ebonlockAnyone who grew up in the south or was raised by those who did will groan aloud when they read this:
In a Washington D.C. conversation with reporters, the two-term Sharpsburg congressman was discussing the speech of Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin when he was asked to compare her with Michelle Obama.
“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, according to The Hill, a newspaper that covers Capitol Hill.
When asked to clarify, Westmoreland said, “Uppity, yeah.”
Sadly, No! has also included the Stephen Colbert "Better Know a District" interview with Westmoreland that has gone down in history as one of the most brilliant moments of political satire. The infamous "Ten Commandments" question. Yes, this is the same idiot.
