I was just listening to Sgt. Crowley on WBZ in Boston. He made a great point, which no one has picked up on.
Sgt. Crowley said that when he first spoke with Prof. Gates, he told him that there was a report phoned in to the Cambridge Police that 2 men were seen breaking into the house. Since Sgt. Crowley only saw Prof. Gates, he told the Prof that the 2 perps might still be in the house, and he'd like to check it out for everyone's safety (or something like that.)
Crowley was trying to protect Gates. Gates flies off the handle, and the rest is history.
Sgt. Crowley would be more than welcomed in my house any time. Kudos for doing your job.
Amen Paul!
"Here's my ID and the phone bill I just got.
Want a beer?
"skippy" Gates is the WEB DuBois Black studies scholar.WEB DuBois was a committed Marxist racist.
WEB DuBois was a member of the Communist Party.
My take on Gates is that he is a Marxist racist agitator
looking for some street "Creds".also see WEB DuBois CV
How in the world did this question come up during a presser on health care? Did Lynn Sweet come up with it on her own, do you think? Was she told to ask about it?
This is why I never lock my door. Of course, I don’t live in Cambridge.
And here comes Obama... making friends wherever he goes... by going off half-cocked and blurting out whatever comes to his tiny mind... (Oops! Was that a racist comment?)
Notice how Obama said Sgt Crowley was stupid and racist for just trying to do his job but did not say anything about Gates’s screaming at the top of his lungs, threatening the officer and insulting the officers mother being stupid and racist. It must be that Obama thinks that is the way African Americans should act. Look at Obama’s friends Rev Wright and Louis Farrakhan.
Gates is coming across as a RACE BAIT idiot! Obama is coming across ... as a Send a shout out to his black buddies.... and knows nothing about facts. This all comes back to his sitting under REV Jeramiah... BS!!!!
Never waste a crisis
From now on, I’ll think of the distinguished Harvard scholar as Rat Trap Gates, because he’s so easy to set off.
Juan Williams said on Fox News last night that it is the policeman’s job to make certain that the home is secure and safe. The LEO does not know what’s going on in there until he/she goes in and looks around. This man was doing his job—in the face of someone verbally dragging his mother into the fray. Sounds to me like he showed extraordinary patience while doing his job.
Lynn says she came up with it on her own.
She has reported “news” in Chicago for years. Is well aware of bHo’s thuggish racist attitude and his inablility to think without a teleprompter. Knowing he was just running on and on and would open his mouth and eventually insert foot, she baited him.
Sgt. Crowley was just being a typical white cop. Asking questions. Doing a proper investigation. Not leaving until he was satisfied that no laws were being broken and no one was in physical danger. This type of behavior by the police just has to STOP! (s/)
Are you saying that another one of zer0's, ahem, "associates" is a Marxist, racist thug?
What is this supposed to mean?
Say it isn't so!!
Good find :)
Sweet had the last question and the perfect opportunity to call him out on one of his health care lies. Instead we get this distraction which I believe was a set up.
Thanks for the background on this. I give Sweet a high five on this!
