No More Sister Souljahs

I agree with Publius:

I keep hearing that Nutsgate is a “Sister Souljah moment” for Obama. Frankly, it’s annoying me. First – it’s not a Sister Souljah moment at all. Second – I’m sick of that term. It’s time to retire the Sister Souljah label altogether. It’s inaccurate, and even borderline racist.
Normally I'm opposed to appending "-gate" to the ends of words whenever there's a scandal, but referring to the Jesse Jackson controversy as "Nutsgate" is just brilliant.

It could also be referred to as DeezGate.
