Insert foot in mouth. What would possess someone in their right mind to tell someone else that they look like something else. Why bring it up at all? Btw, what do you guys suppose Angle thinks what Asians look like, after all, Angle considers herself to be Asian?

:hmm:

For the longest time I thought you were Canadian.

Well, we all know you're just clueless.

My buddy is half Japanese half white(not sure what kind) and he mostly refers to himself as white even though he looks more Japanese imo.

Latinos can be confused with Asians if they got Native American blood. Since Native Americans came from Asia thousands of years ago.

I think that's a common confusion. I noticed that many in Mexico were confused by some Asian tourists.

Philipinos can look Mexican

The Tea Party Elite sure are dumb.

Philipinos can look Mexican

I'd hate to be a Filipino in Arizona then.

Disappointed over what exactly?

 

[Ricochet]

Cambodian here and not uncommon for me to be mistaken for Mexican.

What a great way to go through life. Cutting off the nose to spite the face.

I've known several Mexicans that looked like ornamentals.
Almond-shaped eyes, lighter complexion than MOST Mexicans...I'm NOT sure whether they actually had some Oriental in their ancestry or not though...

You've really got to wonder about her advisors (and her political judgment). Why in the world would a teabagger ever voluntarily agree to appear before a latino high school student association for a Q&A session a few weeks before election day in an exceedingly tight race. Especially with a candidate (no insult intended) who has demonstrably shown her ability to place foot in mouth.

Why the fuck did she even bring this up? Is this another expression of xenophobia?

Was it something taken out of context?

She was responding to a student's question about her illegal immigration ad.
