You want to know why the GOP is falling flat on its face thus far in its quest to dethrone the very beatable Barack Obama?

Arizona exemplifies why.

to be quite frank minorities should be very appreciative that WHITES ended slavery and LET them do things they are free to do today. But nowadays white guilt is letting minorities get away with all sorts of racism and nonsense.

Arizona Lawmaker Proposes 'White Appreciation Day' | News One
I understand his point. Turnabout is fair play, he knows that Whites will be marginalized when they are in the minority so why shouldn't they have an "appreciation" day?

First I'd like to know what white appreciation day will encompass since no other "racial" group has an "appreciation day".

Let's just do away with race based fanfare and celebration entirely.

It's really stupid to celebrate something you had absolutely nothing to do with anyhow.

Yay! I'm white! Yay I'm black! Yay! I'm Latino! Oh really? Did you do something special to earn that distinction or were you just born that way?

Seriously. What's to celebrate?

Who cares if white folks want a day to appreciate themselves? Give it to them. Big deal.

That doesn't fit the "divide and conquer" agenda that our government has implemented.

I have no problem with it either.

This "lawmaker" obviously doesn't have enough real work to do.

It's not a matter of "what's wrong with that?", but "is this important?". I know my answer.
