Of course Obama's race baiting. He can't run on the economy. Can't run on energy policies. Can't run on foreign policies. Obama has nothing to run on so he pulls out the magic race card.

Based on the president’s early formulations of standard fellow-traveling apologetics, he couldn’t say anything else.

According to one report I seen in FRs the kid laid in the morgue for 3 days before his body was claimed. In another report the shooter was being assulted by the kid who had him on the ground verified by an eye wittness and testified that to the local cops.

I now truly feel that the Race-baitor-in-Chief is an out and out racist by the way that he can’t help himself to always go out of his way to exploit a blackman’s situation into ‘victim-hood’ when the situation involves another person of different color.

Mr. President? How about the black kids that have been killed by other black kids in Philadelphia, New York, Chicago EVERY WEEK?

Republican White House hopeful Mitt Romney called for a "thorough investigation" into Martin's death.

Witness: Martin attacked Zimmerman

Updated: Friday, 23 Mar 2012, 6:19 PM EDT

ORLANDO - A witness we haven’t heard from before paints a much different picture than we’ve seen so far of what happened the night 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was shot and killed.

..”And from that moment to the shooting, details are few.

But one man’s testimony could be key for the police.

“The guy on the bottom who had a red sweater on was yelling to me: ‘help, help…and I told him to stop and I was calling 911,” he said.

Trayvon Martin was in a hoodie; Zimmerman was in red.

The witness only wanted to be identified as “John,” and didn’t not want to be shown on camera.

His statements to police were instrumental, because police backed up Zimmerman’s claims, saying those screams on the 911 call are those of Zimmerman.

“When I got upstairs and looked down, the guy who was on top beating up the other guy, was the one laying in the grass, and I believe he was dead at that point,” John said.

Zimmerman says the shooting was self defense. According to information released on the Sanford city website, Zimmerman said he was going back to his SUV when he was attacked by the teen.

Sanford police say Zimmerman was bloody in his face and head, and the back of his shirt was wet and had grass stains, indicating a struggle took place before the shooting.”

If the races involved in the incident were reversed, would that son still look like Obama?

Obama stepped in it with the comments he made about race and now his campaign has to go on the offense against the GOP for calling him out on it.

The GOP called him on it? When'd that happen? I must have missed it.

I’m still waiting for some “reporter” to pose that question.
Murder is rampant in Chicago...his home town. Those parents should be asking that question. What about their sons?? Where the outrage for them?????

Not that it matters; but the shooter doesn't even look white.

Obama wants to start a race war so he can declare martial law and suspend the elections

I don’t think that’s true, I think it was more like 12 hours or so.

What this whole affair really shows is the bankruptcy of our modern journalism establishment. Why haven’t they put together a solid summary of events? Every one I’ve seen is lacking in major, known information, much of it available on the City of Sanford’s web site.

He’s good at instigating violence while looking like he really cares about uniting.
No difference between him and Jesse.

Or Islamic. Muslims can do whatever they want, and even if the incident happens to be ‘reported’, which is rare, the nature of the perps will be omitted or disguised.

Youths, Asians, Extremists, are some of the favorite code-words for Muslims but there are more. Muslims have assumed that dubious category where they are just so far crazy violent and out of normal decent behavior, that it is somehow racist even to record or report anything they say or do for some reason. I don't understand it.

It is actually complimentary to Whites that they are attacked so viciously by the media. The media has the expectation that Whites will behave in a normal, decent, adult, and moral way. Whenever they don't, the media considers this to be news.

The media has no expectation of decent behavior from other minorities. When a minority kills another minority, it is considered a ‘dog bites man’ story and is not ‘worthy’ of coverage. When a White behaves one time, in the identical way minorities do every single day, all hell breaks loose and it is covered in every new outlet in the world.

Kinda cool, really...in a way.

Obama could commit a human sacrifice on national tv, and he would still get 95%+ of the black vote.
