - evening or morning - and his sacking is imminent.

She says people, you know, politicians are suddenly not in their prime. Nikki Haley isn’t in her prime. Sorry, When a woman is in their prime in 20s and 30s and maybe 40s…

                                    Don’t shoot the messenger, I’m just saying what the facts are. Google it. Everybody at home, when is a woman in her prime? It says 20s, 30s and 40s. I’m just saying Nikki Haley should careful about saying that politics are not in their prime, and they need to be in their prime when they serve. She would not be in her prime according to Google or whatever it is.

                                        Yeah, I'll bet he's sorry he said that.

                                        He apologized to his colleagues.

                                        I didn't hear an apology to Haley.
