If you listen to the Neo Yankees on Free Republic no white poeple built or worked in the ante bellum south. Blacks did all the work, built every house, road, picked all crops etc. White people just layed around drinking mint julips and did nothing except operate a whip every now and then.
It's the only way liberals can look at people. It is also why they accuse others of being racist and bigoted.
Their little minds cannot grasp the reality that people of the same skin color or religion can have different values, or that people of different skin color or religions can have shared values.
The liberal view is that racial diversity must be forced by government, rather than achieved by merit and qualifications.
Mormonism has nothing to do with christianity, it is more closely related to islam if anything..
I think you are discounting the influence of the Scottish Enlightenment. That, and William Penn’s influence pretty well defines the old character of the U.S.A.
A liberal, who’s living high on solar green stimulus monies, had the nerve to sit on my couch and declare that we don’t need any more old white men as POTUS.

Yes! Only a hate filled bigoted foul mouthed lying liberal would say such things. But since they are liberal they therefore mean well and it is okay.
I doubt they are gloating because Catholics, often almost identical to Protestants in their manners and morals, are having more success these days.
Likewise, Hispanics have a lot more in common with whites than blacks. While now, 70% or so vote Democrat, that affiliation will likely drop like a rock after a generation or two of integration, just like with other immigrants.
And Mormons are somehow different from Protestants in ways other than doctrinally? Oh, yeah, there’s been a lot of pitched battles between Mormons and protestants in the last 100 years.
Sorry, CNN. WASP is not a state of being, it is a state of mind, and doing quite well, thank you.
Aren't we clever anti-WASP bigots.
Thanks Wikipedia. "Dean Obeidallah. A Palestinian American Italian comedian." Yes indeed!
I suppose this man might raise various persons blood pressure over this statement. Which is what he intended to do. I retained my calm on this lovely near fall morning up in Great Lakes country and marvelled at the truth of Orwell. Orwell held that persons can be so suborned, that they can be faced with outrage and feel a disconnect. Yes, if a so-called Wasp who had prominence, trumpeted the demise of Obama rule shortly, he would be flayed mercilessly for saying "Black is over", this in refering to November next; he would be flayed mercilessly. "Racist" would be the least of the epithets applied.
American humourist Kin Hubbard, (1868-1930) once said "It ain't no disgrace to be poor, but it might as well be." One could apply this to the so-called Wasp. "It ain't a disgrace to be white Anglo-Saxon Protestant, but it might as well be". The book "Dreams From My Father" points to this kind of attitude. Yet some people ignore it.
Just Damn.

Maybe the post-Christian WASPs need to be called WASLs (pronounced “wazzles”)—White Anglo-Saxon Liberals.
Thanks for this post.
True and, “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them”. Amen.

I understand your point, but Mormonism does not derive from, nor does it claim to derive from, Protestant beliefs. It takes a vastly different route, deriving from its own special set of revelations via the Book of Mormon and other non-Biblical Scriptures.
Nor was Stanley Ann Dunham’s family Protestant. Her parents were skeptics, and she called herself a secular humanist.
