“This isn’t the first time I’ve said it,” Knotts said. “I’m not on a crusade to downgrade her, but if someone asks me I’ll tell ‘em. And look here, someone wants to vote for her knowing the truth, vote for her.”

Knotts said that South Carolina is a religious community.

“We need a good Christian to be our governor,” he said. “She’s hiding her religion. She ought to be proud of it. I’m proud of my god.”

Knotts says he believes Haley’s father has been sending letters to India saying that Haley is the first Sikh running for high office in America. He says her father walks around Lexington wearing a turban.

“We’re at war over there,” Knotts said.

Asked to clarify, he said he did not mean the United States was at war with India, but was at war with “foreign countries.”

As someone who was born and raised as a Sikh.....until I became an atheist....

What the HELL is a Sikh doing being a Republican? Stupid to say the least.

Second of all, *******? Garbage Old Party Christian Values.

That's pretty darn mean spirited; as a Christian, I unequivocally condemn his comments, as I suspect most, if not all Christians here would. This guy behaves nothing like a Christian and your comments were hurtful.

I don't like what he said and I am sure he will pay the price through the voters yet it is not as bad as Carter refering to hussein obama as "that little black boy". Now that is way over the line!

Calm down. I was making it the initials of the GOP. Garbage Old Party Christian values.

I wasnt saying Christian values were garbage. Just that the GOP claims they endorse them.

I sincerely sorry that you were hurt.

Haley married a Methodist and converted, however Knotts thinks she is still a Sikh and is hiding her religion to get elected in god Country.

He absolutely behaves like a Christian--that is, a common, cretinous loon. He thinks we're at war with Sikhs in India, or hey, close enough.

One wonders, as with most Christians, whether he was partially asphyxiated on his umbilical cord at birth.
