  • What a douche bag... Their your words, at least back them up.

    I'm guessing the right will slam Couric for her "gotcha media", when all she did was ask him what he meant.

    he should have just said "sorry adrian, i am not going to answer that question" instead of allowing himself to look like such a fool. it is much more difficult when things are unscripted....

    WOW that was interesting, as loud and proud as he was on his show he sure wasn't right there trying to answer a simple question that he created. Instead he made himself look like a fool when he didn't have to amazing. I wonder if anybody on the center/right or left can answer what is the *White Culture*? I certainly don't know.

    You've seen Undercover Brotha right? We like mayonnaise, awkward singing, and duck boots. Obama must hate all of those things.

    I understand things like 'Irish Pride'... and 'Italian Pride'... and all that. But, is there one White Culture? Wouldn't that have to cover all whites... including Irish, Italians, Jews, Russians, Spaniards, Germans, Brits, French, etc...?
    I guess that's why people have a problem with that whole, 'White Pride' thing... do the White Power people support the White Jews? The White Europeans?
    What is the culture, anyway?

    Wow, look at him dance.

    My impression is that he is really a racist, but don't want to say it out loud. From this clip it looks like it.

    ..Or he has just stumbled across "White culture", thought it sounded nice and used it, while having no clue what it is.

    So, he's either a racist or a moron. I wonder which it'll be...

    More journalists should ask questions like this to talking heads and politicians. What they really MEAN when it comes down to it, beyond yelling the same talking points unexplained all the time. You have a talking point, you should be able to elaborate a little on it. Otherwise, just shut up.

    White culture is not allowed to be discussed. That is why he did not fall into the trap. Anything he may have said would be spined into he being a racist. Just like not answering you still call him a racist.

    Anytime a white person wants to say the word white they are accused as being racist.

    Why is it okay to have Negro collage fund...Miss Black America....Hispanic day of prayer.Why not White college of America...Why not Miss White America?
    I think you all know why.
    It's okay to have Black , Hispanic, Muslim , culture, but god for bid there is a white culture!!!

    Why is it okay for school kids to take scripture from the bible saying its Obamas thoughts but you can not quote scripture in its true content?

    what on earth are you on about? you do realize that glenn beck was the one who actually used the term 'white culture' don't you?
  • I hear that point of view all the time from my family and (some) friends. I guess I understand it somewhat.

    In the US most white people don't really know their ancestry or if they do it is "german, swedish, irish, french, italian, and greek" descent. So they don't really have a sense of "culture" for any of those because they don't really have a dominant ancestry from any certain place. So, what sense of "culture" should a white American have? None? Surely not... so then what could that culture be called? I don't know the answer to that question... but I think that *MIGHT* be the point Glenn Beck is trying to make. But then again... it is fairly simple (and not racist) as I stated it... why didn't he say it like that???

    You are right about white ancestry. We know many Hispanics, so called African Americans, or any other race have mixed blood also. Example Obama he is not a black man...... but he is a mix of black and white..Why does he choose to call himself a black man? could it be the advantages it will or has lent to him... He could have been such a good role model to show how we are all mixed. (most all) and to show we should not judge people by there skin color....or claim because we are black. Hispanic or any other color than white we deserve more rights than anyone else. But people use the race card any chance they get because it does give them advantages over whites.
    Personally I stopped filling out my race on forms years ago. I think it should be removed from all forms!

    So even if whites tried to claim a culture and it had the word white in it these people would be called racist. I wonder what would be said if someone proclaimed them self as a Proud White American Woman or Man?

    are you serious...?

    Have you seen President Obama...? I wonder what would happen if he came across a "Proud White American" and told them he was white...I could only guess the results of that conversation...
