Much of the GOP base is xenophobic. This is why any illegal immmigration solution other than “round ‘em up and send ‘em back!!!!!!!!!!!!1″ is a death sentence in the GOP.

Since when has uppity been a racist term? What world are these folks in? HAHAHAHA

When? Anytime the channel of Hate & Race can twist words. BSNationalBarackChannel.

Also, I can you explain how the First Lady of the United States of America believes she’s above her station? She is the First Lady of the most powerful nation in the world after all.

It sounds like you’re late to the party again.  

Leftist media hacks are idiots and inbreds…talking about ‘dog-whistle’ terms in some sort of ‘knowing’ way.

Here’s a DOG WHISTLE for you Leftists: “Bitter Clingers.” Remember THAT term?

You moron it has always been a racist term. Pull your head out of the sand or your ass and WTF up.

You are the CEO of the hate and racism. The real funny thing is you are two stupid to know it. You just think you are right. Tell me how many people of color have you went out to dinner with in the last 12 months or had over to your house. Just tell us any person other than a white Caucasian person have you had any dealings with out side or your work environment, if you have a job????

Yoda and RAM-you can’t argue with the backwoods know nothing wisdom of WCInWI AKA Sarah Palin.

Her ignorance is often on display and today’s comment on this thread is typical of her brand of idiocy.

Its pretty obvious that her need to deflect is because she’s a racist.

Another one of the true idiots of the American Right. Incoherent sentences laced with enigma, basted in fear and fueled by stupidity.

Uppity is not a racist term. Period.

What party? An online party? HAHAHAHA

If you automatically picture a person of color, when you hear the word uppity, I contend it’s you that is the racist.  I certainly don’t. 

Don’t talk to me. That is all. :)

You know damn well if a liberal talking head EVER referred to Herb Cain as “Uppity” you and your ilk would be screaming racism from the highest mountain in sight.

For many years, at least 72 that I personally know of, you can deny it as much you wish, but that won’t make it not true.  I can tell that you are simply immature, if not the disingenous denial, the HAHAHA really gives it away.

again, you don’t know what you are talking about.  How about an example of using that word in any other context.

there you go again with the silly HAHAHA

You’re just as confused as when you thought Palin was running for president.  FOX has that way with people. 

yes, bitterly clinging to guns and religion, unfortunately true!!  I think they all went to the mall on Friday though.

I’ve referred to people as uppity before. And they weren’t Black. It’s a common term.

Specifically, I’ve said “Stop acting so uppity” as in well-mannered and perfectionist.

Stop lying. You most certainly do think of the N word when you hear “uppidity” as does everyone else that grew up in the 60′s because you heard your father and grandfather say it. You heard southern politicians say it. You are a delusional human being but everyone knows that who has seen your posts on this site.

Then I wasn’t confused. Good to know.

two(to)went(gone)run on sentence…..white and caucausian(redundent)out side (outside,one word)
How lovely someone as dumb as you is an obama supporter…reminds me of a black woman who said she was voting for barack “cause he goona pay my bills”Now there is a quick look at the dumb obama voter….

No, I wouldn’t. I don’t care about Cain. He was never going to be President so I enjoy all of the libs going in a tizzy over him.

Uppity is such a normal word that I laugh at articles like this.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

you keep digging yourself deeper and deeper in the hole of stupidity.

I’ll comment about your stupidity any time I want. As far as talking to you, I would never want to waste my time listening to anything you have to say. I don’t really like associating with morons.

I am shocked at articles like this. I’ve never known the term uppity to have a racial connotation. Kinda makes me laugh when liberals go all in on stuff like this but think it’s ok to use other terms to denigrate women and so on.

Uppity = well-groomed. It’s like the anti-redneck. So I hope that these same people will not use words like hillbilly and redneck going forward. :)

‘It wasn’t a dog whistle…it was a bugle call.’ Chris Matthew’s

There’s a surprise coming from the deeply gender, sexually and racially sensitive Limbaugh…

…I’m shocked and stunned. Stunned and positively flabbergasted. 

You just made a comment that made no sense so I expect you to not talk to me. Glad we can agree on that. :) We both agree that the other person adds no value to the other person. Let’s continue those vibes. I won’t comment you and you won’t comment me. Happy Sunday! :)

You’re just so confused you don’t realize you’re confused.  

