Lynn Westmoreland Someone Who Bigots Can Point At And Say

See, I'm no bigot, Congressman Lynn Westmorland of Georgia, now there's a bigot:

"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.”

Needless to say, if he had said this just two weeks earlier, he'd be the vice presidential nominee right now.

I guess we should be grateful that he didn't use the term n*gg*r.
