Glenn Beck and the Tea Party has accused president Obama for being racist because he is "waging a war towards the white culture". See here.

I am white myself and I am from a society where I did not speak to a colored person before I was twenty years old. But I am still not aware of this white culture. To my knowledge, and the statistics is backing this up, the most Christian people in the world are the colored people in the USA, the rest of the American continent and Africa. The western culture is a mix of all colors. The art of book publishing comes from China or there about. If I am to believe that president Obama is a racist, what is the white culture then ? What is supposed to be my culture ?

Please tell me who I am supposed to be because I do not have a clue.

Not exactly sure; claiming any group has a single culture is rather foolish and shallow.

I will, however, say that Glenn Bleck is a monumental w**ker and you shouldn't listen to anything he says.

Beige Power!!!

Seriously if you want to talk about culture, let's talk about US vs. UK culture.  We're mostly "white". yet distinctly different.  Glen Beck is a racist moron and gets more attention than he deserves.

Since I am able to write these lines, communicate some coherent thoughts with human beings and use a computer, does that not ring some faint alarm bells in your head/temple of knowledge ?  Wink

as near as I can tell, white culture - in a strange ironic twist - mostly consists of being intolerant and racist

haha

Beck's views are very coloured, but he referenced the wrong colour. Instead of white culture, I think he meant redneck culture.

In that case, you can then answer my question(s). What is the white culture your president has been racist against ? Please answer.

Why do I have to answer for Glenn Beck's statements? I have no idea what he's referring to. I find the term white culture stupid and collectivist. 

Is it because I'm American or because I'm white? Why do I have to speak for Glenn Beck?

Let Glenn Beck spew his bile.  You don't have to speak for him, but you embrace some of the same ideas.

You believe murder and rape are wrong so you embrace some of his views too. What does it matter?

You wouldn't want to be represented by a guy who doesn't want the mosque build near ground zero Pat. I'm sure you wouldn't want it.

Correct. He doesn't represent me. He's a war-monger. I want nothing to do with him.

I don't know. Please explain. Because when I go to a Christian church or see church services from USA on TV, I only see colored people. White culture cannot therefore mean Christianity.