You can sit here and be snide about my grammar as I click out sentences as fast as possible and feel “oh so superior” to me. But rest assured with this so called “knowledge” that you have, you are still too stupid to see the Republican Party is filled with racists like yourself. My fast typing and and replying will lend itself to small errors in gramar, I readily admit. However , your positions show a total lack of knowledge. So go back to college and get a degree, idiot girl.

I’ll be happy to compare IQ test anytime with you. By the way, you didn’t capitalize your sentence in your reply. Your entire premise has just been destroyed.

Look, we’re not saying it’s always racist, or the word is a bad word. It’s fine that you don’t see it as racist. All that we are saying is that to a large segment of America, this word can and was used as a racial slur. Because we think (based on past usage) it can be a racially tinged word, we ask that people handle it carefully. We’re not infringing on your beliefs, we just want you (and Rush) to know it’s offensive to us.

You can think it’s preposterous, but to close your ears and eyes and go “lalala I’ve never heard of that so it must not be true” is childish. If we all did that from kindergarten on, how would be ever learn anything about anything? 2+2 is 4? Never heard of that, you guys must be making it up…

“People are suckers.  Liberals are even bigger suckers.  Liberals who want government help are practically lost souls.Conservatives are handicapped by their own decency.  That is an Alinsky rule, right in the handbook.  They take advantage of our decency, and we don’t want to give up our values because we would become like them.The only way to fight them is with free speech — what remains of it — to expose the militant left over and over again.Now that they have the White House, the hour is late.  This is a time of crisis and decision.  If you tell your friends nothing else, please get them to understand that.This one will be pure citizen power against the radical left, which never plays fair.Where do you stand?  How about your friends?  Don’t waste time on the terminally brainwashed.  They don’t think for themselves.  Spend time connecting with people who understand what’s going on.And then please act peacefully, democratically, and with a clear sense of purpose.”Read more: http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/11/the_wall_street_occupiers_as_mind_erasers.html#ixzz1ewCCYstf

“Uppity is blatantly southern..both whites and blacks use this term.

Don’t sweat it RAM-Sarah Palin always begs people not to talk to her. its her own special brand of commenter pathology. 

She’ break her own rules when she wants so feel free to ignore her advice. As you saw from her inital comment she rarely adds anything intelligent to the conversation.

Her sock puppet michelle is even worse!

Happy Sunday Indeed!

From Hill billy redneck Sarah Palin of course.

That was just too obvious.

You need more limbaugh in your life!

Yup you struck a nerve.

Chris Mathews is just a left wing circle jerk.

 Bravo!

Hearing about Limbaugh second hand is plenty…

…In fact sometimes more than necessary.

He is after all just selling his brand to a rabid and eagerly xenophobic audience…

Rubber Gloves a cuttin’ and a pastin’ again. 

????

lol….so you stupidly admit to thinking that Palin was going to run? lmao.

How many blacks have you called uppity?

Wrong……there are other GOP base solutions  to immigration eg Electric fence, alligator pit and their all-time favourite- vigilante shooting of illegals!

lmao

Damn I didn’t know you libs had a racist check list. Please share.

All the libs on this thread are uppity!

So because you personally find it offensive, society at large can’t use it? That seems un-American.

Why should I, as someone that doesn’t see stuff through a racial prism, be forced to abide by those that do? That seems like a false choice.

I choose no racial undertones and will continue to use uppity as I see fit. You can continue to racially charge the word.

However, if you really wanted to get rid of racial inequality, you would get rid of affirmative action and black-only universities. I don’t see that happening. Obviously it’s a larger discussion, but it’s all apart of the racial divide that you wish to continue.

I’m glad that people like you find me confused. :)

Excellent attribution. :)

Actually I picture you when I hear that term.  Uppity = U I pity.

Ah, the Democrat base is comfortable calling the GOP xenophobic.

I see Limbaugh mentioned here. You gonna go the whole thread without issuing a death wish, Pub?

The spirit and intellect of the left…

Sunday Morning Political Shows: Leftist Media Hacks lamenting the reality that everything crashing down around them. Go ahead, Leftists, whine about Limbaugh. He’ll STILL bludgeon all of you with 15 weekly hours of truth heard by millions.

That ‘Fairness Doctrine’ sounds pretty good right about now, doesn’t it? LOL.

