LOL, that'll be a trick since Cochran is dead.
Holy cow - he’s been dead for 4 years. How did I miss that?
“...there is more to the story...the other guy who was with Gates. Perhaps the guy was Gates’ “down low” lover or his drug dealer, or both.”
My thoughts exactly. Let’s hope the National Enquirer gets to the bottom of this. (I’m not being sarcastic.)
It seems that Gates verbally abused the officer in his home, so then the officer lured him outside and got him for disorderly conduct after Gates continued his verbal abuse outside. Nice work!
If they can’t get the cop on some legal charge, they’ll just charge him with violating Gates’ civil rights.
Any bets on how long it’ll take Je$$e and Al to show up?
After all, as Obama implied in his news conference that Gates must be right, because, as Obama said, ‘there’s a long history of racial discrimination against blacks and latinos in this country’.
What struck me about the news conference was that Obama prefaced his remarks by saying he didn’t have all the facts (after he described in detail what Gates had told him), so he couldn’t say for sure, then proceeded to side with his buddy “Skip” Gates accusing the cops (all but explicitly) of racism.
I thought his comments were beneath the dignity of his office. But then he’s nothing but an extreme, EXTREME example of the Peter Principle applied to community organizing.
Congratulations, America, on your "historic" election.
When Gates finally provided his ID it could have ended there, but instead the scumbag followed the officer outside and slurred him in plain view and earshot of the gathering crowd. The cop would have looked guilty of racism (as well as like a pansy) if he had just walked away from the scumbag and it would have sent the message to the crowd that you can brazenly slur an on-duty cop in public anytime you feel like it.
The cop was left with no choice but to arrest the scumbag, IMO.
This report needs to go national, and people need to know what a racist pr*ck this guy really is, especially to his audience of young black men, whom he's trying to beguile.
I liked the one where Kramer sued the tobacco company, and upon seeing the billboard, Jackie Chile says something like this is the most public of my many humiliations
That was a great show. I still watch it when I can even though I've seen the episodes dozens of times.
Are you drunk? He be a hero to the yoots...
Obviously this Gates fellow is an a-hole, but being an a-hole on your own property is not a crime.
...come again?
Never mind, I figured out what you were referring to.
*****
Let me see if I have this straight.
1. On the one hand, we have the President of the United States, Obama, take valuable national news conference time to severely criticize---acted "stupidly" I think Obama said--- the police for treating his Harvard friend badly and arresting him just a few days ago.
2. On the other hand, the President of the United States, Obama, will not even discuss in over a year why he won't give Hawaii permission to release his long form birth certificate and why he won't discuss why he won't give Occidental, Columbia, and Harvard permission to release his college records.
3. Are my statements above correct? I believe so.
I'd question why the above were ignored (including Boston's Mayor (D) and the state Governor (D)) and the issue be included in a national broadcast about the need for the immediate passage of a National Health Care "package"?
I recall reading that the good Prof was detained for failure to provide identification.
Where have I heard that before?
I was wondering about the second guy, too. Maybe this was all meant as a distraction.
Gates wasn’t in his own house. He followed the police out onto the street and to their squad car, screaming at them.
I was amazed at Obama’s response to this in his (yawn) presser last night.
