White Anglo Saxon Protestant. That term is actually fairly narrow when you think of it. In truth there are no truly great catch all white slurs, only great slurs for groups of different whites.

That was what I figured, WASP isn't equal (totally or at all? Hence my question) to "cracker".

Cracker is a more general term i guess, while WASP is a specific sub group of white people. There really isn’t any good alternatives to cracker. The only good white slurs are to specific sub groups.