Limbaugh is their leader and their leader uses racist language. What’s so hard about this?

Ah, the old “you’re the racist one, for noticing my racism”, canard.

You can think it’s preposterous, but to close your ears and eyes and go
“lalala I’ve never heard of that so it must not be true” is childish.

How childish is it to assume that it must be racist? There’s a bunch of people up there who get paid to say things making that claim and extrapolating it across a great swath of their fellow Americans.

ouch… A bugle must be ‘blown’. And uuuhhh… You are the ‘Guy’ to blow it…

You know damn well that if anyone referred to Colin Powell as an Uncle Tom or a House Negro, you and your ilk would be screaming racism from the highest mountain in sight. Despite the fact that you were doing exactly that about 8 years ago.

Do we really need to run down the racist language of all the lefty leaders recently, and throughout history?

Plllleeeeeeeazzzzze!

Where have you been??

Guess what? An equal amount of Democrats and Republican attend those “NASCAR Games”, so Matthews attacking Republicans for Mooch being booed at the “game” doesn’t hold water.

Yes, 30 percent of NASCAR adherents identify themselves as leaning to the GOP, according to a lengthy survey of the subject released this summer. But 29 percent say they’re Democrats.

You will feel better after your gender reassignment surgery. Hell, you may even become a Rush fan!

It’s simply a fact. Maybe some of you aren’t old enough, but “Uppity black” (or “colored” or “negro”) was a common phrase to describe a black person who didn’t “know their place”  from the slave days on through the 20th century,  for all you disingenuous Limbaugh defenders.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKYH4HYZCtg

What cute liberally deranged spelling! But your liberal pity helps no one, look what it’s done to black people and homosexuals.

It’s not childish to assume it’s racist, it’s childish to deny that it’s not possibly racist on the basis that you’ve never heard of it or that no one you know used it that way. Though a lot of people make a lot of things up, all you have to do is look it up for yourself. My knee jerk reaction to it was that it was racist, but then I looked it up. The fact that the N word is the first word in Urban Dictionary’s thesaurus for when you type “uppity” makes me think that it’s racist to some people. If/when you do look it up, you’ll see that there are a lot of people who find it to be offensive, particularly the way it’s been used recently in the media

That’s right comrade, only people with I.Q.’s over 130 should be making decisions. The rest should be sterilized and sent to re-education camps and taught that 2 +2 = 5 if that’s what the smart people want.

Such a beautiful world it would be.

Wise, you are not.

It’s a word used by racist old white Southerners to refer to any black person who looks them in the eye!  Usually followed by the N word.  So, Rush drops the N word.  That doesn’t mean it’s not there, in his head, or yours.   

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=uppity

No, I didn’t say society can’t use it. I’m saying that society should be careful when using it because of the racial connotations. It’s not about whether or not you choose to look at things in a “racial prism”, it’s about whether or not you care that fellow Americans have feelings attached to certain words. It’s about whether you decide to have empathy or not.

I’m not racially charging the word, I’m just bringing up the fact that it was a racially charged word in American history. That’s a fact.

After being dropped on your head by your grandfather, you woke up with a massive case of white guilt. Did you mean to insult ‘southern’ liberals with that comment. You should apologize to all of the birth defected southern liberals you have offended. You may need some kind of cockamamie southern liberal sensitivity training.

wait, a discussion about racism and no Byrd mention yet? get to it, xenophobes… and watch it, you’re straying away from your patented lack of creativeness

Calling the FIRST LADY ‘UPPIDY’??

Hey genius. One question.

Did the word exist in the English language and was it used before the time period you are describing?

If so, was it not used against white people before it was used against black people?

If so, is it not one of those words you find in Webster’s dictionary with multiple and similar meanings?

Take your time.

Maybe smoke a joint first to avoid those darn headaches.

The ‘burlap’ is irritating your balls, put them in your mouth.

actually it is TOO?  not ‘to’.
again–funny how conservatives ATTACK LIBERALS AS THEY ACTUALLY COMMIT THE ‘CRIME’ THEY ARE CONDEMNING…
you just cannot make this stuff up folks~

It’s relatively easy to make an idiot of yourself while you’re calling out someone else.  It’s two (too).  I wont draw a link between your ignorance of grammar and your politics.  That would be stupid.      

