Robert Byrd was shocked I hear.

And thus the White Liberal dream of being considered honorary minorities is realized:

The text above reads:

Barack Obama supporter John Douglas poses in the living room of his Villa Rica, Ga., home, Thursday, July 17, 2008. While overall interest in the presidential campaign has swelled since last fall, backers of Barack Obama are more fired up and express more loyalty to their candidate than McCain’s do, a poll by The Associated Press and Yahoo News showed Friday.

In addition, individual groups backing Obama — African-Americans, Democrats and liberals — are more enthusiastic than whites, Republicans and conservatives, who are more aligned with McCain, the GOP senator from Arizona.

I know it was just counter-pointing lists but this sort of Freudian typo reveals the truth about White Liberals and the New Left. Self-loathing, prideless and offensively eager to co-opt other people’s ethnic identity and thus their “struggle” which they need to claim victim status, no group is easer for reporters to pander to than the classless hipsters of the Left.

You and I both know there is more than one White Liberal who thinks of him or her self as a righteous White person standing side by side with the minorities who need their leadership (they couldn’t possibly lead themselves) and dreams of the day of turning lose they’re new black friends at their high school reunion, to scare the people who gave them wedgies.

It was White Liberals who called me a race traitor, made obscene anti-Asian jokes about Michelle Malkin and are responsible for the deaths of countless Black Americans at the hands of racist Latinos. But since they’re no really White, I guess that’s alright.
