“Was the Sandra Fluke circus an Obama diversion to get the public’s attention away from other pending issues?”

Many believe that this month old incident is being used by Obama just as he did with Fluke.

Obama and his race baiter assistants in the media are using this as just another way to divert attention from high gas prices and other pressing economic issues.

MSM seems to not report that Zimmerman is Hispanic with roots to Peru. Guess they don’t want to lose the Latino vote, IMO.

Once again Newt shows why he is the Man in this race - what have Mitt or Rick said about this?

Obama declared Friday that if he had a son, he would be Malik Zulu Shabazz.

It’s clear that this is a contrived story. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised to discover shortly this story was a planned formula just waiting for a catalyst.

The shooting provided the catalyst the race baiting blacks thought they wanted. This will very likely blow up right in their faces.

The pictures of the dead guy are not representative of a 6’4” football player who was in peak condition. I guess what Obama meant about looking like his son was that “They all look alike to me?”.

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

That's right. Which is why the President spoke reflexively on this matter, as he does about so much else.

Not that such a standard has ever been applied to Obama, or will ever be, but the President has a duty in his role as a unique representative of all the American people to counsel respect for the rule of law and faith in our justice system; to speak calmly when intemperate passions might otherwise be inflamed by thoughtless words or ideological preening.

If Obama's object were to calm raw nerves and soothe tempers, he missed his opportunity. Yet, on the basis of his past words and deeds, I doubt his intentions were quite so salubrious.

Looked that way to me.
But again; it really shouldn’t matter the race of either one.

BO was taught by professional race-hustlers how to manipulate the ignorant for political gain. The real reason he has engaged this incident is to dump more fuel on the race-war potential. If Bo fails to steal the election, the hive of africans and his communities of illiterates will erupt in every city and town in the country. They are being primed for Bo’s obsession with punishing whitey.
