I love the twisting of semantics about her father’s statement. There is only one way to look at it. The “Minority type thing” does not refer to Palin and her friend.
Just more half-wit apologist nonsense from those Palin sycophants who still think this ridiculous woman is relevant in any meaningful way.
They don’t want to accept that her “book tour” stops consisted almost entirely of towns with a decidedly caucasian majority. When she skulked back from Hawaii, she went to Idaho, again, a state with a decidedly caucasian majority.
The followers of Palin (FOPs) must suffer from some serious issues of denial. They blame “left-wing” media for her ills, refusing to see that she brings negative press upon herself, all by herself.
First it was the Blacks, then the Hispanics (hello, John McCain). I don’t blame her father for bringing this to the forefront, but now, whether she wants it or not, she made it a trifecta.
So no, there isn’t racism in the GOP.
Just ask Jose Feliciano. “The Fox and Rice Experience” engaged a couple of humanoid insects to turn an inclusive and positive song about Christmas into a vile, racist, anti-Hispanic rant. No, no racism there.
Who’s next? Native Americans haven’t had enough? What more can the GOP do, to flush their party down the drain.

Perhaps too many Asian men asked her out and she perhaps finds race mixing disgusting..you can perhaps include two other GOP women in that category as well..and they are in the US House!

Ahh yes, the old, “I’m not racist, I’m just uncomfortable around Asians. And Blacks. You know, so long as they keep away from me, and don’t move next door (dear lord!) — I have no problem with them! But I’m not a racist.”

Get a clue.

Richard. You are probably right. I don’t think she is a racist. Probably grew up among a lot of white people so she felt uncomfortable with so many Asians around. Everyone has their own comfort zone when it comes to mixing with other races.
That’s why many people in the US still tend to move out to the suburbs where the white folks are and often feel a little nervous when a black person moves in next door.

By the way Sarah’s husband is 1/8th Alaskan native. Looks Caucasion. YOu can probably technically call him an “American Indian”. If you are 1/8 Asian and 7/8 white, I’d probably consider you as “white”

I thought your photo was a crack up…especially since Asian Americans have always been “the model minority”: good grades, hard work, law abiding, frugal” …and all the other racial profiling stuff

At first I thought “This must be another baseless rumor”.
But apparently it is true. At least the comment by her father
In a book Called “Sarah from Alaska” by authors Scott Conroy and Shushannah Walshe apparently interviewed Sarah’s father Chuck Heath. According to Chuck, Sarah’s decision to join her high school friend in transferring out of the school (University of Hawaii) had to do with “being outside her comfort zone for the first time in her life in an environment dominated by Asians and Pacific Islanders. “It just wasn’t exactly what they expected,” he says. “They were a minority type thing and it wasn’t glamorous, so she came home.”

I haven’t read the book myself so I’m only going by what other’s say the books says, but the book is out in hardback and perhaps someone can read it an comment on whether it says that or not

You’re kidding, right? The woman who married a Native American is ’scared of Asians?’

I can get my tits elsewhere. I’
