1) WTF is this guy talking out of school like this for?
2) I guess she wasn't going to win hawaii anyway, but it won't bode well for "minority types" in the other 48 states...
little-noticed paragraph in the latest New Yorker review of Sarah from Alaska (and Sarah Palin's Going Rogue) reveals that Palin's father told reporters she'd quit Hawaii after a brief stint at college there because she was uncomfortable around Pacific Islanders.
Palin, though notoriously ill-travelled outside the United States, did journey far to the first of the four colleges she attended, in Hawaii. She and a friend who went with her lasted only one semester. “Hawaii was a little too perfect,” Palin writes.
“Perpetual sunshine isn’t necessarily conducive to serious academics for eighteen-year-old Alaska girls.” Perhaps not. But Palin’s father, Chuck Heath, gave a different account to [Scott] Conroy and [Shushannah] Walshe [authors of 'Sarah From Alaska'].
According to him, the presence of so many Asians and Pacific Islanders made her uncomfortable: “They were a minority type thing and it wasn’t glamorous, so she came home.”

240 - do we really need to go here?
Obama / Rev Wright?
Dreams of my Fathers?

obama's racist ties were thoroughly discussed - rightfully so.
I'm betting there are a swarm of lib reporters traveling to hawaii to interview palin's college classmates, neighbors, etc.
If this one is true, and she ever said some bad things about minorities, yikes.

Most people, when they start making more money move to a nicer house in a nicer neighborhood.

I have a friend that's in the pharmacy program at the University of Hawaii and he's never complained of Asian intimidation. Perhaps Sarah Palin is an idiot?
And I never said my area was the home of cultural diversity. Far, far from it.

My parents lived there for 9 years. Would visit them all the time. She probably got a few good doses of the "stink" eye. But other then that. They are pretty nice welcoming folk in 95% of the Island.

"what does my post have to do with Tiger?"
Nothing. But you have to expect that when confronted with indefensible statement about their hero, Alaskan blogger Palin, they have to change the subject.

If that was the intention, then that's lame.
As far as Palin: still a side show.

For everyone who defended Barry with Dreams of my Fathers, STFU!
As far as her statement, I could care less, I feel the same way half the time where i live. When I go shopping and everyone is speaking spanish, indian, arabic, russian or whatever, do you guys think I am celebrating diversity?
-

False...
Silver Springs MD.
South Dekalb County GA,
Blacks with money....Black Communities..
I would explain the whole thing to you but it would take a while... later on tonight ill explain it

Her ratings are almost tied with Barry. Gallup has him at 47% today. CNN has her at 46%.

Sadly Billy everytime you open your mouth a fist sized chunk of your brain falls out, which is amazing since your brain was only pea sized to begin with.
The shocker here is whites are the minority. I thought Sarah somehow felt uncomfortable around her fellow white...because she was used to only being around Eskimos...especially being that she could see Russia from her front porch...

Jesus what a bunch of thin skinned babies with no sense of humor!!!It was a fucking joke you stupid ass.This story is yet another attempt by the left to smear Palin.It will be investigated,found to be idiotic as ALL other negative stories before it!
As far as 240 saying Obamas racism was examined during the election.By whom?Please tell me other then right wing talk and FOX ever discussed it?Please tell me when your idols on MSNBC looked into it.Please give me the link.

I have no problem being honest with my beliefs. When I go out and hear nothing but spanish, russian, arabaic, etc, I want to puke. When I see mexicans lined up along the streets sitting on trash cans hanging out like its Mexico City, I want to puke. When I see women wearing burkas in 100 degree whether stinking up the subway, it sucks. Does anyone really feel otherwise?
Its the phony guilt ridden white hypocrites and liberal liars who are the real racists who would die if their lilly white daughter brought home a black guy. Behind closed doors, those "open minded" white scumbags are worse than anyone.
-

Nothing.
Except attempted derailed tactics on his part.

So either palin doesn't like minorities, or her dad maliciously and inexplicably lied about this.
Which do you guys think it is?

I think he was probably being honest, probably the same way Obama was honest about "typical white people", or Biden about 7/11 an indian accents, or Jesse Jackson about "Hymie Town", or Hillary "Fucking Jew Bastards", or any of the rest of these people who try to hide their beliefs.

I've heard multiple times that native hawaiians are notoriously racist towards whites, especially the younger crowds. I've never lived in hawaii but if this is true then it sounds pretty reasonable if she left for that reason.
I'd leave baltimore in a heartbeat once i finish school. The native negros have shown me the real meaning of racism.
-
interesting.

