What's behind the rightwing whine that white males are the most discriminated against group in the US?

Continuing the ideas expressed in an earlier post, Why was the Reagan Campaign of White Resentment and the continuing Conservative effort to keep whites incensed while convincing mainly white men that in fact they are the most wronged, the most persecuted, the most oppressed "minority" in the U.S. been so successful?

Well, because it's partially true, in the sense that a white conservative male could be guaranteed a certain minimum lifestyle, job, and opportunities, despite gross inadequacies.

All white men needed to do was dutifully support the Plutocracy and their guard dogs in the Republican Party and a good job, decent pay, a social safety net and freedom from maltreatment from the police state would be theirs. White Privilege used to mean there was a certain floor under which no white male would be allowed to fall.

But, Capitalism cares not for national boundaries or peoples or social contracts, once the American Worker became too expensive the American Worker needed to be downsized.

Since the Reagan Revolution their Corporate Overlords have broken the contract they had with white men and now conservatives are being treated by Capitalism and the Corporate State the same way blacks, women and immigrants have always been treated; as disposable goods.

Thus, The Reagan Revolution was the Destruction of the American Dream and the reduction of the American Citizen to a Wage Slave bargaining his wages against the vastly cheaper workers Capitalism could utilize in the Third World.

White men don't like it, and have been searching for a reason why their standard of living has gone down despite working longer hours, being more productive, having to pick up extra jobs to supplement his declining earning power, while his wife also has to work not as a luxury but as a necessity.

"You work three job? Uniquely American isn't it. I mean, it's fantastic that you're doing that." - W(orst POTUS in history) 2005.

After dutifully supporting George W(orst POTUS Ever) Bush no matter what evil and awful War Crimes the Bush/Cheney Regime committed or the $10 Trillion dollars Bush stole from the American people or the lives of hundreds of thousands of Americans their warmongering cost, now Conservatives want to know what happened to the American Dream.

But, it's too late. For 35 years, Toxic Right-Wing Talk Radio, Faux News, and now the Incestuous Conservative Internet Bubble has been making sure Conservatives were suitably brain-washed to be outraged at Steak-Eatin' Young Bucks, Welfare Queens, the Lucky Poor, Teachers, Women, Gays and Illegal Immigrants instead of America's True Enemy, the Plutocracy.

"The first step is, we're going to deal with collective bargaining for all public employee unions, because you use divide and conquer.” - Wisconsin Governor and Presidential hopeful Scott Walker.

Thus, despite stated Republican Goals of stealing Social Security, "phasing out" Medicare, reducing Workers' Rights, eliminating welfare for the poor while increasing it for Corporations, and turning every American into a 3 Jobs-a-Day Wage Slave, conservatives still support Republicans because conservatives suffer from battered spousal syndrome and they can't break free of their abusive Right-Wing Masters, who ensure they vote to enslave themselves by saying,

"I don't want to make blaaack peoples lives better by giving them somebody else's money," Rick Santorum in Iowa 2012.

Now, a sizable portion of the right-wing voting base are absolute racists who hate people of color, and these are the ones fueling Donald Trump's "popularity". Trump, an absolute joke of a human being, is leading by saying what every Republican, since Nixon crafted the phrase Law & Order, has been saying just without the code words and dog whistles.

This worries Reince Priebus, the RNC, the Koch Brothers and the Plutocracy because appealing to the racist vote is something they would rather do behind closed doors, similar to Mitt Romney's infamous 47% Speech.

So, I hope Hillary Clinton (or whomever wins the Democratic Nomination) does not make the mistake of tacking towards the Right in order to slice of a portion of the Fragile White Abused Conservative Whiner vote. It's a losing formula. Democrats need to keep the focus on what they stand for, point out Republicans actually hate the angry white man they've been cultivating for decades, and demonstrate that the Reason White America feels it's lost the American Dream is because the Republican Party has stolen it.

