Will Folks AKA 'Douchebag'/Nikki Haley Saga Continues

While I might not give a damn whether Will Folks did or did not have an inappropriate relationship with politician Nikki Haley, the circus surrounding the story has become the stuff soap operas are written about and the saga continues as Folks provides communications between Haley and himself, Haley says they are nothing more than colleagues and ABC interviews Haley.

The fun side of As The Stomach Churns here is the reactions around the blogosphere. (Yes, I know this cannot be fun for Haley, but hey, Ace and McCain are a riot and I cannot help laughing)

For the record, Mr. Robert Stacy McCain, calling someone a "douchebag" when they are, in fact, a douchebag, is perfectly acceptable. To show some solidarity with Mr. McCain, Folks will now be referred to as "douchebag".

The other day in the obligatory douchebag/Haley post, I pointed out the hilarity of Ace of Spades and he does not fail to continue to entertain.

Reminder:

Now , go read the rest and the follow up with the links below for more of this running soap opera from Ace's perspective.

Note to Ace- Thanks dude, best laugh I have had in a while and I love your style... I am still laughing over here while attempting to type, backspace and type some more.


The most interesting part of this saga is the world of hurt douchebag has brought down on himself as people seriously start to look into who douchebag really is and his history.

Last but not least, the Erickson teaser.... "We Know Who Did It"

Who paid Will Folks? He was allegedly offered money. A LOT of money. In fact, RedState now confirms through a whole heap of sources that he’s been trying to sell this story for a year.

We know who bit.

We know who didn’t bite.

We know who paid Will Folks to push this story out there.

Oh, and you guys in the media, you’ve let Folks string you along. We’re going to string you along.

Tune in later for the answer.


The only hint Erickson has provided so far is this:

Oh, and to rule out any overwrought speculation, our fearless, intrepid, magnanimous, and gracious Editor Erick Erickson would like to inform you that you can stop with the “was it a Democrat” speculation. It was not a Democrat.


Stay tuned to Erickson's blog, Red State today, for he promises to actually name the names. Here is the link to the main page.

Another for the record statement, I don't care whether they had an affair, whether it was a working relationship only or whatever, it is the media circus surrounding it that I am finding extremely interesting.

Stupid soap operas, this is why I stopped watching television in the daytime...jeeeeez.

Special clear hat tip to Robert Stacy McCain for the douchebag reference. (Heh)
