Angry White Men!!!! (votes, wages, Mexican, thought)

[LibertyandJusticeforAll]

There is a great amount of interest in this year’s presidential elections, as everybody seems to recognize that our next president has to be a lot better than George Bush. The Democrats are riding high with two groundbreaking candidates — a woman and an African-American — while the conservative Republicans are stuck with their party’s nod to a quasi-liberal maverick, John McCain.
Each candidate is carefully pandering to a smorgasbord of special-interest groups, ranging from gay, lesbian and transgender people to children of illegal immigrants to working mothers to evangelical Christians.
There is one group no one has recognized, and it is the group that will decide the election: the Angry White Man. The Angry White Man comes from all economic backgrounds, from dirt-poor to filthy rich. He represents all geographic areas in America, from urban sophisticate to rural redneck, deep South to mountain West, left Coast to Eastern Seaboard.
His common traits are that he isn’t looking for anything from anyone — just the promise to be able to make his own way on a level playing field. He pays more than his share of taxes and works hard. He feels the government should do less and tax less.
The victimhood syndrome buzzwords — “disenfranchised,” “marginalized” and “voiceless” — don’t resonate with him. “Press ‘one’ for English” is a curse-word to him. He’s used to picking up the tab, whether it’s the company Christmas party, three sets of braces, three college educations or a beautiful wedding.
He believes the Constitution is to be interpreted literally, not as a “living document” open to the whims and vagaries of a panel of judges who have never worked an honest day in their lives.
The Angry White Man owns firearms, and he’s willing to pick up a gun to defend his home and his country. He is willing to lay down his life to defend the freedom and safety of others, and the thought of killing someone who needs killing really doesn’t bother him.
The Angry White Man is not a metrosexual, a homosexual or a victim. Nobody like him drowned in Hurricane Katrina — he got his people together and got the hell out, then went back in to rescue those too helpless and stupid to help themselves.
His last name and religion don’t matter. His background might be Italian, English, Polish, German, Slavic, Irish, or Russian, and he might have Cherokee, Mexican, or Puerto Rican mixed in, but he considers himself a white American.
He’s a man’s man, the kind of guy who likes to play poker, watch football, hunt white-tailed deer, call turkeys, play golf, spend a few bucks at a strip club once in a blue moon, change his own oil and build things. He coaches baseball, soccer and football teams and doesn’t ask for a penny. 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.
Women either love him or hate him, but they know he’s a man, not a dishrag. If they’re looking for someone to walk all over, they’ve got the wrong guy. He stands up straight, opens doors for women and says “Yes, sir” and “No, ma’am.”
He might be a Republican and he might be a Democrat; he might be a Libertarian or a Green. He knows that his wife is more emotional than rational, and he guides the family in a rational manner.
He’s NOT a racist, but he is annoyed and disappointed when people of certain backgrounds exhibit behavior that typifies the worst stereotypes of their race. He’s willing to give everybody a fair chance if they work hard, play by the rules and learn English.
Most important, the Angry White Man is pissed off. When his job site becomes flooded with illegal workers who don’t pay taxes and his wages drop like a stone, he gets righteously angry. When his job gets shipped overseas, and he has to speak to some incomprehensible idiot in India for tech support, he simmers. When Al Sharpton comes on TV, leading some rally for reparations for slavery or some such nonsense, he bites his tongue and he remembers. When a child gets charged with carrying a concealed weapon for mistakenly bringing a penknife to school, he takes note of who the local idiots are in education and law enforcement.
He also votes, and the Angry White Man loathes Hillary Clinton. Her voice reminds him of a shovel scraping a rock. He recoils at the mere sight of her on television. Her very image disgusts him, and he cannot fathom why anyone would want her as their leader. It’s not that she is a woman. It’s that she is who she is. It’s the liberal victim groups she panders to, the “poor me” attitude that she represents, her inability to give a straight answer to an honest question, his tax dollars that she wants to give to people who refuse to do anything for themselves.
There are many millions of Angry White Men and most of them will vote against Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama. If they had the chance to do it all over again would NOT have voted for George Bush the first time. Most Angry White Men will not be voting at all in disgust of McCain and the field of idiots who no longer represent them.

I'll own up to it. That kind of sounds like me. How about you? Female or dish rag?

Sounds like an interesting guy, would like to meet him sometime over a beer and a Partagas Black and suggest he lose the, "Angry", from his name. [Mod edited: inappropriate content]

You don't know much about "angry white men" if you think none of them are gay, or don't feel bitter, or refuse to place blame, or are anything but strict legal "Constructionists". In fact I'd say you don't know crap about what you are talking about.

"Filthy rich" people aren't "angry white men". At most, they get a little annoyed over finances or business not quite going as smoothly as they hoped. Rarely do they get angry. Have you ever known any remotely rich people? Or are you just guessing how they act? That's a rhetorical question so don't bother answering.

Just off the top of my head - Jesse Ventura, Jim Cramer, John Voight. I'm sure Charleton Heston still is.

Great post Liberty...but what about the Angry White Females?

Question for you though; would you consider your own wife more emotional than rational? I'm sure she wouldn't want to hear that. I would say my mother is more emotional...but I'm willing to bet that my husband thinks I'm more rational than emotional...perhaps that is a foundation of what an Angry White Female is?

[Lets agree to disagree]

This article is a crock of s***. I know black, asian an latinos that fit this description of angry white man. LOL...white men in the US angry. Yes blacks can't be angry according to him. Hypocrit.

So they get their own category, "Angry Black Man" voting bloc...

I feel sorry for these selfless, heroic angry white men. There only choices to vote for this year are a woman, a black and an old guy who is slightly less racist than they are.
