new racist "code" words

The gods of political correctness have struck again. It seems new word and phrases are now "racist code words".

Among these are:

Community Organizer
Skinny
Arrogant
Elitist

And (my personal favorite)

Black hole

Can we get a constantly updated list of what words offend people? It's getting harder and harder to keep up.

And what do you think about lipstick on a pig?

(I honestly had never heard this 'common' saying.)

I have heard of "Casting pearls before swine." Lipstick on a pig is a new one, I have not read that much up on how the statement was used so I can't say one way or the other yet. I will let ya know tho.
