With the Presidential Primaries winding down, the chances of Barrack Obama ending up on the ballot – and maybe becoming President – are looking more and more like a reality. And having a President who dislikes his own grandmother, has a hate-filled spiritual advisor and enjoys hanging out with known terrorists will surely usher in some much-needed “hope and change” for America. With Barry’s star on the rise and the radical racial politics it’s sure to bring, I’ve developed my own Top 10 List to contribute to the esprit de corps. So, without any further ado, here is my list of the Top 10 things I can’t do as a white man in America … besides jump, of course.
10. I can’t flee and elude the police during a wild car chase and still be considered a “motorist.”
9. I can’t murder my ex-wife and her boyfriend and get away with the crime.
8. I can never be the victim of a hate crime, not even if I’m killed during a Mardi Gras celebration or pulled from my vehicle and beaten half to death.
7. I can never be the “victim,” in general, only the victimizer/oppressor/big bad guy.
6. I can’t, under any circumstances, refer to someone as a “monkey” or a “water buffalo.”
5. I can’t just be handed a drivers license in every country I enter illegally.
4. I can never have a job guaranteed for me by the Federal government.
3. I can’t receive a promotion at said job simply based on my skin color, rather than on my talent or ability.
2. I can never use the excuse that my angry, hate-filled and outrageous comments were “taken out of context.”

Number 2, of course! I keep telling these liberals that they're taking my comments out of context, but they just won't listen. LOL
You can't listen to stories your mom might tell you how rocks were thrown at her head when she tried to attend high school escorted by National Guardsmen.
Or how about, you'll never know the feeling of being "red-lined" at the bank and being unable to purchase a home in the "good" section of the suburbs because of the color of your skin.
These things happened in our lifetime and certainly resonate today, but of course you'll never get it.
But he's got troubles. None of them having anything to do with being "a white man in America" but serious troubles nonetheless.
What a pig you are "W."
You're just a fucking pig of a man.
But as a white police officer you are able to violently beat, taze, and kick a black man on camera and get acquitted in a court of law.
Certainly there's something to be said for that perk.
One thing you will never be able to do and that's get over yourself and your frustration with not living up to your potential. You can't accept your lot in life and want to lash out at someone, something, or an entire ethnic group. We get it. You're a white racist with a small penis. Deal with it mother fucker ;-)
Just like Germany in the 1930s. Good, hardworking Germans not able to find jobs because of the deck being stacked against them by, well, you know. Them.
Naw, that couldn't be it.
Tim ... I've talked to about this before, but apparently we need to revisit, as it seems you still have a problem with something therapists call "projection." To wit:
In psychology, psychological projection (or projection bias) is a defense mechanism in which one attributes one’s own unacceptable or unwanted thoughts or/and emotions to others. Projection reduces anxiety by allowing the expression of the unwanted subconscious impulses/desires without letting the conscious mind recognize them.
Enjoy!
But for some commentators, it's always March 7, 1965 on the Edmund Pettus Bridge.
Oh good. Could you translate for me? Because it looks like twaddle to me.
So this was more a case of showing solidarity to Mr W than actually understanding what he was trying to say?
Isn't this entire rant an exercise in projection?
You don't have to answer that...
The Pleasure Was All Mine.
And too tired or confused to translate Mr W's seeming twaddle as well? I'm sorry to hear that.
No ... it's an exercise in illustrating how liberal thought has gone too far. And the dissenting opinions expressed here only further underscore my point.
I'm Mr. Wonderful and I approve this message.
So really, how can you fault "liberals" in their "extremism" when you are guilty of doing the EXACT same thing?
Persecution complexes are never pretty. From "a white man living in America" they are pretty insufferable.
See you at Ara's...."....hangin' wit my gnomies..."
I sure hope so. I would just hate it if they left without giving me the opportunity to explain myself.
Actually I was, as it appears my wish truly did come true - I was taken out of context.
You shouldn't even be taken out of your cage.
Well ... I see Howdy Doody in Desert Camo has returned to harass and harangue me. Welcome back ... again!
