Do you remember, during the OJ trial, President Bill Clinton saying "If I had a son he would look like Ron Goldman"?
Do you remember, following the OJ verdict, President Bill Clinton saying "Ron Goldman- that could have been me twenty five years ago"?
Do you remember, in the aftermath of the OJ trial, President Bill Clinton saying "I wonder if the outcome would have been different had Nicole Simpson been black?"
Neither do I.
Obama held a pity party yesterday. In so doing, he took division in this country and ripped it apart even further. He took an open wound and poured salt into it. He pulled off the scab trying to heal.
"You know, when Trayvon Martin was first shot, I said that this could have been my son. Another way of saying that is Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago. And when you think about why, in the African- American community at least, there's a lot of pain around what happened here, I think it's important to recognize that the African- American community is looking at this issue through a set of experiences and a history that -- that doesn't go away."
It could have Obama? Did Obama get suspended three times from high school? Did Obama have stolen jewelry and burglary tools in his backpack? Would Obama have tweeted pictures of his grille? Would Obama have tweeted a picture of a gun? Would Obama have taken a swing at a bus driver?
I'd love to see Obama have to answer those questions.
But let's examine what Obama has done once again- and that is to inject race into an issue that wasn't racially motivated.
The FBI found no evidence that Zimmerman was a racist.
The lead investigator said that the shooting was not based on skin color.
Witnesses told the FBI that Zimmerman is no racist.
Zimmerman mentored black children, stood up for homeless blacks and even voted for Obama.
But none of that matters- not to Obama, not to Sharpton, not to MSNBC.
Despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary Obama feels compelled to make race an issue in this tragedy.
"If a white male teen was involved in the same kind of scenario, from top to bottom, both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different."
I doubt it would have made a bit of difference had a white sucker punched Zimmerman and then proceeded to ground and pound him.
And straw men abound!
"If Trayvon Martin was of age and he was armed, could he have 'stood his ground' on that sidewalk?"
The Zimmerman lawyers did not make use of the Stand Your Ground defense.
The Obama regime took a turn down a very dark road when it set up a website looking for "feedback" about possible civil rights charges against Zimmerman:

That is King Zero's whole intent. It's the reason he ran for President.
So this means that Ghetto Trash is one step below Trailer Trash. Do you remember when a President was a man of integrity and honor?
It's always about Obama. Well, too bad it wasn't Obama 35 years ago! This country would be a hell of alot better off!
hmmm
Obastard's been down that dark road before.
And it will not go away as long as race pimps like Jesse, Sharpton & you keep throwing gasoline on what were the smouldering, nearly cold embers of national racism.
There is not one ounce of leadership or statesmanship, let alone goodness in Barack Obama. If he cannot say and do the right thing, at least have the wisdom and humility to put forward Allen West as his spokesman for this issue.
My loathing of the illegitimate, bisexual, Marxist Kenyan Muslim Usurper requires medication...
Is dark road the same as hershey highway ?
35 years ago, Barack Obama was living as either a wealthy white child in Hawaii or as a wealthy muslim child in Indonesia. So, he couldn’t have been Trayvon.
35 years ago, very few Americans had the right to carry a concealed handgun, so even if Obama had been Trayvon, he wouldn’t have been shot. Back in those days, criminals like Trayvon held all the cards and good people died because of it. This is why Florida led the nation with the first Shall-Issue law because good people got tired of being victims.
>>Well, too bad it wasn’t Obama 35 years ago! This country would be a hell of alot better off!
Kind of reminds you of the old ethics question, “If you could go back in time to kill Adolf Hitler when he was an innocent 6 year old, would you do it?”
I find that offensive. As a volunteer in the FR neighborhood Grammar Patrol, it is my duty to remind you that "alot" should be two words: "a lot". Just don't sucker punch me for keeping my eyes open.
As for the suggestion that we would be a whole lot better off without this particular evil communist racist in our White House, I'm not so sure. The thing that scares me is 65 million votes (from probably 55 million real people) for that druggie, not the particular socialist those voters chose for the job of spreading our wealth around.
It’s what Commie-unity Organizers do best: rabble-rouse and instigate.
Grammar check this:
Grammar check: more than satisfactory.
I’m tired of that narcissist screwing taxpayers, employers, working Americans, gun owners, Christians, the military, neighborhood watch captains, and everyone else who has made the country great.
Obama did what I once considered to be impossible - he made Bill Clinton look classy...
