Remarks against Obama probed
Durham police conducting internal investigation; chief says it wasn't a slur

Stanley B. Chambers Jr., Staff Writer

DURHAM - Derogatory remarks toward President-elect Barack Obama made on a social networking Web site are now the subject of an internal police investigation. A police department employee claims the statements were made on the MySpace pages of two Durham officers.

"There's no exact words that were said," said Police Chief Jose L. Lopez Sr. in a telephone interview Wednesday from San Diego, where he is attending the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference. "It wasn't a racial slur, but we're still investigating it."....................

Mr. Obama,

I think you are a Marxist Socialist out to ruin the producers of this nation. You can rot in hell, sir.

There, now come and investigate me.

“if the allegations are found to be true and officers posted racially charged statements, then an appropriate response by the department would be warranted.”

So, if the Democrat party ran a racially charged campaign, would an appropriate response by the Justice department be warranted?

Just askin’.

Which is why, in spite of the fact that for our family’s sake, we would like to have our pension continue from the auto industry, it may be best if GM filed for bankruptcy.

Does this have anything to do with the Sheriff that dared to use ‘The Ones’s’ full name in public?

note that on his adminstration’s “employment application” zerO’s team asks applicants for every alias or handle they ever used on the internet

Looks like there will be plenty of work searching out objectionable opinions and comments about dear leader ...

will Obummer’s personal pajamahadeen be clad in brownshirts or pajamas?

Makes no sense at all. Note to myself: You may want to rethink your dream of moving to N.C. some day.

You're right on that observation! Why, for the past 8 years, the libs (oops--progressives) in my office have called GWB everything derogatory you can imagine--except the "n" word, perhaps--usually when they get into their little supportive gangships.

Well, time may prove disastrous for them if my fears of the Obama-rule comes to fruition. It may take more loss of our liberty before conservatives come to genuine, principled conservatives take back the White House and Congress.

Minor correction—the paper is the Raleigh News & Observer. Durham is next door to Raleigh.

And speaking as a Durham resident...let’s just say that criticism of The Obama is not tolerated here in beautiful Nifongville. Durham County went 76-22 for Obama, the highest of any county in North Carolina. It is owned lock, stock, and barrel by the local reverse-racists of the Democratic Party.

Maybe that’s just most appropriate thing that they can say right now so that they don’t come under some type of investigation.

The Hussein has been insulted. Send his sons to deal with blasphemers.
