RUSH LIMBAUGH: "You know, folks, I have to tell you something. This, this white guilt, it's time for all this white guilt to end....White guilt is doing nothing for anybody, and white guilt is not solving anything. And besides that, a little history lesson for you. If any race of people should not have guilt about slavery, it's Caucasians. The white race has probably had fewer slaves and for a briefer period of time than any other in the history of the world.
...They're talking about America and slavery. And that can't be denied; it happened. But, compared to the kind of slavery that still exists in the rest of the world and has existed, by no means was it anywhere near the worst. The Chinese, the Arabs, black Africans...We're pikers compared to the rest of humanity throughout human history.
...no other race has ever fought a war for the purpose of ending slavery, which we did... And yet white guilt is still one of the dominating factors in American politics. It's exploited, it's played upon, it is promoted, used, and it's unnecessary."

- Liberals misuse history to further their own pro-welfare, pro-affirmative action agendas by playing on white guilt
- The white race is less guilty of slavery than the majority of the world
- African Americans do not need these reparations to be successful
*BUT notice the slight misrepresentation of history. Although he makes a valid point, he bends the truth to support his argument. All politicians are guilty of this, not just liberals.
