I, too, have noted a distinct lack of shuffling in that particular Negro's gait.

And have you noticed that he doesn't avert his eyes when talking to the white man?

I was so afraid that it would be about a Pennsylvania senator. We have a Westmoreland County. :)

*phew*

The Onion has a video about how a black guy being called "elitist" is a huge step forward for African-Americans.

Y'know, I often have the Elitist term hung around my neck. I almost beat the crap out of the last conservative co-worker who did that. Obama, the son of a single mother who worked his way up to become what he is now is elitst. Yeah, I have bridge to sell these people. But, you know, I would say that Michelle Obama is uppity. And I say good for her!
