Tom,

Uncle Tom (tm)
n. Offensive

A Black person who is regarded as being humiliatingly subservient or deferential to white people.

My question is where does Chris, Rich or anyone else get the moral authority to make that determination? What are the attributes of an Uncle Tom (to them)?

1.) Going to graduate school?

2.) Being chosen for a top position in a Republican administration.

3.) Working in the financial district?

4.) Voting conservative?

5.) Refusing to "stay put" in the "hood" where they can be counted on to vote Democrat.
