Bonus Quote of the Day


"So that's what we want is a secure and sovereign nation and, you know, I don't know that all of you are Latino. Some of you look a little more Asian to me. I don't know that."

-- Nevada U.S. Senate candidate Sharron Angle (R), quoted by the Las Vegas Sun, speaking to the Hispanic Student Union at Rancho High School.

12. Our first Americans are Asian. Really.

Beside that point. OMG Does she realize how big the Asian community is in Nevada? I am really tired of going to Las Vegas to party with my OS sisters and friends in the Philippino community. I don't drink. I don't gamble.

OK I sing Kareoke and dance. Asian women...ohhhh!!! But I am very happy with my GF. But still. So pretty.

So let's talk reality. The sex workers in Vegas. I hadn't been to Vegas since I met my GF in a long time. Lots of Asian sex workers... legal... I think not. I was amazed at the brothels that weren't there when I was last there. And this is just four years ago!! I used to go two times a year and they weren't there like they are now. And the crime organizations take their cut. I know I was in show biz. It's the same biz.

16. Just to set the record straight--

Yes, the Asian (mostly Asian-American) population in Nevada is fairly large. We're on the brink of the percentage where by state law election materials have to be printed in Chinese, as well as in English and Spanish.

Most of these Asian-Americans are NOT sex workers. Not that there's anything wrong with sex workers, as the saying goes. But as a presumably young, unmarried male tourist you may be looking at a skewed sample. And BTW, we don't have legal brothels in Vegas. (I don't know how many undercover ones and that's not something I'm likely to discover.) Just sayin' (I agree with your main two points.)

13. I'm both nervous and upset about this particular race

Come on, Harry - we cannot have her in the Senate...no, no, no, no, no.

[blondeatlast]

14. SCARY--I mean that sincerely. Take it from an Arizonan, that kind of talk is

rather common but until recently it was whispered.

It's becoming increasingly okay to speak bigotry in polite company nowadays and I don't think it is by accident. It's planned. Pretty soon we'll all be carrying papers like many of my fellow Arizona citizens must.

I remember my mom, crying in front of the TV, watching fire hoses turned on peaceful marchers. Now we have Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his followers.

:cry:

15. K & R