Native Hawaiians are a small part of the population of Hawaii, there is even a independence movement. (not to be taken seriously). They usually just give you the stink eye. Hawaii is comprised of mostly 3+ generation immigrants.

where did you get this one from?
the nat enq?
daily kos?
you guys ever notice how none of the idiotic palin threads 240 starts ever have a link to the source?
hmmmmmm I wonder why ;)

I thought the birther thing was bad. This is REALLY bad. Let's see how many town hall meetings/debates she wants to show up at in 2011 or 2012. Imagine the questions. The birthers will say "Are you with us", and the minorities will say "Why did your day say you hate us". Add another 3 years of gaffes, and it's gonna be unreal.
It's easy for her to sing about how awesome town halls are, when they're FOXnews events and she has no Qs about her. Without the wall to keep her protected from talking herself into a corner, she's just going to keep alienating chunks of voters.
her dad admits she moved because she hates minorities. WTF man.
-
333, this is valid as fuck for 240 to post. I see no problem with posting this. And you've posted your ass off on Rev Wright along with others so please ::)
Ok. If true, I dont have a problem with it. I feel the same way where I live and want to leave asap as I no longer feel comfortable here with all the foreigners. Does that make me racist?

Honestly, I have absolutely no problem with it since it is something most people believe anyway but are too cowardly to admit.
-
"Honestly, I have absolutely no problem with it since it is something most people believe anyway but are too cowardly to admit. "
You're a white guy.
Do you think people who happen to be, say, minorities, will feel the same way? I know BILLY will immediately point out the fact that most african americans vote dem.
But hispanics are the group that really decides every election, right? fastest growing group. I wonder what palin will say she she is asked by a hispanic kid, "Would you move to get away from me, or is just hawaiian minorities that you dislike"?
-
It looks bad imo too.
Not really. I know many asians who are more racist then whites. You get a few bronx italians and korean grocers together and all of a sudden that conversation goes right where you know where.
I seriously dont have a problerm with bigotry, racism, or other shit like that. Sure it can be stupid, but the govt stealing from me and fucking me over every day is far worse than someone disliking me becuase I have a vowel at the end of my last name.
-
Now she's a racist side show.....lol

Why don't you just leave the country then.

Most hispanics I have met are more racist than whites when it comes to blacks. In fact many hate each other. You call a guy from the DR a mexican where I live and the knives come out.

Do you think this will have a big affect on her future political career?
-

Why don't you just leave the country then.
Do you live in NY? No. If not you have no idea how bad it can get. How about $125.00 meter tickets? How about they just mandated we get new license plates just to raise revenue? How about doubling dmv fees every year? How about the highest property taxes in the nation? How about mortgage recording and transfer taxes?
You have no idea what its like until you have lived in a place like NYC, CA, or NJ.
Te govt is no different than the mafia.
-

Probably will help her. If rev wright and dreams of my fathers didnt hurt obama, why should this matter?
I like her more actually.

I have some friends who do. All Conservative, 3 of which are self made millionaires. They hate it. I spent some time with them in Buffalo a few years ago. It was sickening when they explained the taxes they pay. Mostly because of NYC's drain on the state budget.
However, it is the place that has provided you with a business and if you really feel you are getting stolen from then leave the state or the country.
-

