I do have something against the "Old White Guys" - Fundamental Christian Right Wing - - - well you get the idea.
Agreed. Their is no greater threat to the human species or the planet's well-being than your garden variety white, anglo-saxon, christian american male. As a demographic whole (not as individuals) they are the most self-centered, over-indulgent, self-righteous, do-nothing, willfully-ignorant, bunch of cry babies that the human race has ever seen.
They whine about "losing the country" that they ran into the dirt ever since they took it over from the WWII guys in the late 80's and early 90's.
Hell yes you're "losing the country"...the rest of us can't afford to let you have any control of anything any more. It will take us 30 years to rebuild from their disasters.
And as far as sexism go...the nearly universal discrepancies in pay across industries, occupation, positions, and corporations between men and women alike is proof positive.

I agree with you 99% of the way. The only point I dispute is this one...

The discrepancy in pay is due to women not being risk-takers like men. My ex-wife, and my current wife both should have been making more money than their male counterparts, but they refused to demand the raises, they refused to leapfrog to other jobs, they refused to make ultimatums, etc. Men make more, because men are more confident and more willing to walk away from a job if they are not appreciated with pay. I don't believe the discrepancy in pay is due to sexism, it is due to the inherent differences in the nature of men and women.
On average, women have fewer job changes than men over their career. They like to get into a comfort zone, and we all know they aren't just handing out raises voluntarily. You have to demand a raise, or be willing to go to a competitor to get it.
Well...as white, 35 yr old American male in the midwest let me set the record straight that as a demographic white people ARE racist

I don't think that blows the theory. They are just willing to accept less. Of course there are exceptions, my ex-wife is now one of the exceptions making more than her boss, and more than most people in her profession, but it wasn't always that way.
If women are not leap-frogging jobs the way men are, then it makes sense their starting wages would be lower, because they are not out there shopping their wares and looking for the highest bidder.

Welcome to the new America Glenn, white Christian men are no longer the majority voter. Blaming "God" and whining makes you look as pathetic as you actually are.

That sounds like a personal problem to me, pal.

Glenn Beck whines that, "God sucks" after Obama loss., page 1
Huh??
After a few comments I couldn't go on. It's the same ole, same ole. In my opinion it's the same as whining. Anyways....
I'm sure the title has been corrected in the comments...some-where.
