President Obama on Friday spoke directly with the Boston police sergeant he had criticized in the arrest of a black Harvard professor in a bid to cool an escalating racial controversy that the president admitted he had helped fuel.
In an unscheduled appearance in the White House press room, Mr. Obama told reporters it was "unfortunate" that his own remarks at a Wednesday night press conference had fed the growing frenzy surrounding the July 16 incident.
Mr. Obama had said that Sgt. James Crowley, who is white, and the Cambridge, Mass., police force had acted "stupidly" in arresting and handcuffing Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. at his own home after receiving a report that someone may have been trying to break into the house.

Stuck on Stupidly
Renowned healthcare and law enforcement expert Obama thinks a totalitarian healthcare system for America would be great but getting arrested for disorderly conduct is institutionalized oppression.
A bazillion unionized government "healthcare" bureaucrats would be telling you if and when and how you can see a doc, which doc, the number of carbon-neutral hamburgers and diet cokes you're allowed to have, while egging granny to go carbon-neutral by offing herself to rid the system of 'waste', but libbies see the Cambridge Police Department as the focus of oppression in the modern world.
Liberals think government is great at running the healthcare, banking, insurance, auto, steel, airline, real estate, retail and energy industries, but terrible with the municipal police gig.
So, during his prime-time "news" conference Wednesday Obama focused like a laser beam on pitching his government-run healthcare plan by . . . insulting a police officer.
Speaking from his vast knowledge about the case, Obama accused Sgt. James Crowley of acting "stupidly" for handcuffing lunatic Harvard prof Henry Louis Gates right in the middle of the 'struggle' over "health care and energy" and despite the two wars "we've got . . . going on." Before taking any action, local police always get briefed on foreign affairs and check with Henry Waxman's committee.
Finally realizing that he was in a hole, Obama on Friday tried to dig even more vigorously by insisting that, based firmly on his lacking the facts, he didn't speak "calibrated" enough about the case. The uncalibrated messiah who wants to calibrate your healthcare explained that he "could have calibrated" the slander "differently". But, calibrating further, he says he stands by his bogus assertion that police overreacted and blew the incident out of proportion when all his chum Gates had done was screamed and yelled and berated and harangued a uniformed police officer as part of a normal ritual called "being a Democrat".
Displaying his deft touch with police, the nut professor had followed Sgt Crowley out the front door and onto the porch, where he continued to scream and yell. Showing he had brushed up on the case, Obama interpreted this as Crowley "pulling Gates out of his home." Officers responding to a reported burglary at a home with a burglary history should assume the erratically behaving suspect forcing his way inside must be the owner. Do not ask for proper ID if he's black, not even real nicely, because that's racial profiling and therefore a barbaric thought crime!
Letting his "post-racial" mask slip and stupidly showing he's carrying a grudge against whites was Obama's real blunder-oo here. If he hasn't hit his Waterloo, he's off to a great start. All except those dead from the neck up see the halfwit community organizer standing on the racist soapbox in a different light after this "teaching moment" he's saved or created. His poll numbers are 're-calibrating' off a cliff after this stroke of brilliance and it's hard to return to your post-racial shtick while covering for some chap who goes postal at the sight of a white guy with a badge. Even ballerina boy Rahm and crew are having a rough go of damage control after Gates pulled the curtains back on Odumbo's 'post-racialism', showing his unfathomable distance from it. To top it all, Obama runs around the world apologizing to Muslims for attacking us but he can't 'calibrate' an apology to Sgt. Crowley.
Obama whines that 'cooler heads should have prevailed' but cooler heads did in fact prevail when the cops cuffed the screaming loser and drove him to the station (although a little tasing would've been nice).
Anyway, that's...
My Two Cents...

Apology?....or double talk.
To tell you the truth...I wouldn’t pick up the phone for Obama!!
Oh my God. Is this guy a piece of work or what. I don't know which is worse. His inability to understand cause and effect, or his bizarre third person perspective of his own responsibility.
Send this guy packing. Go home to your racist friends.
Yes, America got a peek behind the mask.

Good post
Hardly
Except for the trouble it would cause him, I wish that Officer would have slammed the phone on that poser.

I would like to hear more from the MSM, especially FOX News, about the recent firing of that Secret Service agent in the White House. Fired, from reports I read, for complaining about the racist remarks continually made against whites by Michelle and others. I can’t imagine the repercussions if the Bush family had made such remarks about blacks...

Let me clarify that statement... hussama is a racist muzzie commie radical and acolyte of satan... that about covers it.

Surrounded every day by the portraits of old, dead white men - it must be like nails on a chalkboard to these racist rabble rousers.