Don’t confuse the lefty Presstitutes with facts. Their pimps told them that all NASCAR fans are Republican Rednecks. That has to be true.

You mean it’s a liberal fact, meaning backward and perverted. Is that colored transsexual in your icon pic you, TOM BENNETT?

You mean it’s a liberal fact, meaning backward and perverted. Is that colored transsexual in your icon pic you, TOM BENNETT?

Liberals have no clue what the term “racist” actually means.

One guy uses the word “uppity” and all of a sudden the entire GOP base is xenophobic.

That sure says a lot about the leftists in this country.

Lynch a person coz they’re black, deny them a job because they are black, call them uppity because they are black. Actually, the list is much longer but there is pattern to it.  So, you can raise you’re telescope to your blind eye and say ‘I see no ships’.  It only works when you’re talking to your own though.

If you don’t understand the negative connotation of the word, maybe you shouldn’t be so quick to disregard Limbaugh’s implied meaning.  

Try saying that on 125th Street in NYC and see how it works out for you.

one guy Sh1ts on a cop car and the whole OWS movement are defecating hippies 

lemming, you are!

Well said…

lol…..you are really confused. I am not surprised because you are a palinbot

I NEVER think the N word.  Nice try though.  Me thinks you are projecting. 

LMAO……..coming from someone that would see no problems in calling a black man uppity!!

Yes, that would be a good use of the term Blueblogger.

And I’m Caucasian.

Seems like old times.

Byrd is dead they are talking about the present you goof.

It’s perfectly plausible that some people wouldn’t know the racist implication of the word.  Are you saying that Limbaugh was so naive not to know that?  And if so, after being informed he had racially slurred the First Lady (as well as all blacks in the U.S.) don’t you think the right thing for him to do would be to apologize?

Why dont you call a black man “uppity” in public if you believe that it doesnt have racist connotations. You would be branded a racist by most people surrounding you

Well which is it? Stereotyping is right, or, stereotyping is wrong?

Or is it only wrong if a non-lefty does it? That’s what you really think, isn’t it?

hey, Michelle the racist- it was a black person that Limbaugh was calling uppity. It is as bad as calling a black man a “monkey”

NASCAR people were called rednecks and hillbillies in the thread just days ago.

I’ve also been called a hillbilly based on what state I live in. That’s also a negative connotation but does that stop the usage? No.

It wasn’t a fact that was taught in schools. Why should I, as a Caucasian, be held to standards because folks within the African American community don’t like the term uppity? How is being uppity a bad term for the African American community? It essentially means well-mannered and aiming for perfection of some sorts. It also means that you enjoy the finer things which is why people that belong to country clubs would also be called uppity. Am I not allowed to also say shi shi?

It’s a racist term when coupled with ‘black’ or ‘negro’.  I’m not from the South either and I thought Rush meant to imply that when he used it – he just left off the second word.  That is not seeing race in everything, it’s just knowing how a word is employed culturally.     

Funny how they don’t mention the color of the dogs.

Josh – I wouldn’t use Urban Dictionary as a barometer for the meaning of much.

And what media, other than Limbaugh, has used the term uppity? I haven’t seen it used elsewhere. So where else have you seen it been used?

lol………lemming……..stereotyping is wrong, as a black man, I HATE IT.

Yeah, the old ‘Rush-is-racist-for-referring-to-blacks-in-racist-terms’ time.  Good to see you’re here to apologize for him.  

Athens, OH still rules.  Good luck with Urban Meyer.

Nope I didn’t. Therefore I can sin? That makes no sense.

Why would I randomly use a word? That makes no sense.

It’s sad that liberals see absolutely everything in terms of race.  To live with that level of racism must be exhausting. 

Uppidy?

Perhaps he doesn’t think that lefties should have control over the dictionaries.

After all, remember all those commie countries who called themselves the Democratic Republic of NoFreedomstanistan?

Lefties love to take control of words and make them fit their agenda.

They can’t order a milkshake without thinking about it.

I think the alligator pit has been misconstrued and so misunderstood. 

The alligators will NOT receive extra training to eat illegals per se, as opposed to other types of humans.

