Just lost all respect for Niki Haley when she walked out on the Palestinian speaker at the UN. [View all]

At a time like this, when lives are lost and war and peace are in the balance, such a display of disrespect for suffering people is uncalled for in my opinion. She is not Presidential material in my book. I used to think more highly of her.