Jesus and Santa Claus are White Men! It's a Verifible Fact

Faux News anchor babe, Megyn Kelly, who before this Xmas was most famous for being ordered by Karl Rove to get up off her tush and walk her sweet sweet self down to the vote tabulating area, where Men would tell her that Nope Mitt Romney won the 2012 Presidency, has some bad news for you historians! Jesus and Santa are white males.

"And by the way for all you kids watching at home Santa just is white but this person is just arguing that maybe we should have a black santa," Megyn Kelly's opening statement against a Slate article by Aisha Harrris.

Of course, no "kids" are watching Megyn Kelly's Infotainment Show at 9pm Eastern, her spot is on to appeal to the Faux demographic old perverted white males who need constant reassurance the lord has blessed them as the masters of the universe.

During the segment, Megyn Keely even affected the I'm sharing a not so secret hands around the mouth megaphone maneuver and sly sideways glances at the camera which let the viewer know; Duh, it's a "verifiable fact" that jesus and santa are white.

"My point is, how do you just revise it in the middle of the legacy of the story and change Santa from white to black?" Megyn Kelly. 

"Yeah, I mean you can't!" Monica Crowley.

I believe these two just play the good-looking dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks Info Babes on Faux News, but short history lesson the appearance of jesus and santa have changed over time. Cultures, many of whom were forcibly converted to christianity, eventually made their new lord look like them. It was easier for the rulers and the people to have a deity who shared their aspects. Have a glance at the (surviving) Byzantine frescoes and mosiacs, the jesus and mary of those had the swarthy appearance of the people's of the Byzantium Empire. jesus didn't begin to resemble Bjorn Borg until the christians conquered and converted Northern Europe.

But, that's knowledge and that is strictly anathema to Faux News.

Ah Race... The bullshit construct of the 18th century is still plaguing us today. Race catergories come from a time when phrenology, animal magnetism and other pseudosciences were being winnowed away from actual scientific discourses.

But, Race based on external charaterisitics is especially silly today as genotyping and DNA mapping can show exactly from where one's ancestors originated. For instance, when North Dakota White Supremacist Craig Cobb learned that 1/7th of his genes are sub-saharan African.

But, unlike reading bumps on people's heads there is money and power to be gained from catergorizing and marginalizing people. And the Rich have used those Divisions to Conquer.

Republicans think 99% of Humanity is Disposable

The fight over abortion, contraception, Medicare, Social Security, Wealth Inequality can all be summed up easily:

To the Republican Party the 99% are nothing more than interchangeable parts to be used in the gears of Industry and War and to be disposed of when broken by those Monsters.

You, Mister or Miss Average American, are nothing but a fresh body to be plugged into the system. When you can't do the job anymore you are not worth anything to the Republican Party and Plutocratic Lords they serve.

This is why they don't want you educated. This is why they want women trapped in the cycle of childbirth. This is why the are constantly trying to eliminate Medicare. This is why they are always trying to take away Voting Rights. This is why the undercut and destroy Labor Unions. This is why the constantly want to steal Social Security.

The whole goal is to get as many people into the Capitalist system, train them just enough to haul trash, input data, pull a trigger or sweep and mop a floor. But, when you can't do those things anymore or can't give birth to another generation...

The Republican Party sees all humanity as nothing more than a giant pool of labor. To be used and abused when young and healthy and cast aside when old, sick or broken.

Here are just some of the evidence:

Senator Mike Lee of Utah ran in 2010 on repealing Child Labor Laws. Former Speaker of the House Newt Gringrich echoed his sentiments by declaring, "Child labor laws are truly stupid" and a plan to "get rid of unionized janitors and pay local students to take care of the school."

Education has always been a bane to Republicans because once people, especially women, are educated they overwhelming reject conservatism and Right-Wing thinking.

Lost amongst the odious Racist Limpballs repeated sexual harassment and misogynistic assaults on Sandra Fluke was he continued on other women and vented his anger on "Overeducated single white females". Educated women scare and infuriate Limbaugh because they can see through his shallow pleas to to the Patriarchy and Oppression.

