This Is Post-Racial?
IBD Editorials ^ | July 23, 2009 | INVESTORS BUSINESS DAILY Staff

Leadership: Barack Obama promised a new "post-racialism." But when a black pal was arrested by a white policeman for disorderly conduct, the president's response was pure old race politics. So which is it?

Gates is a personal friend of Zerobama, and by replying to the reporters question with that the police department acted foolishly and then admitting that he was not familiar with the situation.

I can not imagine President Bush acting that way. He would have said Professor is a personal friend of mine. I think it would not be approbate to comment at this time

But you can expect this of the FOTUS

“Barack Obama promised a new “post-racialism.”

It really drives me crazy that anybody believes these filthbuckets.

Zippy the Pinhead, even Forrest Gump’s dumber little brother, should be smarter than that.

Hussein is a joke, even more so w/o his teleprompter.

I like the fact that he spent an hour trying to sell his socialist health care scheme and in less than a minute he made the following day's headline not about health care but about his having stuck his foot in his mouth over an entirely different subject. Priceless!

The illegitimate president knows as little about this case as he knows what’s in the healthcare package. I believe his finger should be pointing back to himself when he calls “stupid”.

The Kenyan Imposter had a bad night. He doomed his health care takeover and showed the nation that he is an anti white racist. tsk tsk

I think we’ve seen the last of his press conferences.

Heck, since Obama is now mixing it up with the White Folks, he has to show the Blacks he's still one of them, so he played the race card.

He should have kept his trap shut, being that Gates is a personal friend of him and secondly that he was unfamiliar with the whole thing. He is not the POTUS, but the FOTUS. (Fool Of The United States

I am beginning to think that 0bama played the race card on purpose (as opposed to a freudian slip) in an attempt to make sure the black community continues to back him up as his poll numbers drop,

Our fraud of a President is a racist, and he got that way from sitting under another racist named Rev. Wright for 20 years preaching his black liberation theology. Who consider sin the root source of poverty, believing sin as exploitative capitalism and class war by the rich against the poor.

Click the link and see what the gentleman from Harlem has to say about mixing it up with the white folks. This is James David Manning on a real tear, astounding.

I have been reading the IBD editorials the last few months and must say they are among the best in the media. Refreshingly conservative.

All right thinking people look forward to that blessed day when black men will be free, free at last to break into apartments without police asking to see their identification.

I will tell you you a personal story about the way the police handle a burglary

I worked at small company until I got layed off yesterday. I worked in a IT data center in an overnight shift. We got a new burglar alarm system in January. A few days later after setting the alarm at 11 PM and locking the doors, the alarm went off. The state police arrived and rang the front bell. I can be seen from the front door through main entrance in the computer room. There are glass windows in the room providing anybody arriving to see me at my work station. I answered the officer with my company badge and drivers license in hand for identity. He parked his cruiser blocking my car for any exit. I let him in and he checked my credentials. He said he already knew my name from plate check. He proceeded to call my license number to headquarters on his belt talkie. I am clean and have nothing to hide. I invited him in and showed him the codes from the alarm. It showed that there may be a breech in a window in the rear building.I led him to the rear building showing him that I knew the alarm code. We inspected the area and did not find anybody. Went back to my area at the front of the main building. He told me to come out side with him and took my license again and called headquarters. They called the VP's son who did odd jobs in the building and grounds. It was 1 AM on a Sunday morning. Jeff showed up and vouched for me and the cop was satisfied. He let me go back to my job and left. At no time I gave the cop any attitude. He had his job to do and I gave him respect and he thanked me for my cooperation. He said he had to follow procedures.

I remember when I was 13 in 1971, we were trespassing on the water company watershed. I was skimming rocks on the pond. A cruiser pulled up and we ran. The cop told us to stop. We stopped. The cop gave us a lecture to never run from the police, you could get shot.

You got it, but if the arrogant mealy-mouthed lying pos had any smarts, he would have thought about the question and relied with Professor Gates is a personal friend of mine and since I know very little about the situation it would be wrong for me to make a comment.

Instead he put his foot in his mouth and made a total fool of himself