Instead, under the GOP program, the alligators will receive special INCENTIVES to chomp down on selected types of humans, with those humans selected for special treatment either having freshly killed chicken parts sewn into their clothing or receiving a series of small, humane, doctor-supervised and themselves non-fatal cuts so sufficient blood flows out from them to better distinguish them from other non-selected types of humans, the latter of whom will receive extra protection by being denied entry into the alligator feeding pit in the first instance. This will allow the invisible claw of the market place to decide.

I’ll be happy if it’s Urb.

“Ah, the Democrat base is comfortable calling the GOP xenophobic.”
Yes, it is; which is difficult to understand why?

“That sure says a lot about the leftists in this country.”

Yes, I agree: it speaks very loudly and long to the non-xenophobia of the non-xenophobic party.

Hey, when a guy has to go, one cop car is as good as another.

Did we actually ever see whether the guy was able to squeeze one out?

Like I said, you guys manufacture all sorts of Rube Goldberg-esque arguments to defend your stupid-ass ideologies. We all know language changes through history, dip shit. You stupid piece of worthless dung. And that isn’t mincing words, a-hole. 

That’s a good one.

“It wasn’t a fact that was taught in schools. Why should I, as a
Caucasian, be held to standards because folks within the African
American community don’t like the term uppity?”

Because you’re a human being and fellow American. If I tell you something offends me, are you going to respect that it does or decide that because it doesn’t directly affect you, it doesn’t apply to you? The former is called empathy, the latter is called being an ignorant douchebag

Liberals are nice.

The proper term is bigoted assholes… or, in Limbaugh’s case, drug-addicted bigoted asshole.

Sorry, where did this become about you and your fight to continue to employ the term ‘uppity’ in the face of rampant opposition?  Can I say, I think its safe to come out of your bunker.  

Rush isn’t a racist so no, he was referring to the fact that Michelle Obama doesn’t make sense in her actions.

Such as: Planting a garden over what was, from what I understand, not proper soil. And they also bill it as organic, when it’s not: http://www.examiner.com/green-living-in-seattle/michelle-obama-s-organic-garden-goes-to-waste-thanks-to-bill-and-hillary

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-505123_162-44043259/the-war-over-michelle-obamas-sort-of-organic-white-house-garden/

Let’s also look at the Examiner article. See that photo on the right? No gardener, unless you are on Wisteria Lane, would wear that outfit. Let’s not forget the time where Michelle wore designer/fancy shoes to a charity event featuring the needy: http://minx.cc/?post=286726

Typical hate filled progressive.

So Michelle can only be seen as Black and not as the First Lady? Odd.

Yes, calm your vag; you’re getting a bit hysterical – and it’s alarming people.

I don’t think lefties created the term ‘uppity’ to describe blacks.  Just sayin’.

You ever seen clerks 2?  I imagine you have had this conversation.

http://youtu.be/dWdVwt2deY4

Oh yes, the modern form of racism.  Deny you’re doing it while you’re doing it.  Seen it before.  Something new from white and right propaganda machine please.

Hip hop music that includes vile words offends me. Will we stop playing hip hop music too?

This is in keeping with the logic that you are putting forth. Show some empathy towards me and stop playing music with the N word, words calling females hoes and so on. Sounds simple enough since it is something that personally offends my gender.

Lol.  There are liberal and conservative ‘facts’ now are there?  Keep your head down in that WW1 trench you’re in or one of those perverted liberal bullets will take your hat off.

Uppity is not a racial term. People make it racial.

Real racism comes in the form of affirmative action and not words such as uppity that can be used on ALL races.

Please don’t talk to me anymore. I don’t respond to misogynists. Toodles.

Didn’t mean to like that lol. It doesn’t matter what i use, the fact I’m making is that someone (outside of the media) sees a connection between Uppity and the N word.

Direct quote from a Georgia Representative: ““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. That was in 2008, during the election…Even Rush Limbaugh used it in the very way we’re talking about. And it was covered on this very site.http://www.mediaite.com/online/rush-limbaugh-cain-hit-piece-is-purely-about-blacks-getting-too-uppity/So, he knew what he was saying then and in this situation.

You know what?  It doesn’t take a whole lot of brain to realise that Democrats would not be booing the first lady.

Here is the problem for Rush and his apologists on this matter:  there is nothing wrong with complaining about the First Lady if you don’t like her.  There are numerous adjectives that he could have used to describe her as ‘arrogant.’  Conceited, cocky, know-it-all, egotistical, etc.  Of all the words Limbaugh could have used, he chose ‘uppity,’ which has ties to the old south, and has deep negative, racist subtext to it. 