You know what, Lucy? I think you're right! And I do believe that is especially the case with one of my detractors, specifically, although I'm not naming names.
I'm quite disappointed, though, that no one wished to discuss the issues I presented in a calm and rational manner. I was armed with all kinds of facts and figures about much of what I'd discussed in my blog, but apparently to no avail.
It saddens me further that they saw it as another black/white issue, which actually wasn't the intent of my blog. It wealthy, white male liberals - "limousine liberals" as the term goes - who are part of the new power structure and largely responsible for the double standards that continue to exist in public and media perception.
Case in point - the media referring to Rodney Glenn King as a "motorist." I DO NOT condone the beating the officers dished out to him in any way, shape or form. (I hope you read that, Mark.) That being said, he wasn't simply a motorist, either - he was initially being chased for speeding and reckless driving and he continued to fail to stop for the husband and wife police officer team who was chasing him. Other LAPD officers became involved, of course, and the rest is history as they say.
But it still doesn't change the fact that he was more than just a simple "motorist" in that situation ... yet the media continued to use that term in all reports of the incident.
I invite the Unholy Alliance (Mark, Tim, Shep, Ara and to a lesser degree, Frankie J) and anyone else to come back to discuss this and other pertinent issues raised in my blog ...
I just call them like I see them. Right now, I'm still trying to figure out why penis size was brought into the fray again. I was with you, Timmy, but then you lost me with the penis thing.
Mr. Wonderul...I actually kind of enjoyed your previous post, but I don't get this one. You say that you want to point out extreme liberal views, yet you do it in what I see as an extreme manner. The common Liberal is no more extreme than the common follower of Islam. Any group has radicals...Conservatives included.
If you don't want to be taken out of context, then maybe you shouldn't write out of context. Try being more straightforward in your writings, instead of cryptic like a comic book villain. I, for one, will hang around so that you can try to explain this one to me. If for no other reason that me wanting to know what in the hell you're thinking.
To the rest of this "Unholy Alliance" that I've been grouped with - is dealing with this guy so hard on you that you're willing to scrap something that you've been a part of for this long? You all apparently know a good amount about one another's personal lives. I would assume that you all call Rose a friend. If you can all walk away from her this easy, then it says a lot about you.
Mr. Wonderful, I'm Frankie J, and until I understand what you're trying to say...I disapprove of your message.
Mr. Wonderful,
You must be kidding, ermmh, to a lesser degree.
Continual insult is not a pertinent issue.
Its a question about your shtyle.
Which is why I've always said you're the most level-headed one of the bunch.
Well, since you obviously weren't man enough to serve in the military, I'll square you away. We wear ACUs (Army Combat Uniform) not desert camo. I'm not sure why you think I look like Howdy Doody (never got that before)...I've always thought I looked like a Soldier, and although I'm older than you, let's run a 10K and see who wins....
As to the 10K run, I have no doubt you'd defeat me, as I'm not one given to run from a fight, but rather to one.
I never said I was leaving or "boycotting" this site - though Jerry's victimization and Bill's "you can't quite me" bullshit do tend to bring out the passive aggressive (and I still think that damning mockery is the correct response to bombastic postulations). Anyway, the discussion's been much better populated and more interesting (OK, to be fair, it's always been more interesting) over at Ara's lately. And some bullshit you can only take in doses and then you have to take a break to clear your head and put it in its proper perspective.
Word missing??
You don't say?
I get it. The second Coke Zero did the trick. Caffeine helps.
Oh do feel free to post up anything I've said that you find the least bit exaggerated or self-important (I've got a whole, long blog post to pick from here). Be prepared to defend your thesis.
I'll check back at later date to see what you haven't been able to come up with.
BTW, do your own work.
You're personal belief system is nothing I need to "get", Bill. As far as you've proved anything, it's that your opinions are kah kah.
You keep suggesting that you have some argument to support your beliefs or otherwise challenge what I have to say yet you never seem to be able to manage to offer one. If you haven't got an argument to back up your belief why don't you just keep your yap shut and consider the possibility that it may be wrong. Otherwise, you just look like a pissed-off dope.
Talk about lack of self-awareness.
