Yessir, the Republicans have done it again. They’ve gone and called Barack Obama, the well-educated, distinguished Senator running for President of the United States, “uppity.”
Speaking with Politico, an anonymous (of course!) Bush insider used the tainted term while going over his keys for a McCain victory in November:
The tactics that got them to mid-September in a tie are not going to get them to 50 percent plus one in November. They need … an eye toward driving out the range of contrast that makes McCain different from Obama (action-oriented rhetoric v. grand prose; accessible v. uppity; humble servant of country v. arrogant).
Yahoo! Expect more of this bullshit as Election Day draws nearer.
How about we take this to the next level?

The only thing a Bushite could mean is that Obama seems more intelligent than Bush or McGoo. That’s hard for almost anyone not to do because everyone is .With I.Q’s in the 80 range, it’s hard not to look humble.

I’m missing something. “Uppity” is racist?
What about “yuppie?” Is that racist too?

RRGG,
