Barack Obama: Trayvon Martin wasn't perfect
Orlando Sentinel ^ | 8//7/13 | Hal Boedeker

Posted on 08/07/2013 5:15:54 PM PDT by Nachum

President Barack Obama discussed Edward Snowden, the health care law, Hillary Clinton and Russia during a Tuesday visit to "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno." But Obama´s comments about the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin had special local interest. George Zimmerman was acquitted last month of murder in the teen´s death in Sanford. Some Americans have criticized Obama previously for commenting on the issue, but Leno said that the president had spoken eloquently and from the heart about Trayvon´s death. "I think all of us were troubled by what happened," Obama told Leno.

He may not be perfect but he’s sure a lot better now than he was in January, 2012.

The only thing that troubled me was the way they tried to hang Zimmerman.

Zimmerman did Florida a favor.

Obama....."We all know young African-American men disproportionately have involvement in criminal activities and violence for a lot of reasons,"

If he really cared about black youth...he would tell black women to get married first and then have kids...

Almost all of the issues in the black community can be traced back to the breakup of the family

So, what does he have to say about the four Americans who were killed at Benghazi? The a**hole is obsessed with Trayvon Martin.

Trayvon was a thug. White hoods are illegal— Black hoods should therefore be the same. This pot smoking thief was kicked out of school (which he and his fat girlfriend , Jeantel) badly needed and was living with his daddy’s MISTRESS lurking around gated communities looking for any opportunity. Zimmerman is a national hero.

Obama refers to Saint Skittles of Sanford in less than a perfect way, and the Miami media ignores!!

This means the Trayvon canonization isn't polling well for the clown. The "boost" it gives him in the urban community isn't as beneficial as the "decline" it gives him in the rest of the public.

Guess who goes under the bus next?!

Good guy exonerated.

No trouble.

"I think all of us were troubled by what happened," Obama told Leno.

The ONLY thing that troubled me regarding the death of Trayvon Martin was the politicizing of an obvious self-defense case that should never have resulted in charges, and that Obozo didn't keep his mouth shut from the start.

He was so far from perfect that it isn’t even funny.

I’m only “troubled” by the Political Show Trial caused by Pharaoh Obama’s getting involved with a local issue simply because the Thug was Black and the Guy who was attacked wasn’t.

Kind of reminds me of Obama’s involvement with another Political Prosecution when he let FOUR Americans DIE for no apparent reason. Enter Susan Rice, the Liar’s designated Liar who ends up getting promoted for her efforts.

The rest as they say is history, except for the Video maker rotting in Jail while the Obama’s vacationed on the Taxpayer’s dime.
