What a hateful fraud.
Georgia republican Westmoreland calls Obama 'uppity'.

how about this one?
"At an April 12 event in his district, Kentucky Rep. Geoff Davis (R) 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.”"
umm... "that boy."
everyone remember how the MSM was ALL over geoff davis for that remark?
everyone? anyone? hello?? no??
nope not a bit of racism there... but Obama is sexist... yup.

Stocks plummet after retail, unemployment data
By MADLEN READ, AP Business Writer 11 minutes ago
Wall Street has ended a dismal day with a huge decline. The Dow Jones industrials are down nearly 350 points after retailers and the Labor Department added to investors' mounting economic worries and prompted a wave of selling.
Retailers say shoppers curtailed spending last month due to higher gas and food prices. Meanwhile, the Labor Department says new applications for unemployment insurance last week rose by 15,000 from the previous week.
The troubling news arrived ahead of Friday's August jobs report from the Labor Department.
At the close of trading, the Dow is down about 345 points at the 11,187 level, according to preliminary calculations.
i do believe that was GOPer dog whistle for all the conventioneers who hear "community organizers" and think "scary black militant mooslims"...
William Ayres - community organizer and terrorist
Therefore Obama terrorist
That is what they meant
although, he did 'lust in his heart' (the HORROR!!!).
maybe he could teach Bristol how to do that?
;-)
thank you mccain/palin! keep up the good work so Obama doesn't have to lift a finger in defense.

and he was asked if he really meant to say it and he said yes.
How's about you Westmorland, are "Klanish"?
How is this asshole doing in the polls?
"we will no longer be using the word 'uppity' when describing negros, henceforth the operative word will be 'elitist'. Negros themselves will be referred to as African Americans. The word 'boy' will no longer be used in place of the person's name. For some reason those people seem to find them offensive. The 'n' word is still out as well, unless used among other GOP members or in the context of a joke (also while among people like us)." Super-Super-Secret GOP memo 6/2/2008
Sounds like a diss to me. She didn't stop at the end of 'community organizer'. She had to twist that little dig in about having actual responsibilities. Trust me on this one saber69, I do some volunteer work in the local community and NO ONE is happy today about that little comment.
It was meant in a negative light and it was delivered in a negative light. However, the good news is that it was seen in a negative light. Maybe not to the people in the convention center of course, but to most of the rest of America, they saw through it...
can one actually be elitist AND a community organizer? I mean, if you're elitist, aren't you above helping others?
let them do it themselves... sorta like the repugnican mantra isn't it?
Here's a good one to start, from someone who works with the homeless in Cleveland.

But if you are going to call somebody elitist, you damn well better know how many homes you have, or else you come off (correctly in this case) as clueless.
