It’s time for Obama to throw Gates under the bus.

[DirtyDawg]

I think we all know who has acted “stupidly” Barry no don’t we

[Jagdgewehr]

'The President has alienated public safety officers across the country by his comments,' said David Holway, president of the International Brotherhood of Police Officers, which represents 15,000 public security officials.

Thank you for that insight fat-cat union guy. The rest of us were already "alienated" by -8bama long before this incident.

[Safrguns]

The officer should have cuffed Gates mouth... thats what got him in trouble.

I heard Hannity read the full incident from the police report.

This guy was ASKING to be arrested!

[trisham]

This guy was ASKING to be arrested!

That appears to have been his intent, yes.

which represents 15,000 public security officials.

15,000 Opossum voters who will dutifully pull the lever for him in 2012.

Opossum knows it and, in reality, doesn’t care becuase he can replace those 15,000 with infinitely more race-baiter votes from the ACORN-mentored teenagers eligible to vote for the first time on 2012.

There’s goes the vacay with AA elites, including Gates, in Oak Bluffs, Martha’s Vineyard.

The Obamas would (almost) blend in among Oak Bluffs’ black elite

If Barack Obama and his family decide to summer in Oak Bluffs, as the Boston Globe reports they are considering, they would enjoy not just pristine beaches, but a social scene that includes some of the nation’s most successful black artists, thinkers and entrepreneurs.

Obama’s longtime mentor, Harvard law professor Charles Ogletree, has a home in Oak Bluffs. So, too, do Washington power broker Vernon Jordan (the great uncle of Obama friend and adviser Valerie Jarrett), filmmaker Spike Lee and former HHS Secretary Dr. Louis Sullivan.

Asking to be arrested and HOPING the officer would, in some way, become physical with him

[MEGoody]

Obama stupidly opened his mouth before he had a clue about the issues surrounding this arrest. Unfortunately for Americans, ZerO seems to have a habit of forming opinions and policy without understanding the facts.

[bk1000]

Obama was right. How dare a white officer arrest a black man? He should have known that you just don’t do that in Obamaworld.

[Bluebird Singing]

“cooler heads should have prevailed” says obama.

He is still accusing the white officer.

He is never wrong. obama is a narcissist. He would rather fan the flames of racism than face the fact that the sheeple are beginning to see the real obama . . .

From now on, the racists are out to get him. He will never admit to himself that he’s not fit for the Presidency. It’s racist America’s fault.

Narcissistic injury leads to narcissistic rage. Watch out.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Cooler heads did prevail, Mr Obama. The calm and professional Sgt. Crowley properly placed the hysterical hot head under arrest. Your friend is a loose cannon.

[Captain Kirk]

A free American citizen has a right to argue with a cop without being arrested. This is America, not the Soviet Union (or at least used to be). Flame away.

>>Cooler heads did prevail, Mr Obama. The calm and professional Sgt. Crowley properly placed the hysterical hot head under arrest. Your friend is a loose cannon.<<

That was exactly my “silent” answer to Obama’s ignorant - and stupid - comment.

Me thinks Zero is having a very bad month. Can you have multiple Waterloo’s at the same time?

[RobRoy]

>>A free American citizen has a right to argue with a cop without being arrested.<<

I firmly agree with that.

I will add, however, that it does not have limits. I read the police report. This guy crossed them, by a wide margin.

A certain president needs to show us his birth certificate and things will go away for him. This guy needed to show his ID for the same reason. But wait, there’s more. He didn’t just refuse. His beligerence was completely over the top. Way over.

He didn’t just “argue”.

[ggrrrrr23456]

FUBO!

[F.J. Mitchell]

Have you read the full report? The Prof was yelling at the top of his voice, screaming that the cop was a raciest. You may argue with a cop, but you cannot abuse them.

[dragnet2]

Obama totally exposed himself the other night, and revealed exactly who he is.

This guy is really going to regret ever having that news conference.

[F.J. Mitchell]

We can hope. ;)
