Bingo! Woody's problem is his white guilt. It's tormented him all his life since he was born white.
Hey woodie, get over it.
To help you and others plagued with 'white guilt', Dr. Walter Williams, the distinguished black economist at George Mason University has made available his 'Proclamation of Amnesty and Pardon' to guys like woodie. I've got mine, woodie, and you can get yours too. Get it online. It comes with border scrolled embellishments, suitable for framing. Hang it on your wall, woodie, and look at it whenever white guilt rears it's ugly head.
Here's the text.
Proclamation of Amnesty and Pardon Granted to
All Persons of European Descent
Whereas, Europeans kept my forebears in bondage some three centuries toiling without pay,
Whereas, Europeans ignored the human rights pledges of the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution,
Whereas, the Emancipation Proclamation, the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendments meant little more than empty words,
Therefore, Americans of European ancestry are guilty of great crimes against my ancestors and their progeny.
But, in the recognition Europeans themselves have been victims of various and sundry human rights violations to wit: the Norman Conquest, the Irish Potato Famine, Decline of the Hapsburg Dynasty, Napoleonic and Czarist adventurism, and gratuitous insults and speculations about the intelligence of Europeans of Polish descent,
I, Walter E. Williams, do declare full and general amnesty and pardon to all persons of European ancestry, for both their own grievances, and those of their forebears, against my people.
Therefore, from this day forward Americans of European ancestry can stand straight and proud knowing they are without guilt and thus obliged not to act like damn fools in their relationships with Americans of African ancestry.
Walter E. Williams, Gracious and Generous Grantor
