...Anyone else here embarrassed to be a white male? Or was Brennan just signaling how 'woke' he is to the women on the set, in case they thought otherwise due to his age. I know one woman in particular absolutely loved the comment, in fact she burst into joyous laughter when hearing it.


I agree with him - I am embarrassed he represents a white man - and I'm not Caucasian.

Sign of the times that liberals have come to have such a high opinion of the CIA - I guess we can see why...
Not a liberal.
Nicolle Wallace is a Republican who was one of the Communications Directors during the G.W. Bush admin. and was on his campaign staff as well as John McCain's staff in 2008.

With the recent sexual harassment allegations against another older high profile white male (Mario C.)and all the political negativity from the older white male Republicans, and all the older white male terrorists that stormed the capitol.

I think we know what he was meaning.

He’s been putting out nothing but political negativity himself - and in light of what Governor Cuomo did to the nursing homes in his state, hitting on a few female aides seems quite trivial.

That's okay, according to my husband white males in this country are increasingly embarrassed that he is still self-identifying as a white male...

You know, he doesn’t have to identify as white male if doesn’t want to. Perhaps if he would identify as a paraplegic black lesbian he wouldn’t be so embarrassed...
He could just identify as a leftist and be done with it all.

The neocons who directed the Bush administration’s foreign policy are very much leftists. If you take a look at their intellectual roots, you’ll see that...
Whoever...... I just know all the leaks have vanished in this administration and it is quite possible people like Brennan were full of pinholes themselves.

As a white male, I’m embarrassed by white males like Brennan. Cultural Marxism is a political sickness that only seems to afflict white people.

I don't see why I should be embarrassed because other white males have been racists, criminals, or stupid.

Now, if only white males were racist, criminal or stupid, then I'd be concerned. In America, white male privilege has been a thing for a very long time. Used to be, it was even backed up by law. Still is, here and there.

The real source of friction is that it's going away. And some folks just can't stand it. Sometimes to the degree that even mentioning the fact causes conniptions.

I like my white privileges. I'm not giving them up without a fight.
