white privilege is the
only thing that could possibly allow someone to become
president when he has voted with George W. Bush 90 percent
of the time, even as unemployment is skyrocketing, people
are losing their homes, inflation is rising, and the U.S. is
increasingly isolated from world opinion, just because white
voters aren''t sure about that whole "change"
thing. Ya know, it''s just too vague and ill-defined,
unlike, say, four more years of the same, which is very
concrete and certain.White privilege is, in short, the
problem.

so much hate. People question whether a black man can be president. However, if you have cancer, and your doctor happens to be black, Indian, Pakistani, or whatever, you are putting your life in their hands. Why then, are people so hate filled, bigoted and moronic when it comes to electing a truly SMART person to be president?? Go figure! Trailer Trash rules this country.

I have no doubt the DEMOCRAT PARTY is hacking our economy to elect BARRACK OSAMA. They are capable of anything to achieve their political goals.

Posted by I_Love_Sarah,

Well you are wrong. I have no doubt that it is the GOP that is destroying our economy and using false claims to keep themselves in office.

You know that I am right so give it up!

Sorry, but that bill passed with total bi-partisan support.

Don''t know why you keep posting this...but I guess you don''t think people every read anything.

In fact, we are NOW having to bail out all that historical number of people William Jefferson Clinton put into homes...because NONE of them could afford them.

Its you who pull posts out of your ****hole. Just follow the events and you"ll realize that the DEMONCRAT PARTY is behind the Wall Street crisis and the DEMONCRAT CONGRESS forced the high prices of fuel so the people get angry and vote against McCain. I know where the evil is: in the DEMONCRAT PARTY and in the Sen. kennedy school of brainwashing.

White privilege is when you can get pregnant
at seventeen like Bristol Palin and everyone is quick to
insist that your life and that of your family is a personal
matter, and that no one has a right to judge you or your
parents, because "every family has challenges,"
even as black and Latino families with similar
"challenges" are regularly typified as
irresponsible, pathological and arbiters of social decay.

White privilege is when you can call yourself a
"***'' redneck," like Bristol Palin''s
boyfriend does, and talk about how if anyone messes with
you, you''ll "kick their ***'' ***," and
talk about how you like to "shoot ***" for fun,
and still be viewed as a responsible, all-American boy (and
a great son-in-law to be) rather than a thug.White privilege
is when you can attend four different colleges in six years
like Sarah Palin did (one of which you basically failed out
of, then returned to after making up some coursework at a
community college), and no one questions your intelligence
or commitment to achievement, whereas a person of color who
did this would be viewed as unfit for college, and probably
someone who only got in in the first place because of
affirmative action.

Thank you for your posts, which are obviously well-researched. Unfortunately, the McCain supporters posting here this morning do not seem to be interested in facts.

White privilege is when you can claim
that being mayor of a town smaller than most medium-sized
colleges, and then Governor of a state with about the same
number of people as the lower fifth of the island of
Manhattan, makes you ready to potentially be president, and
people don''t all **** on themselves with laughter, while
being a black U.S. Senator, two-term state Senator, and
constitutional law scholar, means you''re
"untested.

Community organizers have a long history. Hitler''s brown shirts, the KKK, Mao''s ''Red Guard'', the Crips, the Bloods, to name a few.