Rick Santorum thought he was scoring points with conservative voters when he smugly stated,

"President Obama once said he wants everybody in America to go to college. What a snob.”

But, that was merely a play to anti-Elitism. His real fear are educated Americans. On President Obama’s efforts to boost college attendance, Santorum warned his supporters about higher education,

“because they're indoctrination mills, absolutely … The indoctrination that is going on at the university level is a harm to our country.”

Of course, attacking education as away to further the Oppression of Women hasn't been confined to merely Limpballs 20 year defamation of educated women as "Feminazis". Republicans are using the power of Government to pass laws to restrict and shame any woman who dares buck the power of the Right-Wing Patriarchy.

Multiple Republican controlled state Legislatures, have decided and passed degrading State-Sponsored Trasnvaginal Ultrasound Laws, or to be more accurate State-Enforced Slut-Shaming Rape Wand Laws. The Key Leader of this has been Virginia and Republican Governor Bob McDonnell but such "Laws" have spread to multiple states.

But, not to just limit themselves to "Ultrasound Opportunity Acts" Republicans have begun an assault on contraception and the sexual behavior of all Americans as well.

The Republican Totalitarian Assault on America doesn't just target children and women but is also focused on rolling back hard won gains for all American workers. Republicans take aim at dismantling Unions because Unions give Americans a fighting shot at earning a good, living wage with benefits instead of being held at the whims of the 1% and their cut-throat Capitalism.

The soon to be recalled Governor of Wisconsin Scott Walker never mentioned Unions prior to being elected but after winning struck right at Unions (while sparring others in an attempt to divide and conquer) while sneaking State funds and State-controlled utilities to the Koch Brothers who are bankrolling him.

Several other Republican Governors Mitch Daniels of Indiana, Paul LePage of Maine, John Kasich of Ohio and Rick Snyder of Michigan joined the Crusade and created budgets which placed the burden of Government onto the backs of working and middle class Americans while stripping Unions of Rights all in an effort to reduce the standard of living for Americans and make them wage slaves to Corporate Monsters.

Besides gutting and dismantling Unions, Republicans work to reduce the standard of living of 99% of Americans by their constant restructuring of the Tax Code. Republicans tinkering isn't designed to make it easier or more comprehensible for the 99% but, to make it byzantine and laden with special tax cheats for the 1%.

The elimination of Security and Exchange Tax and deregulation of Wall Street lead to the George W(orst President Ever) Bush Recession, but the dropping of the Capital Gains/Deferred Compensation tax rate to 15% allowed the Richest Americans to accelerate their control over the Wealth of the Nation. So much so, that in 2010 93 percent of income gains went to the top 1 percent.

But, even though Mitt Romney, Nominee of the 1%, paid a tax rate of 13.9% on his income of $21.6 Million dollars, Illinois Congressman Joe Walsh and Newt Gingrich (again) think that rate is too high. They both want Capital Gains taxes to be ZERO and for Mitt and all the Vulture Capitalist to take home all the money they make on firing Americans and closing American factories.

Additonally, the entire deabte over Obama Healthcare Insurance Reform centered around Republicans opposition to letting Americans enjoy a modicum of decent healthcare in their old age. Congressman Paul Ryan when he's not out being wined and dined by Billionaire Hedge Fund Vultures, created a program he calls New Medicare, the goal of which is the destruction of Medicare and it's replacement by a system of capped and limited payouts for medical coverage.

Even though Social Security, as it is currently structured, will be able to pay out until 2037 and is not causing the deficits, Republicans have been claiming for 70 years it's on the verge of bankruptcy. Their dire predictions, like those of Armageddon is at Hand Preachers, all fail but that doesn't stop them from repeating them at every opportunity.

Back in 2010, Tennessee Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn ominously declared, "My colleagues celebrate this day as being like the day when Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid were passed. They forget that today those programs are insolvent and will likely crush our children under their debt"

Texas Governor Rick Perry, who never met a bribe he didn't like, declared Social Security is "a Ponzi scheme".

