It is starting. The forces of hate and fear are amassing to try to turn this election into another Republican distortion of reality.
US Congressman Lynn Westmoreland of the Third Congressional District of Georgia has publicly called Barack and Michelle Obama “uppity”.
Westmoreland, age 58, born and raised in central Georgia, is now incredibly denying that this word has any racial connotations.
Nonsense! People from this generation (I am one) know that the word “uppity” is routinely followed by the word “nigger” (please excuse me), and means a darkie who is reaching out of his proper, low station. A guy like Congressman Westmoreland who was raised in a mill town in Georgia during the 50’s and 60’s certainly knows it.
Congressman Westmoreland is announcing that it’s open season for racism.
Make no mistake, if they come against the blacks, they will come against the gays, the Latinos, and anybody else they view as offending the eye.