Why do you think Limbaugh chose that word?  Do you think he hasn’t been around long enough to understand its meaning when used to describe a black person?  Do you honestly believe he is that truly naive and uninformed?  Or are you honest enough to admit he knew what he was doing when he played that card?  

When whites make references to fried chicken and watermelon, it has one face value meaning when said to Caucasians, and it can have a whole other meaning when you are applying it in snickering terms to black folks.  You can claim ignorance all you want, it doesn’t make it right.

If you want to see a bunch of ‘presstitutes’ tune into Fox News.  It don’t know what those lovely ladies are doing for their viewers but they certainly aren’t informing them about the news according to the latest poll.

What does what she wears in the garden have to do with Rush referring to a black woman as ‘uppity?’

I  don’t like conservative cowards. So I guess I’m not nice.

It’s very lazy of you not to.  Perhaps nothing readily springs to mind and you will need to trawl ‘through history’.  

Gosh, I have no idea what you’re talking about.  Must be funny though, you made yourself laugh.

lol…..only hip hop uses bad words? keep stereotyping as if rock music doesnt use bad words as well

How is that relevant?

My question is, how is she ‘uppity’ (pretending to be above her station) given that she is in fact the first lady. The comment makes little sense, even without the racial connotations. 

Just guessing … you’re about 12 years old — “Michelle” too, I’d have to say.  There is no context — none — in which referring to a black man or woman as “uppity” is NOT a willful reference to “a negro who does not know his/her place.”  It was used since the earliest days of American slavery in that manner, and reached a height, of sorts, during Jim Crow.

Oh, wait, you’re 12.  You probably think “Jim Crow” is a video game, or brand of bourbon.

Morons.

“Conservative coward.”

Redundant.

——–

NB – FWIW … The “conservatives” on this site aren’t conservatives — let’s hope. They are “Conservatives.”  Or, in any event, “connedservatives.”

You can ban ban some grunge rock too. :) But hip hop can be gotten rid of as a genre if we’re going to judge on decency.

John – I don’t see what is wrong with what the Georgia Representative said was wrong. Uppity has a connotation that reaches across ALL races. Why do you want to live in the past? That makes no sense.

Uppity is an attitude. Michelle Obama’s attitude with her actions denotes the uppity. That’s why.

That’s not what uppity means. At least know what the term means before commenting.

Wowsa.

Why do I think that Limbaugh chose that word? Because it was a word that came to his mind. I would use the word uppity on Michelle too. Just as I would use the same term on the Kardashians or any other person.

You are the one seeing race is all of this. Wowsa indeed.

You conveniently sidestepped the key issue.  Do you believe Limbaugh understood the implied racist meaning of the word when he used the term?

You are a racist and a bigot.

“On today’s Chris Matthews Show, the panel used the NASCAR incident as a prism through which to analyze the Republican race and, noting that the Republican base– the kind that is comfortable with calling the First Lady “uppity”– is “xenophobic and nativist,” they wondered how such an extreme party could win a general election.”

Yeah, and they’re rapists, too! And insert-other-bad-things!

Do these douche bags realize that they basically sound like SNL parodies of themselves? You know, back when the show was actually funny.

Great, you just admitted total ignorance to the history of the civil right movement. We should hold your opinion in such high esteem. How can you even comment on things you admittedly know nothing about.

Fat chance of that happening, idiot boy. Anytime you show your right winged stupidity I am calling you on it and showing you to be the ignoramus that you are. 

I think I’ll trust the American Heritage dictionary over your criteria of what a word means or not …

“up·pi·ty  (p-t)adj. InformalTaking liberties or assuming airs beyond one’s station; presumptuous”

How did that possibly upset southern liberals. They know the history of the south. WTF up.

You are new here. When did you go to your last klan meeting?

Yes we do need to hear them. I’d like to hear them, anyway. Go ahead. I’m waiting.

Hehe….well said.

I looked at a black guy cross eyed the other day and then he ran off like the guy in the old “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” on the freeway stopping cars and yelling and stuff. He’s xenophobic, not me. I am fully human. 100%

If I was rich and watching this on TV I’d have my slave throw a can of paint onto the screen and then have him haul in another TV.

I live in Borneo so it’s okay.

