Help A White Guy

If someone tries to rob you, do you care whether the policeman who stops him is black or white? The Department of Justice does. Using the standard of "disparate impact"--under which almost any test, no matter how carefully vetted, can be ruled illegally discriminatory if some group does not score high enough on it--DOJ has filed suit against New Jersey because of its exam for police sergeants.

A rape crisis centre surely has the right to discriminate against men when hiring its counselling staff (perhaps any staff). An African-Caribbean community centre obviously can't be compelled by law to hire a white guy like me as its director.

True, it's not representative of our demographic, but it is at least 50%. From RedState.com, we read this:

Pelosi Spends Hundreds of Thousands on Travel, Alcohol

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has squandered over $101,000 tax dollars on "in-flight services" on congressional delegations since 2008, according to new documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act by the government watchdog group Judicial Watch.

We get an occasional jab from other web sites, such as that one about "musings", and we probably deserve it. But it's nothing like the beating that the White Guy takes, and it comes from all over the political spectrum. Here are a few examples that are listed on "I Hate The Media" over at http://www.ihatethemedia.com/20-great-moments-in-liberal-bigotry

“You f*cking Jew b@stard.”
- Hillary Clinton

“Civil rights laws were not passed to protect the rights of white men and do not apply to them.”
- Mary Frances Berry, Chairwoman, US Commission on Civil Rights

I'm only going to make a short reference to it, because Sarah is obviously not a white guy. But since she is someone who many white guys "like" if you know what I mean, I will put the pointer out there:

In this quick critique of Obama's SOTU speech she makes some worthy points that illustrate that the current administration does NOT have the best interests of the White Guy in mind.

We saw this coming and we were eagerly waiting for it like a little kid waiting for Kwanzaa.

The voters in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts decided to look out for themselves, since no one else was. They voted Scott Brown into office in an attempt to catch up with the rest of the country. In doing so, they made life better for all of us.

Now that is some change that I can get behind.

I quote here from the New York Daily News:

A Brown booster in a tricorn hat stood alongside a woman whose hand-lettered sign urged a vote for "Hottie McAwesome for U.S. Senate" - a wiseguy reference to Brown's former modeling career. The woman insisted she backs him "for his views, not because he's hot."

I always found that term offensive, that is, "reverse discrimination." It seems to imply that there is a right way and a wrong way to discriminate. It is always the "wrong way" because it is bigotry and prejudice that causes it.

The party that calls itself "American Third Position" is interested in helping the white guy. It's not a so-called "white supremecist" organization. Not by a long shot.

They just want to give the white citizen the same rights and privileges that everyone else gets.

Where have I heard that before???

Take a look, and tell them we sent you!

The latest AARP (print) magazine talks about a case where a grandmother was denied reimbursement of about $10,000 for care she received, and apparently due to a paperwork mistake, the government refuses to pay. Her son has spent three months fighting this decision and the government refuses to pay.
