For those of you who have never heard of this guy, he is a whitey-hating, white person by the name of TIM WISE, who is suffering from TERMINAL WHITE-GUILT SYNDROME.

FROM HIS WIKI: His memoir, White Like Me: Reflections on Race From a Privileged Son, is taught at hundreds of colleges and high schools across the nation. His scholarly book, Affirmative Action: Racial Preference in Black and White, (Routledge: 2005) has received praise from academics and is also taught in dozens of educational institutions.

Wise argues that racism in the United States is institutionalized, due to past overt racism, and the ongoing effects of that past racism, along with current-day discrimination. Although he contends that personal, overt bias is less common than in the past (or at least less likely to be openly articulated), Wise argues that institutions have been set up to privilege those who are white, and that subtle, impersonal, and even facially race-neutral policies contribute to racism and racial inequality today.

I've seen a LOT of Racist screeds from Democrats lately, but THIS ONE takes the cake!

Check me if I’m wrong, but Bristol Palin has encountered a bit of criticism. This is one of those phony double-standards. Liberals feel free to criticize Bristol and defend welfare-moms. Why not write about that?

The problem has always been black and Hispanic racism. Fueled and excused, dumbed down and condoned by people like him. The only entitlement in this country is one of black or Hispanic racism without consequences. Hear it all day long on the streets of NYC.

People like this are running scared because they know they can’t win this one. They basically run everything down that doesn’t go along with their thinking. Not worth listening to. This is typical ranting of the communist party. When will we run the communists out of this country?

B. Hussein a “constitutional law scholar”?

I think not.

I know more about the Constitution than he does... but then again, I’VE read it a couple times.

...no one questions your patriotism or that of your family, while if you're black and your spouse merely fails to come to a 9/11 memorial so she can be home with her kids on the first day of school, people immediately think she’s being disrespectful.

My understanding is that school for the Obama children began of Monday of last week (Barack Obama escorted his daughters to school in a five SUV motorcade). Mrs. Obama claims she needed to stay home during the first "week" of school, but then spent at least Wednesday (and Wednesday night) campaigning. She then chose not to attend the memorial on Thursday. So spare me the "she stayed home with her kids" nonsense. It looks like the bottomline is that she ranks campaign events as more important than a 9/11 memorial.

Is Bristol Palin going on welfare, or is she marrying the father of her child? That’s a huge difference.

The reason that white gun enthusiasts are viewed with fear has to do with relative crime rates among the races. Even Jesse Jackson admitted being more scared of young black men than young white men.

Sarah Palin struggled through college without anyone chasing her around offering her scholarships and admissions to fancy schools that she clearly hadn’t earned. Obama got his education because of “black privilege,” commonly called “affirmative action.”

What Sarah Palin has accomplished, she has accomplished on her own.

If anyone has been consistently privileged because of the color of his skin, it is Obama, and his nasty wife. And yet they still hate America, and are still filled with resentment.

White privilege is being forced to endure ridicule for realizing the American dream via the fruit of your own labors.

White privilege is being turned down for a job you are qualified for, in favor of someone who is not as well qualified, in order to create a racially “balanced” utopia.

Tim Wise is a punk who gets rich on the speaking tour going to colleges and making money off of leftist white guilt.

What Tim Wise calls white privilege is actually white accomplishment. Whites created a prosperous civilization, and then brought and/or allowed in people who have never created such a civilization. This automatically raised the standard of living of those people, far above any standard in their own lands. But when they fail to reach the same economic and power level as whites, nitwits like Wise blame it on white people.

I guess we can also include in white privilege the Author’s privilege of referring to the Palin family as White when Sarah Palin’s husband is not white but native Alaksan.

Ooops.

There you go again disrespecting indigenous cultures. I guess we will just have to dismiss you as a neo-colonialist fraud.

White privilege is when you can get pregnant at seventeen like Bristol Palin and ...don't abort the baby.

Honestly, why doesn't the author just come out and say he hearts Obama?

while being a black U.S. Senator, two-term state Senator, and constitutional law scholar, means you’re "untested."

Obama's a "constitutional law scholar"? Yeah, and I'm the pope of Chilitown.

Funny. It was white people, like Obama’s grandparents, that were always there for Obama when the black people in his life ran away.

It wasn’t black people who gave him a scholarship to one of the finest prepschools in Hawaii. Was it black people that let him attend one of the finest law schools on Earth at Harvard, even though his grades didn’t warrant it?

“White Privilege” = a negative racial stereotype, something liberals keep telling us that they’re against.

“Journalistic douchebag” = some a$$ that slams a teenage girl who can’t defend herself. They’d never write something like this about Muslims....

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...

I'm sure this pathetic parasite felt the same way when Clinton ran from AK...

The writer should move to South Africa - they did away with “White privilege” as he defines it and now the country is prosperous and peaceful.