The only scheme going on involving Social Security is the Republican Plan to steal those funds and funnel them into Wall Street, where the 1% can apply the Free Market to them and they'll vanish into the Plutocrats off-shore bank accounts.

I could go on like this and highlight Indiana Congressman Rick Morris violently stupid, arrogantly uninformed, insulting attack on the Girl Scouts of America when he wrote a memo to his friends in the 112th Congress,

"I did a small amount of web-based research, and what I found is disturbing. The Girl Scouts of America and their worldwide partner, World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS), have entered into a close strategic affiliation with Planned Parenthood. You will not find evidence of this on the GSA/WAGGGS website—in fact, the websites of these two organizations explicitly deny funding Planned Parenthood."

This is your Republican Party America. You may think these are just crazies infecting the Party but, it isn't it's part of their goal of reducing the American People to the Status of third-world Wage Slaves, while the Republicans act as the Guard Dogs and Protectors of the 1%.

It's not called Sharia Law when Totalitarian Conservatives do it...

Republican controlled State Legislatures along with Republicans Peter King, Steve King, Roy Blunt, Mitch McConnell in the House and Senate and most of the stinking trash known as Right-Wingers were so frightened of Sharia Law being adopted in the US they held mulitiple tribunals and crafted legislation in over 20 states designed to make Sharia Law's adoption illegal.

Now we know why the Teahaddists were scared of a Sharia Law being forced upon the American people. The Totalitarian Conservative Christians were planning on forcing their silly religious precepts and Dominionist dogmas upon all of us as soon as they got the power.

The Republican Scum in the Federal Government are trying to force legislation through to establish Christian Fascist Religious control upon all Americas using Healthcare as their vehicle of conversion. Republican fanatic Roy Blunt proposed a "Religious Freedom" Rider onto a Transportation bill in the Senate.

Of course, the rider has nothing to do with a Transportation Bill but, Republicans are shameless in pushing their bigoted Totalitarian Control onto America. The amendment contains the following language:

While PPACA provides an exemption for some religious groups that object to participation in Government health programs generally, it does not allow purchasers, plan sponsors, and other stakeholders with religious or moral objections to specific items or services to decline providing or obtaining coverage of such items or services, or allow health care providers with such objections to decline to provide them.

So, if your employer is a right-winger who, ipso facto doesn't like women, and he "morally objects" to pap smears; Boom it's no longer covered for you. Roy Blunt and the 300 Republican bureaucrats in DC believe that your employer should be able to tell you, the American citizen what kind of healthcare you receive, based on his feelings...

Mitch McConnell braved the terrible Liberal Media on Sunday to tell CBS host Bob Schieffer, "This issue will not go away until the administration simply backs down." Bob Scieffer wanted to know if McConnell supported Blunt's Rider to allow any employer the "Right" to deny any coverage because of their moral feelings. McConnell of course replied, “Yeah,” McConnell admitted. “Of course, I’d be happy to support it and intend to support it."

So in Mitch McConnell's America if you work for a Christian Scientist who doesn't believe in blood transfusions then tough shit dude he can deny covering it. If you're working for a Scientologist who believes Lithium and any other drug designed to treat depression or psychotic mental problems are not effective because of his "serious moral concerns" boom you just lost healthcare coverage for those drugs.

President Obama's defense of woman's rights to healthcare and his incredibly crafty manuever is exposing us to the True Horror of Conservatism. The Right has fully embraced Totalitarianism and Religious Dictatorship.

We are in the age of Dominionism. Wherein the Totalitarian Right and their zealous Christian Fascists have decided to regain control of the Government through Terrorism and Religion.

Conservatives assassinate Doctors, Republicans push through legislation to deny Americans medical care, Totalitarian Right-Wingers redefine rape to punish victims and abolish basic human rights.

It's because the Right sees their control slipping. As soon as this Nation starts treating American as individuals and provides them Positive Liberties and Positive Rights the Totalitarian Republicans will be in danger of losing their power and ability to defend the 1% who use these social issues to divide and conquer.

