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.
Her comments came just days after former President Jimmy Carter made a similar charge against Gingrich.

I guess those DemocRats don't use code words when poisoning the minds of our youth.
Of course these are the same people that say President Obama is getting no respect.
oh here we go again
So, White people don’t use Food Stamps? Really?
It is true. If you run Gingrich’s debate speech through a racism decoder, it says “drink more Ovaltine.”
Just exclude anyone who feels offended from the janitorial jobs!
How very racist she must be to hear “food stamps” and automatically associate that with the black community!!
Sheila Jackson Lee should recognize racial coding when she sees it, she is an expert. I think she has used it every single day during her entire adult life. I guess it sucks to know that your race card just expired. FUSJL
During a 2005 visit to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California, Lee asked a guide whether the Mars Pathfinder had taken a photograph of the flag planted on Mars by Neil Armstrong in 1969.
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee..... Her racism is out in the open. No codewords for her or Eric (my people) Holder. No codewords needed by Obama as he screws the men who want to build the Excel pipeline who would be 90% white with some Mexicans/Hispanics working on it too. Sorry but I there are not any or many blacks in the oil/energy industry.
don’t worry. by the time Nov comes around Newt will be accused of driving a gas tanker to black churches and burning them, the cross, and wanting to put blacks on the back of the bus.
This is why Newt is winning. He will win white voters big time including independents. When blacks scream racism, many times it is not a legitimate accusation. When white politicians kowtow to the black accusers, the rest of the whites are very pissed off at the false accusation and even more disappointed that a white politician will not stand up to false allegations. Result is anger and frustration until Newt shows up and responds BS!!! Obama’s people had used white racism too much. In a time of high unemployment whites are not in the mood for BS anymore!! Obama and the Dems keep this up they will lose big time in 2012.
These are code words...Ms. (Andrew) Jackson (Robert E.) Lee, a cryptographer you ain’t.
Of course. Food stamps are black. How about fat, twaddling, mindless and criminal?
If the shoe fits...
Sheila Jackson Lee???? Is that the best they can do? That ol’ broad is a laughing stock. Yeah, come on Dems; let Sheila be your spokesperson. Our team would love that.
When did you get back from Mars, Sheila? I was hoping it was a one-way trip.
When ever the left plays one of their cards such as racism, homophobia, sexism, etc., they always have to ‘decode’ statements as to the ‘true’ meaning.
Nonsense.
The left are the most polished bigots on the planet.
For those who forgot, Sheila said our astronauts planted a flag on Mars.
Moon, Mars hey they both start with a "M"
All she knows is the Race card, and she uses it a lot. Her constitutes Lap it up because they are just as dumb as she is.
