Those cheeky Republicans!

TheHill.com has this great nugget where Rep Westmorland calls Obama "Uppity."

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.”

Well! It sure is nice to see that the old codewords for racism are finally just being done away with. Yep! They're coming out and just saying it now!
