9/4     R Rep calls Obama "uppity"
        http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/westmoreland-calls-obama-uppity-2008-09-04.html
        \_ Let me spell it out for you.
           U P P I T Y N E G R O.  there.  happy?
        \_ "they're a member of an elitist-class individual that thinks that
           they're uppity," Does that even make sense to anyone here?  It's
           a grammatical mishmash.
           \_ "Elitist" is code for "uppity" in this election.  This rep
              is just letting the veil slip a little.  Note that he
              repeated "uppity" again when asked to clarify.
              \_ So what was it code for in the last election?
                 \_ Catholic.
              \_ That doesn't really answer the question
                 A) He's a member of an individual?
                 B) He thinks he's uppity?  Does it make sense for someone to
                    think they are uppity?
                 Actually, saying elitist means uppity makes even less sense,
                 then he's part of an uppity class that thinks he's uppity.
              \_ Meh, that's just the kind of think the race obsessed say when
                 they can't find any actual racism.
                 \_ Meh, that's just the sort of thing white people say when
                    they don't want to admit their own racism.
                    \_ Haha. Keep chasing your tail.

Lynn Westmoreland used the racially-tinged term "uppity" to describe Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama Thursday. Westmoreland was discussing vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin's speech with reporters outside the House chamber and was asked to compare her with Michelle Obama. "Just from what little I've seen of her and Mr Obama, Sen. Obama, they're a member of an elitist-class individual that thinks that they're uppity," Westmoreland said. Asked to clarify that he used the word "uppity," Westmoreland said, "Uppity, yeah." Other Democrats have charged that the Republican campaign to paint the Illinois senator as an "elitist" is racially charged, and accused them of using code words for "uppity" without using the word itself. The Obama campaign, asked about the quote, did not note any racial context. Westmoreland should be careful throwing stones from his candidate's eight glass houses," said Obama spokesman Tommy Vietor. Campaigning against the first black major-party nominee has already created some problems for Republicans. Steve King (R-Iowa) said that Obama's middle name - Hussein - is relevant to the public discourse surrounding his candidacy, saying in March that if Obama were elected, "Then the radical Islamists, the al Qaeda, the radical Islamists and their supporters, will be dancing in the streets in greater numbers than they did on Sept. Geoff Davis said of Obama: "I'm going to tell you something: That boy's finger does not need to be on the button. He could not make a decision in that simulation that related to a nuclear threat to this country." Davis sent a letter of apology to Obama in which he described his remark as a "poor choice of words." Westmoreland originally supported former Massachusetts Gov. He now supports McCain, but missed an August fundraiser for the nominee because he was vacationing with his family.