Believe me, many people have long realized the GOP is xenophobic irrespective of the utterance of one racially-tinged adjective.

LIGHT THAT STICK OF DYNAMITE IN YOUR ASSHOLE.   BOOM!    KID BUTTSMOKE!

LOL. Of course their are! The bullets aren’t a problem, but the perverted liberals are a problem! All across the fruited plain. 

That was a good one! Now answer his question.

I don’t like liberal cowards who shit on sidewalks and dress like women. But I am nice.

Sooooo… If we tune into MSNBC we will get ‘straight’ news from Rachel Bulldyke? Start typing, fruit…

Kwiss is the xenophobe, and the first lady is obviously a ‘native’!!

Don’t order the chocolate milkshakes. You’ll feel terrible.

I’m sorry, does it make you angry when you can’t counter an argument?

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!

Lefties are so pathetic!

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Oh looky, another non-lefty gets banned for Free Speech.

My, Oh my!

 ”Some junior high n*gger kicked Steve’s ass while he was trying to
help his brothers out; junior high or sophomore in high school. Whatever
it was, Steve had the n*gger down. However it was, it was Steve’s
fault. He had the n*gger down, he let him up. The n*gger blindsided
him.” — Roger Clinton, the President’s brother on audiotape

“You’d find these potentates from down in Africa, you know, rather

“Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in
the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours
become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen
from the wilds.” — Former Klansman and current US Senator Robert Byrd, a
man who is referred to by many Democrats as the “conscience of the
Senate”, in a letter written in 1944, after he quit the KKK.

“I am a former kleagle of the Ku Klux Klan in Raleigh County and the
adjoining counties of the state …. The Klan is needed today as never
before and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia …. It
is necessary that the order be promoted immediately and in every state
of the Union. Will you please inform me as to the possibilities of
rebuilding the Klan in the Realm of W. Va …. I hope that you will find
it convenient to answer my letter in regards to future possibilities.” —

And…..

THE TOTALLY REAL AND NOT FAKE QUOTES SHENANIGANZA TOP TEN
10. Democrat Fritz Hollings of South Carolina thinks being from Africa makes you a cannibal: “You’d find these potentates from down in Africa, you know, rather than eating each other, they’d just come up and get a good square meal in Geneva.”

9. Howard Dean reaches out: “I still want to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks.”

8. California Democrat Diane Watson thinks interracial marriage is icky: “He’s married to a white woman. He wants to be white. He wants a colorless society. He has no ethnic pride. He doesn’t want to be black.”

7. Howard Dean thinks service positions are for minorities, not big fancy white people: “You think the Republican National Committee could get this many people of color in a single room? … Only if they had the hotel staff in here.”

6. Joe Biden explains why southern Democrats should vote for him: “My state was a slave state.”

5. “Conscience of the Senate” and former Klansman Robert Byrd on equal opportunity: “I’ve seen a lot of white n*ggers in my time.

4. Hillary Clinton does an impression (complete with accent) of an African-American man who didn’t know what Emily’s List was: “She’s supportin’ all these people. She’s supportin’ Sen. Dianne Feinstein . She’s supported Sen. Barbara Boxer . . . She supported everybody. Why won’t she support me?”
3. Democratic Mayor of New Orleans Ray Nagin denies that white people might live in New Orleans: “I don’t care what people are saying Uptown or wherever they are. This city will be chocolate at the end of the day.””
2. Democrat Steny Hoyer reviews Michael Steele’s career: “[He has] a career of slavishly supporting the Republican Party.”
1. Then Senator Joe Biden fills us in on who works at convenience stores: “You cannot go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent … I’m not joking.”

Don’t look at me that way. I told you they were really real. Did you think I was joking? Well I wasn’t.

Every single one of those quotes is a real, legitimate, well-sourced quote. Totally real; not fake.

Now ask yourself why the unsourced fake Limbaugh quotes get so much more play than these actual statements. Not so funny anymore, huh?

Everyone has a value in our society. Some people are better at certain things and some at others. The poorly educated and highly religious elements should not be in a position of creating pubic policy. I want the best and the brightest making decisions for our country, not those who mire themselves in fairy tales, bigotry and were the worst students. I’m sure you would rather have a religious zealot, anti-science, bigot and homophobe running the country. So moron, just ask yourself why is there the biggest gap between rich and poor that there has ever been in the country? It is because of the Republican idiots you keep voting into office. Class warfare has already taken place and you lost. You’re too stupid to know it, comrade.

