"Don't forget Angry White Man"
My friend Jill sent this to me. It was printed last month and apparently caused quite a stir among the knuckle draggers - he was a guest on Glenn Beck and Rush read the entire column on the air (!) I'm not sure who his intended audience is. Is he addressing politicians or voters? Or just rambling, which seems most likely. He's completely delusional, IMO - here's some of the many fine qualities that he ascribes to this mythical creature, the "angry white man":
He’s the kind of guy who can put an addition on his house with a couple of friends, drill an oil well, weld a new bumper for his truck, design a factory and publish books. He can fill a train with 100,000 tons of coal and get it to the power plant on time so that you keep the lights on and never know what it took to flip that light switch.
If you want to read the whole laughable mess, feel free -

In election 2008, don't forget Angry White Man

ADDENDUM
Larry's cousin Alan, makes an excellent point:
The part that seems most delusional to me is that the AWM does not relate to the language of victimization – ironic, since the entire argument is built upon creating a sense that he has somehow been victimized and persecuted.
