President Obama says his choice of words unfortunately gave the impression that he was maligning against the Cambridge Police Department.
Obama said, he hopes as a "consequence" that this event becomes a "teachable moment" where people spend more time "listening to each other" and to generally improve relationships between minorities and police officers. Obama said more unity is needed.
Regarding this being a local issue, Obama said he felt like he needed to step in because race is still a "troubling" aspect in our society.

Crowley should ask the Messiah for his birth certificate now that he has standing as Obama slimed him publically.
A-huh.
The “teachable moment” is how weak an individual this pathetic man truly is.
he is being exposed day by day.
“Professor Gates, please wait over there next to Reverend White...” (whispers, “Understand I have to do this... politics you know”)
RACE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS OBAMBI
GATEs SHOULD APOLOGIZE
OBAMA SHOULD APOLOGIZE
RACE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS
“Teachable moment” alright. I hope this teaches BHO to stick to things he knows.. like ‘mom jeans’ at baseball games.
Community organizers are real good at “teachable moments.”
Please Barry please, teach us more.
Teach us how we can all be race hustlers like you.
“Unfortunate?”
What ever, Obama you are a RACIST. It is absolutely clearly apparent.
I still don’t hear an apology, Obamanation.
(Obama said he felt like he needed to step in...)
I must have missed it when he ‘stepped in’ regarding the 40 black punks attacking a white family.
What I am learning from this teachable moment is that we have a president who is half white, half African and zero American.
The only one who has a lesson to be learned is the won himself.
As for the race hustling prof, he is what he is.
A lowlife loudmouth.
Well, HE'S the one who stepped in it, so he's gonna have a hard time extricating himself from the fray.
69 million people voted for Obama. How can he say race is still an issue in America? Good grief, move on from it liberals. We, as conservatives, already have.
I hopes this “teaches” Americans how a lot of blacks in this country have a terrific chip on their shoulder and look for every opportunity possible to exploit the the grievenaces of those legitimately disciminated agianst for their own perverted agenda.

yea right next to where my white grandma was standing.
A teachable moment that some people have a racial chip on their shoulder and jump at the chance to claim victimhood.
“Probably” — there is no teachable moment. All that was revealed in all of this is that ZERO is a racist who hates Whitey even without the facts. Nothing else we need to know. Still didn’t apologize for calling the police stupid and chastize the Prof for acting like a Clymer. “Probably” yeah right!
