It's Only Funny If They All Do It

Hat tip to EVERY SINGLE LIBERAL BLOG ON THE PLANET: The Hill talks to Lynn Westmoreland (R, GA) about the Obama family.

"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.”
Oh how I wish I could say I TOLD YOU SO! But hey, just because one Republican in Georgia uses a term that describes Nigras who don't know their place, it doesn't mean that's what they're all thinking. All we know for sure is, if a white man runs for the highest office in the land, he's a leader and if a black man does it, he's arrogant. See? It's the Obama camp that keeps dragging racism into this!

Update: From Wonkette commenter ANGRYBLAKGUY:

…here is a translation of all the Republican code words:

Elitist = Uppity
Community Organizer = The person who gets all the “Color’ds” worked up
Exotic = N%gger
Hockey Mom = White woman(e.g. Carol Brady/June Cleaver)
Country First = the other guy is a traitor
They dont know enough about him = He might be a Mooslim
Sexist = Stop asking questions already
Liberal = the bottom 95% of the income bracket
