That's just silly. That's as nonsensical as saying if you eat fruit then you can't be good at running. You're good at what you're good at, if you apply yourself to both programming and graphic design then chances are you can become good at both. Programmers generally aren't great at graphic design because they spend most of the time doing the programming and letting others do the design.

Yes they can... 

Well, I am submitting myself as one example. I am a Software Engineer. All what I did for my degree was just earning code. But yet I had a great vision of design. Now, I am one of the main person in my company to manage the UI and UX, yet I code most of the time as well. 

Eveything needs creativity. If you are good at it you can do better. You can be better at coding and designing as well.

Programing and GD are entirely2 different talents. Though there are no boundaries, it is not a given.
