Angry White Man

I heard this article being discussed by Rush Limbaugh last week. I just received this in an email today. Here is the link:

After reading the article, I guess that describes me, except for the angry part. I am not really angry. I am just not very tolerant of whiners. I don't want to hear "What about me?" "It's not fair."

I am not a metrosexual (just ask my wife). I have coached my son's baseball and soccer teams. I love playing poker and golf. I go to work every day to make sure my family is taken care of. I just live by the Golden Rule, I try to treat people the way I want to be treated.

Don't tell me you deserve special rights because you're gay. I'm not concerned what you do behind closed doors. Don't tell me you deserve special rights because you're not a white male. No matter who you are, if you get your education and work hard, good things will happen to you. If you don't like someone telling you what to do, be your own boss. The only thing holding you back is you.

You can learn something from everyone you meet. I learn things from my 8 year old daughter and the custodial lady at work. I'm not advocating being naive, I just think life would be better if we just weren't so distrustful.
