Thursday afternoon, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley posted lyrics to an Adele song on Twitter<\/a> and Facebook<\/a>. The full post reads:<\/p>\n

Rumour Has It…..Adele<\/p>\n

“People say crazy things,\nJust ’cause I said it, don’t mean that I meant it,\nJust ’cause you heard it,\nRumour has it………”<\/p>\n

NBC reporter Chuck Todd responded with what appears to be a mocking question.<\/p>\n\n\n

She really tweeted this? RT @nikkihaley<\/a>: Rumour Has It…..Adelefb.me\/1o655Kjwl<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Yes, Chuck, she did. Is there a problem with tweeting song lyrics?<\/p>\n

Hey, this might be a good time for a Chuck Todd flashback. On December 6, 2012, when asked about running for president in 2016, Congressman Paul Ryan said<\/a> that he had “decided not to decide.” Chuck Todd cleverly tweeted the following:<\/p>\n\n\n

Hey @paulryanvp<\/a>, if u choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.<\/p>\n

— Chuck Todd (@chucktodd) December 6, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Sounds innocent enough, right? Here is the chorus from a song by Canadian rock band Rush:<\/p>\n

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice\nIf you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice<\/strong>\nYou can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill\nI will choose a path that’s clear\nI will choose freewill<\/p>\n\n\n

@magmom13<\/a> @paulryanvp<\/a> good grief, it was not a taunt! It’s a song lyric… it’s called having a sense of humor!<\/p>\n

— Chuck Todd (@chucktodd) December 6, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Don’t worry, Chuck. We do have a sense of humor and we are laughing.<\/p>\n\n\n

.@chucktodd<\/a> u clearly don’t follow gov’s posts on Fb & Twitter, most of which she does herself, on a regular basis. Song lyrics a staple.<\/p>\n

\n

There you go, Chuck. You and the Governor have at least one thing in common.<\/p>\n\n\n

“Call Me”……….Blonde (1980). A great Friday afternoon song!<\/p>\n

— Nikki Haley (@nikkihaley) November 2, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Oh, and since you’re a fan of Rush, Chuck, here’s a totally random selection:<\/p>\n

The hypocrites are slandering\nThe sacred halls of Truth\nAncient nobles showering\nTheir bitterness on youth\nCan’t we find\nThe minds that made us strong\nCan’t we learn\nTo feel what’s right and wrong<\/p>\n

– Rush, Farewell to Kings<\/p>
