Will never happen.
Drama queen Gates was low on money, so he totally orchestrated this little performance in hopes of getting some cold cash in this racial litigation scam.
If the cop doesn’t tell Zero off, and tell Gates what an ass he is, the cop is a ball-less P.O.S.
The kinda guy, in a word, the likes handing out speeding tickets because there’s no risk there...
Not unless I was wearing a wire.
It will be a learning experience for all us dumb peckerwoods.
It’s not as if Crowley really has a choice. It has always been rather an imperative to accept an invitation to the White House, regardless of who its resident may be and the invitee’s personal feelings for said office holder. It’s just part of living in a ‘civil’ society.
Not that it will, but the best thing that could come of this is if they got Gates to spend a day a week for the next year or so riding a shift in a patrol car. Let him see it from the PD perspective. He could even write a book about his experience. Maybe Crowley could then teach a class at Harvard.
In the first place, I was hoping there was some way for Sgt. Crowley to get out of this. I think he is in a bind now and must accept the invitation....after all, he is going to be watched closely by the Cambridge PD, and refusing the invite would be a reflection on the entire department and I am sure he is too much of a man to do that. On the other hand while meeting with 2 racists, I hope Sgt. Crowley holds his own, represents his PD well and does not let either of these 2 put anything over on him.
It would be interesting if the get together will be broadcast, so as not to let either of these 2 spin it in a way that they come out as non-racist.
If these two do not apologize directly to Sgt. Crowley for their actions (Gates) and words (0bama) then this whole thing will be nothing more than a photo op setup.
It looks like he is going and I’m dissapointed but not surprised. I think the incident hurt Obama at least a little and that is a good thing. So f-ing po’d at the media right now.
Congrats Sergeant, you are now a tool of the Dear Leader.
Great job giving up your self respect Officer.
Kind of reminds me of Lindsey Graham folding on the Sotomayer vote today. Another clueless tool of the Statists.
What kind of Hollywood BS is this?!??! Doesn't Obama have anything better to do? Apparently, this POTUS thin is getting a bit boring for such an intellectual giant!
NOT IN A MILLON YEARS....
Hell no. Obama is going to drag Gates an Crowley in front of the press. Gates will offer his hand an say I am sorry IF YOU ARE !!
Crowley loses an is made the racist fool no matter what he does at that point.
Crowley needs to maintain his proffessionalism an go back to work today !!
How come Gate’s butt buddy is not being invited? He’s not out of the closet yet? Haven’t heard a WORD about him anywhere. BTW, that’s why Gates was SO PO’d, they got interrupted.
Pilsner or Bock?
The same black racist president of the USA who said Sgt Crowley acted stupidly and racially profiled Gates, turns around and asks him to drink beer and rub shoulders with both of his accusers. HE would have to be very fooligh to walk into this den of vipers. No telling how much coertion, “promises” of swift promotion, etc and or direct and indirect threats and pressure will be put on him to lay off, change his story or drop the thing all together.
I’m willing to bet that you’re going to see a couple of black men doing some serious white butt kissing before this happy little beer bust is over. IF they don’t the police unions are going to keep the pressure on the Prez until he does apologize! I think the prof owes Crowley an apology too.
How about calling it “The Black & White & Red-All-Over” House?
