How to block the "Palin doesn't like Asians" smear

The latest smear against Palin is available at huffingtonpost.com/2009/12/06/palins-father-she-left-ha_n_381724.html and elsewhere: According to [her father], the presence of so many Asians and Pacific Islanders made her uncomfortable [when she went to school in HI]: "They were a minority type thing and it wasn't glamorous, so she came home."

1. Get a copy of the book and write down the full context of that quote; if it differs in meaning from the above, use that fact to show readers of the HuffPost that they're misleading those readers. The same goes of the other sources.

2. Call or email him and find out what he meant.

Here's my entry:

Any Caucasian student who's attended school in Hawaii might look at her father's comment in a slightly different light.

This is the state that brought us 'Kill Haole Day'.

[21twelve]

My first thought was the minorities were Sarah and a friend(s)? And the lack of glamor refers to being in Hawaii. One thing to visit a nice resort and beach on vacation, quite the other I imagine to go to school, live in typical student housing - and probably not right on the beach!

[Mamzelle]

No worries. It doesn't have legs. An offhand remark by a dad about his teenage daughter being put off by very unfamiliar surroundings.

As someone who was in Hawaii about the same time Sarah was, it was a whole different world. For one thing, I met a lot of Asians who had a certain disdain for "haoles." Obama grew up in a melieu that didn't just tolerate diversity, but cherished it and resented white people. Japanese were the "ichiban", next the Chinese...and they had a sentimental and condescending attitude toward the Polynesians.

Don't believe me? Ask someone from Hawaii at that time about being in high school on "kill haole" day.

That picture makes a certain part of my anatomy uncomfortable and would make Mrs. Vigilanteman even more uncomfortable if she caught me looking at it.

This smear is not going anywhere.
Why?
Because Asians are exactly the kinds of people who are likely to back Saran Palin. They tend to be very hard working, believe in the American dream, strong families, and tend to be very conservative.
Smears like this one wouldn't change a damn thing.
It's like how the Democrats have continued to get away with really outrageous remarks concerning blacks, because the blacks just refuse to get outraged if the one making the remarks is a Democrats. Joe Biden and his comments about 0bozo(b4 he was nominated BP candidate comes to mind).

I love it when a plan comes together... :)

It’s all Bravo Sierra. The only reason the libs are grasping for straws is the total fear they have of Sarah. It paralyzes them. Ever since Huckabee was removed from the 2012 picture the attacks on Sarah have reached a fervid pitch.

And they're voting Democrat anyway. It won't pay to underestimate the cumulative effect of things like this. Palin is already facing an uphill battle against the media, the Democrats and even the GOP elite - she does not need stupid comments by her family alienating potential voters. She needs to make the Levi Johnston embarrassment go away, and she needs to get her family's collective mouth under control.

use that fact to show readers of the HuffPost

Do you realize that Sarah has her Facebook page to refute any lies and smears spread against her?
Look how fast she killed the private jet story and divorce rumors.
Plus she has dozens of blogs and talk radio backing her up.
Don't waste your time worrying about what leftist flacks say about her

[excopconservative]

Exactly right, bravo sierra. It’s killing them watching the attention Sarah is getting, even from Democrats and from the media. They see the big crowds at her events, mostly female, a constituency the democrats think they own. Their lies haven’t worked and the turn-out is the evidence. When they get down to charges of racism, that’s the last trick in their bag.

As the Sarah’s Facebook friends increase, the book sales tally, and the media thaws even a little, liberals are beside themselves.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Its the HUFFINGTON COMPOST..nothing Sarah says or does will make them stop hating her. Its a liberal drag of a paper and a disgrace. She doesnt have to prove a damn thing to that rag of a paper

[Lorianne]

Agreed. Her family is her worst enemy.

I didn’t take her father to say what Huffington Post is saying he said (and SP certainly didn’t say it). That headline is slimy rumormongering at its worst.

Actually, the sentence that is attributed to him doesn’t make any sense at all. If it’s accurate, it’s pretty bad coming from a teacher.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Please re-read my post.
Palin literally has an army of dedicated supporters ready to fight to the death for her. She has her Facebook page which is unfiltered and which she controls.

The crap that happened to her in 2008 isn't going to happen again, and you can take that to the bank.

[fantom]

Exactly . Democrats msm democrats msm . That's all you see here . God lord it's like Stockholm's syndrome . Knee jerk to every palin attack . She is not Bush she will fight back . Palin is no dope . Even the slow wits attacking her will be ouy of scandal gas by the time O finishes his 2nd term and she is ready to make the move.

[Lily4Jesus]

“by the time O finishes his 2nd term????

[LussaO]

Asians are the kind of people to back Sarah Palin. They tend to be very hard working, believe in the American dream, strong families, and tend to be very conservative.

Then why would she be uncomfortable to be among them?

[SmokingJoe]

Then why would she be uncomfortable to be among them?”

Who says she is?

[SmokingJoe]

“And they're voting Democrat anyway”

As far Indians for example, tend to vote Republican.