You like her more because she expressed racist views?
If you really think it will help you are thinking with a less than full deck. Obama is black. She's white. She gets the burden of the majority. If this comes out more and more she'll be fried. Who wants to vote for racist? Oh yeah, you do. Perhaps David Duke does too.
-
333, are you saying there is no problem and you have no problem with the discrimination that's gone on against Italian Americans?
Not really. I really could care less. Most italian-americans I know dont really care about it and just do thewir own thing and by and larrge have really done well because they dont sit around and cry like little bitches like other groups do. Seriously, I know the stereotypes, the jokes, etc, but whatever, I do my best and dont even think about it.
Do you ever see large groups of italians cry about WW2? No.
Most people of my hertitage that I know are too proud to act like other groups who carry on a 24/7 cry baby campaign.
-
Who gives a shit? I used to live in Aurora, also know as little mexico here in Illinois. I lived in a relativly nice neighborhood up until about 15 years ago then it went to shit. Minorities, low income housing all that good shit. So packed my shit and moved to a better area, am I a racist because I got sick of my house or car being broken into on a monthly basis?
-
333, help me boil this down. What's your thesis here, that it's ok if you're honest about it? I gotta wrap my head around this, help me out bro.
Absolutely. I have no problems with people expressing their beliefs honestly. Its the liars I hate. Where i live, I have met more lracist liberal whites than anything else. These "open minded" liberals living in Scarsdale, Bronxville, Chappaqua (Home of the Clintons and 99% white BTW), are the biggest phonies and liars of the bunch.
Most people are prejudiced and they have a right to be. We are supposed to be free right?
I'm cool with someone telling "I dont like you because you are white but I am telling you that to your face, and wont bs you behind your back and make you think everything is cool"
-
wait, so Obama openly expressed his own struggles with race in his book and you have a problem with him. Most people just deny it and would never be candid about their own stuggles with their thinking on the issue, yet you have blasted the shit out of him over it... and then have the sac to post this? hmmmm... interesting.... Also my other reply above, it's clear that your point of Italians not having a problem with it is not true. I found those in the first page and a half of returns. It's clearly a big issue for many Italian Americans. I'm sure you're not presuming to speak for them all or even most for that matter?
No. He lied about it that was my problem.
As far as italians complainig, please anyone can find a few groups making noise. however, I live in ground zero of Italo-amerrican life and think I have a little better insight on these things than you do Hugo.
-
It's not about what I think you guys are thinking. Clearly there are enough making noise about it. If you wanna say, oh not us... LOL... I guess you need to address that to all the Italian Americans that ARE bitching, not me. Looking on the net, it's a hell of a lot more than a few groups bitching. but hey, whatever, enjoy your denial. we'll just say all those pages of which I only listed a small fraction, don't exist lol....
How did Obama lie about it? You're assuming you know what's in his head now? He was open about his own struggles in the past on race, how the fuck is that lying? How do you know how he feels today about it today? You won't even give him credit for talking about it and yet you're all over it being ok if you talk about it lol... Man you're a picky son of a....
He lied about Rev. Wright. He lied about his associations. Come on Hugo - even many libs admit he was bs'ing everyone on wright.
-
240 - do we really need to go here?
Obama / Rev Wright?
Dreams of my Fathers?
Palin looks hot wearing that hat
what was the topic again??

They are trying the race card on her over something her father said.
To me, if its true, so what, its what most people do as it is.

I find it funny that libs always claim to be so open minded on race issues.Most dont live ANYWHERE near minorities.Next time your at work and its lunch time,look around the cafateria and see who sits with who at the tables.I promise you wont see much diversity.People stick with their own.
-
hey 33, aren't you Italian?
He's one of them guido thingys?
That explains a lot now.

I live in NYC and am sick of all the so-called "diversity". I want to move to to the Adirondacks and get myself a log cabin somewhere.
Most of the "liberal whites" who preach their garbage never have to deal with crap like being squashed in a subway in 100 degree heat with a pack of people speaking all different languages, wearing burkahs, stinking, etc.
-
So I'm still not clear on what's going on there 3333, the logic isn't matching up. Palin wasn't honest about it either fucking was she ;) So by your own logic, you must oppose her passionately now ahahahaha....
Do you mean REAL LOGIC or HIS LOGIC?
Cause we all know his logic ain't real.
-
He's one of them guido thingys?
That explains a lot now.
I used to be a guido, but am a metal head and gym rat more than anything else.
-
fucking guidos hahaha... you can't trust them, they'll fuck up your neighborhood and they're an eye sore with all that greasy spiked hair. They're generally stupid as hell, can't get honest work and usually turn to crime.
How is the bigot now fool?
Italians have had more a positive impact on this nation than almost any other group.
Remember where the name "America" comes from fool???
-
fucking quidos hahaha...
I'm serious. Now a lot of what he does makes sense. The duffle bag paranoia. The auto-suspension of reality and facts. The subject derailment of a topic when he can't refute facts. The loudmouth nonsensical arguing. The lust after a white woman.
Those are guido traits. He probably posts on getbig while wearing a wife beater and with a wooden bat on top of his monitor for "just in case" scenarios.
-
you can't change who you are. you'll never be welcome in certain groups, but you're cool with that.
No kidding. Why do you think I went in my own business? Do you think a law firm named "Goldman, Silverman, Hochberg, Diamond, & Rosenstein" wants a guy like me working there?
Do you think I want to be there?
-
-

For real. If I invited him to my Christmas party when he arrived the other hired help would whisk him straight to the kitchen sink and start handing him dishes.
Then counting all the silverware every 5 minutes.
Meanwhile I would be wondering where he was. Until I heard a commotion in the kitchen and found him phoning 16 of his buddies to come over and help him beat up a 70 year old lady who didn't recognize that his hair was "on point".

I have a shaved head fool.
