Kentucky GOP Congressman Calls Obama “boy”

Unprecedented in my lifetime, for a member of the US Congress to call another one, who is black, “boy.”

“I’m going to tell you something: That boy’s finger does not need to be on the button. He could not make a decision in that simulation that related to a nuclear threat to this country.”  

This occurred at something called the Lincoln Day Dinner.

I wonder what Abraham Lincoln, whose Illinois Senate seat is now held by a man named Barack Obama, would think of this behavior by Republican politicians.

UPDATE: Davis isn’t the only GOP politician still trying to get favor from white supremacists.
