'Elitist' Use of Word Toward Senator Obama is CODE for Being an 'Uppity Negro,' or an 'Uppity Nigger!'
by Miriam G. Aw
The use of the word 'elitist' may fit some people who are just that, elitist, in terms of having multiple vehicles, expensive homes, a lot of money, power wielders, a member of an organization that you and I perhaps could not become members, etc. However, in the case of Senator Obama, who is called an 'elitist' by Sen. John McCain, Gov. Palin, and other GOP'ers of the Republican party have an entirely different meaning, and they are well aware of it!
Anyone with an ounce of gray matter in their brain seemingly understand what an elitist is by all accounts. And whenever you see someone on television pointing out McCain's use of the word 'elitist' describing Senator Obama, thus explaining how Senator Obama cannot be an elitist due to his [Caucasian] mom being a woman who was a single parent receiving public assistance (welfare), therefore, how in the world can he described as an elitist, is insulting!
The use of the word "elitist" is a "code" word describing Senator Barack Obama as an uppity negro, or uppity nigger, who has the 'audacity to hope' (no pun intended) in becoming the next President of the United States of America of the 21st Century! In addition, McCain basically spelled it out when he was recently seen and heard on a daytime television show, "The View." Joy Behar, one of the co-host of the show asked Senator McCain about his recent t.v. political ads that she said were 'lies,' and that he (McCain) approved them. McCain states that they weren't lies. However, one of the first things that came out of his mouth, thereafter, when he was explaining as to why it has come to this point [dirty politics], which is because Senator Obama did not take him up on his offer to have town hall meetings as he requested. In other words, what McCain was saying that had Senator Obama agreed with his request to have town hall meeting debates throughout America, there would be no need for these negative untruthful campaign ads that exist today!
So, what McCain is saying that since Obama refused to meet with him to have these town hall meeting debates at his request, he is "punishing" Obama by spanking him with lies, smears, and untruthfulness. When a father tells his son to clean up his room, and the child refuses to do such, the father will either: 1) physically spank the child for not listening to what he was told to do, and/or 2) punish him by taking away some of his privileges (i.e., computer, t.v., games).
Thus, whenever you have a grown man, who is Black, who turns down a man, who is Caucasian, and that Black man is doing exceptionally well in the polls better than the Caucasian man who has been around a bit longer in the world of politics, it is no wonder that the Caucasian male would feel that a Black male is acting "too big for his britches!" This type of mentality was evident during black slavery: Whenever you had a Black man who has shown to have more common sense than his Caucasian slave owner, and whenever you had a Black man who is smarter, stronger, healthier, and wiser than his Caucasian slave owner, then the slave owner becomes angered believing that the Black man is defying him, and as a result of it, needs to be punished!
Another misconception of the phrase "Raising your taxes," does not apply to the average American. For example, at the Republican National Convention (RNC), it seems that this phraseology of "Obama will be raising your taxes," was (and still is) a message to the people who earn MORE THAN $250,000 annually, and NOT toward the average American people who make LESS THAN $250,000! More "code words' being used in a way that perhaps many do not realize.
As I understand it, it is the [old] Republican party of long time ago that was responsible for abolishing [Black] slavery - Abraham Lincoln, I presume? But as it turns out, the [current] Republican party has crossed the line of impugning the efforts of Lincoln, as well as other un-sung COMMUNITY ORGANIZING LEADERS, such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., former President, Jimmy Carter (Habitat for Humanity), all types of volunteers (i.e., hospital, community centers, local schools, recreational centers, hospices, legal, medicine, domestic violence centers, non-profit organizations, etc.), and the list goes on and on.
Do not be fooled by the word 'elitist' when it is aimed at Senator Barack Obama. In fact, Newsweek reported something http://www.newsweek.com/id/160091 that you may find interesting.
