In the New Yorker, Sam Tanenhaus, in his review of Palin’s book — “Going Rogue,” writes: “….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.” In any case, Palin reports that she much preferred her last stop, the University of Idaho, “because it was much like Alaska yet still ‘Outside.’” [ READ MORE ] [ REFERENCES: PALIN QUESTION OF THE DAY | HUFFINGTON POST ]
Why Idaho? — The retirement home of Mark Furman, the former LAPD detective whose racism literally unhooked O.J. Simpson from the jaws of justice, and of Bruce Willis — the macho Republican movie actor who harbors the delusion that the United States should invade Colombia to end drug trafficking. When 27 year old Ashton Kutcher stole Bruce’s wife, 40 year old Demi Moore, “tough guy” Willis bought a house next door to the couple. It is also rumored that Demi Moore’s daughter (with Willis), Rumer Willis had a crush on her Stepdad Ashton Kutcher. Talk about deviance in Idaho, John McClane!
Idaho is a tiny little (96 percent white) pacific north west state with a stinking racist culture. With Ruby Ridge to the north of Sandpoint (The birthplace of Sarah Palin) and the former Aryan Nations to the south, Idahoans are sandwiched in between the most filthy elements of racism in the United States — propped by gun-sucking Republican politicians — from top to bottom.
Idaho is state where bigots and “frightened” right-wingers go to retire — to keep safe from leprosy, pedophiles, Spanish and rampant godlessness; far away from blacks, liberals and “diseased” immigrants. It is a state where “white folks” home-school their children to avoid the “corrupting effects” of liberalism and homosexuality.
From the 1970s until 2001, the Aryan Nations had its headquarters in a 20 acre (81,000 square meters) compound at Hayden Lake, Idaho. In September 2000 the Southern Poverty Law Center won a $6.3 million judgment against the Aryan Nations from an Idaho jury who awarded punitive and compensatory damages to Victoria Keenan and her son, Jason, who were attacked by Aryan Nations guards in 1999. Bullets struck the Keenan’s car several times then the car crashed and an Aryan member held the Keenans at gunpoint. As a result of the judgment, Richard Butler turned over the 20-acre compound to the Keenans, who then sold the property to a philanthropist, who subsequently donated it to North Idaho College, which designated the land as a “peace park.”
Apparently Sarah Palin couldn’t stand the “smell” of Hawaii and its racially diverse peoples, hence the move to Idaho, to mingle comfortably with REAL AMERICANS.
Obama has made cynics wilt, and stirred the heart of long-dead politicos in places where Democrats haven’t had a pulse in years.
