It didn't work, Obama flubbed using it politically, and most support the officer.

If not he would be screaming RACISM to the high heavens presently.

I heard that the second guy in the house was his limo driver.

Yup, Gates is a Limo Liberal.

Absurd for President Obama to have gotten involved in the first place.

True the Pres. pottied in his own mess gear as we used to say in the Marine Corps.

Gates was in China days prior to the arrest researching the geneology of famed cellist Yo-Yo Ma.

Question to Gates: How about studying the geneology of Barack Obama and perhaps tracking down that original birth certificate at some point??

The President is a black marxist that assumes the officer was "acting stupidly" because he was white.

Gates wants to "move on" because he knows there is a good potential that the Police have an audio of his rants and he...and Obama...do not want it heard.

IMHO, one of the most revealing thing about the issue with Gates is that he is so clearly another person and instance of a pattern that fits Obama's other "close friends".

Racist, hate filled, angry, people who detest traditional America and the free market and whose seething hatred is only just below the surface...and in some cases always out in the open. Frank Davis, Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, Jeremiah Wright, Henry Louis Gates, even his own wife, Michelle (by her own admission)...and the list goes on and on.

There is a clear pattern here that the MSM not only knows, but refuses to report. And that is because most of them share this hatred.

Obama and all those pushing his radical agenda are abject marxist ideologues. Their "fundamental; change" is nothing more than a destruction of the American free market and fundamental republican principle.

Too Late, Bubba Gates.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We found THIS story:
http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=104928

JERUSALEM – The lawyer representing Henry Louis Gates Jr., the Harvard professor at the center of a national race controversy, was a mentor of both Barack and Michelle Obama and served on the president’s black advisory council.

Charles Ogletree Jr., himself a Harvard University professor, is closely linked to the Black Panthers and to radical black ideology.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And now, 0bama’s been outed as a Radical Black Ideologist, at the least.

This is getting good. Keep talkin’ y’all. From out of the heart, the mouth speaks. And Y’0bama been layin’ it on us gooooooooood with words like “stupid.”

"in the end, this is not about me at all."

Now where have I heard that one before ... ? Sounds like Gates is borrowing talking points from Mr. Obama. They must have had a good chat.

Liberals are expert in dishing out rectal exams on Conservatives. Their absolute favorite tactic is the politics of personal destruction as demonstrated on Sarah Palin and Joe the Plumber. In order to preserve our country and our freedom, it has become an absolute necessity to use their tactics on them. How much dirt and corruption can be exposed immediately and used publicly to educate the masses?

And this was his intention all along. He took the playbook right out of the flying Imams’s hands.

Let’s not; let us always remember this P.O.S. and how he tried to end the career of a decent working white man through malicious deceit.

LOL. That’s funny - thanks for the laugh. And this is a Harvard Professor? Although I think Mr. Burns would probably object to being called “Robbie”.:)

He got “confused” the Shakespeare phrase is as follows and is from Romeo and Juliet. Any high school kid would know this.

“What’s in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;”

It sure sounds like he’s being fed language by the Obama “not about me” administration.
