the conservative Republicans are in a quandary about their party’s nod to a quasi-liberal maverick, John McCain.

Effectively dismisses the rest of the Repulican base. Easy to tell where this is heading.

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.

So we have an issue with gays, women and surprisingly 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.

Nice inclusionary statement unless you are gay, a women, black or an Evangelical Christian.

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. In many cases, he is an independent businessman and employs several people. He pays more than his share of taxes and works hard.

Sounds like he has the same goal as the special interest groups that he has a problem with. What's up with that.

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.

Really? Sure sounds like he feels like a victim to me and I know plenty of gays, women, christians that will pick up the tab. Gotta admit the Press 1 for English thing irritates me as well. See we do have common ground.

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.

That's an unsupported vague and frankly stupid position.

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.

Good for him. You are aware that since the time they were allowed to serve that blacks in this country have generally represented a larger percentage of the military compared to the percentage of the population that they represent. Maybe AWM should do his fair share.

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, often as a police officer, a National Guard soldier or a volunteer firefighter.

So there are no metros or gays who got out? There are no metro or gay cops, soldiers, firefighters? Please, what friggin planet does AWM live on. He should get his head out of the sand or his a55 and get to know his neighbor better.

and he might have Cherokee, Mexican, or Puerto Rican mixed in, but he considers himself a white American.

I have no respect for those that want to deny their heritage. AWM can keep them.

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.

So what? I know gays, blacks, women that do the same. AWM does not have a monopoly on it.

He knows that his wife is more emotional than rational, and he guides the family in a rational manner.

I'd like to see him say that when his wife is within earshot.

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.

Cetain backgrounds? Don't be a friggin wuss AWM. Say what you mean, I though you were a mans man? So translation, I have no issue with anyone as long as they act in a manner that AWM deems socially acceptable. Nice.

This is a disgusting very thinly veiled hate piece. It denigrates everyone except for maybe Ted Nugent.

Waste of bandwidth.