The Thinner Blue Line

173 officers were killed in line of duty in 2011. It's a sad time for those families of the Officers killed. It's also a sad time for the Image and Reputation for Police Officers and Departments.

The viscous, unconstitutional criminal oppression of OWS and the #Occupy Movement in New York, Oakland, Richmond, Albany, Boston and numerous other cities has once again put police officers into conflict with the 99%. Of course, this is precisely what the 1% want and expect. The 1% have always sought to use Police Departments and Individual Officers to fragment and divide. The Plutocracy also sees the quelling Domestic Dissent as the only legitimate Role of Police Officers.

Police Officers have once again found themselves placed in the role of Oppressor of the Poor in Service of the Rich. The Plutocracy has created an Economic and Political Model out-of-touch and unresponsive to the 99%. The Government is in service (and has been for a long time) to the Very Rich and their Multi-National Corporate Monsters.

Do you think any Police Departments are investigating BP over it's criminal negligence from the Deepwater Horizon Gulf Disaster? Do you think Detectives are investigating BP for the continual dumping of Mercury and various other toxic chemicals into Lake Michigan from their Whiting Indiana Plant? No Police Officers are tasked with keeping poor people in line.

There are other problems with Policing in America, as detailed in the Department of Justice Investigation of the Seattle Police Department, which found

"that SPD engages in a pattern or practice of using unnecessary or excessive force, in violation of the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution and Section 14141.” The DOJ Executive Summary states, "Deficiencies in SPD's training policies and oversight with regard to Use of Force contribute to the constitutional violations."

The DOJ report highlights the "few bad apple" theory,

"In any given year, a minority of Officers account for a disproportionate number of Use of Force incidents."

There are always going to be a percentage of individuals who abuse their authority. But, the System itself is at issue. Police Officers have to decide which side they are on. Is the Officer willing to be a Guardian of the Plutocracy? A truncheon wielding, pepper-spraying Bully for the 1%? Because every Police Officer should realize once the 99% are crushed, once the Middle Class is forever obliterated, once we are reduced to Wage Slaves chained irrevocably to be cogs in the machines of industry and war, Police Officers will be disposable too.

Andrew Breitbart, his Minions and Conservative Toadies slandering OWS, OccupyChi and #OccupyTogether (Updated: Of course Faux News jumps aboard)

"Shut your face hippie." ~ Clint 'Gunny Highway' Eastwood
"Hippie? Ain't been no hippies around here for centuries." ~ Mario 'Stitch Jones' Van Pebbles

For a few weeks, The #OccupyTogether Revolution had the majority of Rightwing flummoxed. Most Conservatives had no idea how to attack the movement. They did know they hated it, but they're weren't sure why or how to pigeon-hole and fix their enemy for destruction. But, now we have the Big Conservative Attack; Andrew Breitbart, Pajamasmedia, and every Major Righwing Blog are running with the OccupyRevolution are Nazis, Communists and Anti-Semites.

Here's the headline which the Rightwing Toadies to the 1% are running with;

Nazis and Communists Throw Their Support Behind Occupy Wall Street Movements

Because what better narrative to use then the Soviet Politburo and Hitler are behind holding the Wall Street Criminals to task for their crimes.

It should come as no surprise that conservatives, the kowtowing butt-kissing servants to the Rich and Powerful, would seek to minimize, degrade and attack the People. Immediately, the simple position was to rely on the Dirty Stinking Hippie mystique which the Right has been running with for almost 50 years. And of course, many simply fell back on the belief that President Kenyan Marxist Teleprompter Obama is responsible for eveyrthing wrong in the US and that the Republicans War on the Middle Class at the Behest of their Moneyed Masters has never existed.

