Uppity in everything but name

MANIFESTO

A few bloggers have picked up on Bush's Brain's comments regarding the "coolly arrogant" persona of Barack Obama. This is obviously Republicanspeak for "uppity Negro."

It's always amusing to see these Republicans casting stones. I.e., BB's boss, the veritable Smirkmeister, made an art of arrogance, but, to paraphrase Huck Finn, "that's all right because he done it hisself."

UPDATE — Steve Benen also comments on the irony of BB's statement.
