that powerful obama mojo at work.

[keepitreal]

He might have said he regrets jumping to conclusions to Crowley, but he told the press that Crowley overreacted.

[screaminsunshine]

Amazing...The President of the United States has to call up a beat cop on the phone to try to save face. Is this guy real??? This is a new low. MY GOD get him the hell out of the White House. He will get us all killed. Pathetic!!

[johniegrad]

I suspect the “veteran Cambridge police officer” who requested anonymity has gone over.

[Galtoid]

I question what Zero REALLY said to this officer. I also question any reporting of it in any newspaper or any television station.

[kjo]

What IS becoming clear...is that Obama may say ANYTHING when he’s off the teleprompter...Emaneul and Axelrod must lose sleep over this fact.

He’s not fast on his feet...he says a lot of stupid things...there will be more to come.

This guy is affirmative action all the way.

Our beer....

He just used the wrong calibration in insulting the police.

“I want to make clear that in my choice of words, I think, I unfortunately, I think, gave an impression that I was maligning the Cambridge police department or Sergeant Crowley specifically. And I could have calibrated those words differently. And I told this to Sergeant Crowley.”

Dudester, Irish Catholic Cops From Massachusetts have Democrat DNA.

“Jimmy said, ‘I’d be happy to come to the White House and sit down with you and Gates and have a beer,’

...nah. Too manly for BO. A white wine spritzer or banana daquiri perhaps, but never anything so neanderthal as beer!

[mckenzie7]

Now the NATION needs to hear from Obama that he rashly rushed to judgement on a case that he was ill informed of!

He maligned more than just one police officer!

[b4its2late]

Notice, he only offered a beer. As Rush said why not kobe beef?

[Boardwalk]

Can Joe the Plumber come too?

[DogBarkTree]

[editor-surveyor]

Lobotomy.

[johniegrad]

Isn’t assuming a white, Irish cop wants a beer racist?

[bigbob]

Well the good news is, every time he screws up like this he doesn’t apologize or whatever until after the fan has splattered it all over the place. The damage has been done.

[IbJensen]

I wouldn’t be pleased by a telephone call from the Imbecile in Chief, nor would I welcome an invitation to come to the WH for a beer.

[isthisnickcool]

Obama seems to act a lot like a crack head.
