Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee on Friday accused Newt Gingrich of using racial code words in calling President Barack Obama the food stamp president and saying schools ought to hire children to do janitorial work.
The Texas congresswomans comments came in response to a question about remarks she made on the House floor Wednesday, when she said there are candidates like Newt Gingrich who want to throw fuel and matches and fire to develop sort of an explosiveness in this country and there are underlying suggestions to calling Obama the food stamp president.
These are code words. Its inappropriate, Jackson Lee told MSNBCs Martin Bashir Friday. Let me say that the code words, as far as Im concerned words that generate and signify race.

Some people can find racism anywhere.
It was predicted four years ago that any criticism of Obama would be labelled racist. Those people were true prophets.
Sorta like when “commander zero” channelled malcolm x and told black audiences that they’d been “bamboozled”? Sorta like that?
“and the racists that live off its disgusting leverage in America.”
Yeh Sheila, racists like you.
Sheila is code for ding bat.
I'm thinking white trash when I hear "Food Stamp President"
Assume the percentage of blacks on food stamps hasn't changed much in the last three years.
If Sheila Jackson Lee automatically ASSUMES that the poor children about whom Newt is talking are black, it seems to me that SHE is the one who is the racist. There are more poor WHITE people than there are poor black people, and they need to learn how to get and keep jobs, too.
Well, buy them a chicken dinnah! (oh wait, that's "code"...)
Ignorant Socialist is racist code.
We have an entire segment of our population, including members of all branches of government, whose 24/7 existence is consumed by envy, resentment, and outright hatred. It really doesn’t matter what wrongs they claim to be righting, the fact is that they are the most race-conscious people on the planet. If that isn’t the most accurate definition of racism then what is?
I just came out of the bathroom after flushing an obama.
Is that racist too?
Yes and liberals get to invent the “code” so they can change it whenever the mood strikes...get real! Shelia Jackson Lee is code word for “ignorant” isn’t it?

The Admiral he was speaking to deserves a medal for retining his composure in the face of such abject stupidity.
No, Sheila. When Newt starts talking about “Canadians” or “Amish” without a work ethic, then he’ll be using racial code words. He’s actually been quite straightforward.
Lee is nothing but a race-baiter who has a serious problem with her thinking - anybody who doesn’t parrot the Marxist line she accuses of racism.
Sheila you ignorant slut, STFU