Andrew "I'm going after education. After the Teachers and Union Organizers Next" Breitbart, the paragon of running with doctored, misleading and outright false videos, has taken on the task of slandering and smearing the OWS. His BigGovernment site has now devoted dozens of his paid minions to blog non-stop about the OccupyChi and other Occupations. His narrative is to declare the OWS in league with Anti-Semitic Neo-Nazi Groups. From Joel Pollack @ Breitbart's BigGovernment website,

Pajamas Media recorded similar, and worse, statements at Occupy LA. The main Occupy demonstration in lower Manhattan has also seen numerous, well-documented examples of explicit antisemitism. That is alarming, given the explicit anti-Jewish hatred on display at Occupy rallies across the country.

Other conservative disinformation sites, The American Spectator for example, have also taken it upon themselves to smear and slander OWS and #Occupy. It's de rigueur for the Right to throw up as many bullshit stories and as many smear jobs as possible knowing, 'All of the people will be fooled some of the time' and 'Some of the people will be fooled all of the time.'

Just as when Republicans rammed through the Iraq War and the Patriot Act, the Rightwing has fallen solidly in line declaring those who oppose the 1% are Anti-American, Anti-Semites, Communists, Socialists, Nazis, Marxists, Terrorist Appeasers, Rawr!!! Anyone who is against the systematic and rampant Wall Street crime and corruption is actually against America. It's what the Right does every time.

But, despite the worst efforts of the Breitbart and his ilk, by an overwhelming majority, the American People know that Wall Street and their wholly owned Republican Party are responsible for the economic calamity. The Top 3 causes of the Republican Depression are:

1) Investment Firms and Banks making Risky Loans and Investments,
2) American Companies not investing in creating jobs in America,
3) The Economic Policies under former President Bush, including tax cuts for the wealthiest families.

So, while we know the attacks by the Rightwing Smear Merchants shall never cease, their hatred for the Working Classes shall never be abated and their defense of their Plutocratic Lords shall never wane... We the 99% will march on.

Update:
Faux News is now solidly behind #Occupy and OWS = Nazis and Anti-Smeites.

Tim Paws the Teachers

Taking his cue from Andrew Breitbart, Tim Pawlenty, the GOP White Hope, is making sure conservatives know that those damn teachers are responsible for the economic collapse.

- Not Billions in Corporate Welfare to Oil Companies.
- Not Billions of Dollars physically lost in Iraq.
- Not anti-Free Market DoD contracts to non-American companies.
- Not Billions to Israel.
- Not Government bailouts for White Collar Wall Street Criminals.

Nope it's because,

“The rise of government unions has been like a silent coup, an inside job engineered by self-interested politicians and fueled by campaign contributions. Unionized public employees are making more money, receiving more generous benefits, and enjoying greater job security than the working families forced to pay for it with ever-higher taxes, deficits and debt.”

Yep, Tim Pawlenty goes after the struggling middle class workers. Every time a Republican blames their economic catastrophe on Public Workers, Grover Norquist strangles a cat.

The most ridiculous thing about Pawlenty's glorious decision to join the campaign is the, cough... Liberal... cough... Media fawning over him. And it reminds me of Jack London and Jack Johnson.

President Obama is very much like Heavyweight Champ Jack Johnson. And his every success is an affront to the Grand Old Racist Republicans. It's bad enough he's President but to also succeed in getting Osama Bin Laden, to arrest the Republican created economic catastrophe and pass a (admittedly flawed) Healthcare law galls them unbelievably. Unlike London, the Republicans can't merely write to Tim Pawlenty and tell him, "The White Man must be rescued."

But, that's the daily narrative; the birtherism, the over-enunciated Barack HUSSEIN Obama, the Newt Gingrich Kenyan anti-colonial* mindset comment, Jerome Corsi, Dinesh D’Souza and his, the U.S. is being ruled according to the dreams of a Luo tribesman of the 1950s, to Erick Erickson, World Net Daily, Sean Hannity, Pam Geller, Faux News, R. Limbaugh, Free Republic, and every Right Wing blog. The Right has completely given itself over to the venom of Hatred of the Other. And to them President Obama is the Other.

*- You know who else was anti-colonial, George Washington and the Founding Fathers. Seriously, the Revolution started with them wanting their rights as Englishmen, the term American was an epithet used to insult those living in the colonies.