I haven’t laughed so hard in ages, man.  Thanks.

Uh, I’m guessing they’ve heard “uppity” used in the only sense I’ve heard heard it used in the South?  I’ve never heard it used to refer to anyone but an African-American seen as having “forgotten his place” by  some racist. Although they used a different word for “African-American” there; can you guess it?

 … Correction, I once heard “uppity” used for a so-called “wetback Mexican” whose ancestors had lived here for five generations or so.  Nothing racial or xenophobic about that, right?

Please, you bitches on the right do a better job as race baited____________ (insert anything here).  I mean your people are famous for your race based politics, by using the most negative images of minorities to win elections.  I mean how many liberals have gotten caught sending racist e-mails and how many racist posters and t-shirts were on display during tea bagger events?

Let me clue you in on something, my Chicano friend, we didn’t gloss Colin Powell those negative words because Colin didn’t behave in a lawn jockey type manner, unlike Rastus.  That douchebag goes above and beyond with his cowardly house n!ggerism

That’s because you’re not “Black” and from the south.  I don’t have a problem with the word, because I am uppity.  I don’t look at the Anglo-Saxon with awe and wonderment, I look at you bitches as what you are, the fcking competition.  That’s why I made sure that I work hard, that I got a good education, that I’m smart with my  money, all the things that you people wouldn’t expect from someone who looks like me. That fat, dope addicted gas bag can say whatever the fck he wants.  I always consider the source anyway

As opposed to the Dem practice of gerrymandering illegal foreign nationals and ignoring federal law in the hopes that the teeming millions from the Third World will be Dems themselves. When you practice race-baiting as do the Dems it is likely it’ll work. Black folks don’t vote for Dems 90-95% of the time for any reason other than race. If it was issues it’d be split.

And exactly what is xenophobic about upholding the law – special colors get a special pass? Gee, what a surprise coming from a Dem.

Apparently you haven’t read the story about hundreds of pounds of crap cleaned at one site alone.

You exaggerate lynchings, talk about jobs denied you have no personal knowledge of and read minds that say uppity is racist. The  only pattern is in your head which is devoid of facts.

Are you kidding? You think the word uppity is specifically racist? What weird world devoid of context and literature do you live in?

How do you know uppity was used as a racial slur? Are you some kind of disembodied spirit that hovers over America and sees all at a single glance? You’ve been watching “The Color Purple” too much. The idea that legions of white people marched around reminding black folks of their place is simply stupid. And again, the inference is that only white folks are capable of racism in all of history.

Josh, thanks for admitting that people have to be careful around black folks and walk on tip toe and cut out half the English language because the least little thing might set them off or be misconstrued. You’re describing people who are permanently offended and which no one wants to be around – who would be other than a masochist? It’s like 30 million Uncle Scrooges according to you.

And of course, it’s a democrat who has deported more Hispanics than any other President in history:

Never mind reality, though. Is Obama a “xenophobe” too?

One guy shits on a cop car and the whole OWS movement are malcontents with no plan.

No, but lefties are determined to impart their chosen meaning on anything someone who isn’t falling in line says, regardless of the intent of the speech. This has been going on for a long, long time.

Reading WCinWI2 comments they do seem to be ignorant of facts or empathy.  Wearing they ignorance on their sleeve like a badge of honor.  WI must be proud.

You are an empty headed child who makes stuff up to fill in the blanks.

To americanoutlaw.  You liar.

Vent your spleen on Fairleigh Dickenson peaches.

Well, that didn’t make a whole lot of sense either.

What is the matter with you?  Anyone would think you have heat rash of the brain.  Clearly, Limbaugh knows about the racist connotations of the word and uses it to describe a black person.  It doesn’t matter if it has other connotations and no racism at all when used to describe a white person.  I mean, do you think calling Michelle Bachmann a bitch is the same as calling a dog a bitch?

Weird and detached from reality more like.

You had me at “hello.”
NASCAR “game?”
Now that’s what I call leaving “race” out of the conversation!

Being superior and vested with implied authorites over the minions. That is insulting. I will eat what I please. Thank you very much.

Of course it’s xenophobic.  Always has been.
