"Help, help, I'm being repressed"

And not in the way you typically think when it comes to Lindsey Graham:

“Rick Perry is not a racist,” Graham said, saying the Texas governor is the victim of an “intimidation” campaign. “You know if you’re a southern white guy, it is part of your life,” Graham complained.

Yes, pity the poor "Southern White Guy", who has been more set upon in history, amongst at least white men of the South, than the Southern White Male? Just ask them.
