Black scholar agrees to beer with Obama, policeman
Sat Jul 25, 2009 2:24pm EDT
 


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A prominent black Harvard University scholar has accepted an invitation to have a beer with President Barack Obama and the white police officer who arrested him in a racially charged case.

Professor Henry Louis Gates said Saturday he was willing to have a peace-making beer with Obama and Cambridge, Massachusetts, police Sgt. James Crowley.

Gates was arrested last week at his home after a neighbor called police to say that a man was breaking into the house. Obama said Cambridge police had "acted stupidly," prompting an outcry from police groups and a resulting media blitz.

Obama later telephoned both men and, on Crowley's suggestion, invited the two to the White House for a beer.

"I am pleased that he, too, is eager to use my experience as a teaching moment, and if meeting Sgt. Crowley for a beer with the president will further that end, then I would be happy to oblige," Gates said in a statement on TheRoot.com, an Internet newsletter he edits.

Gates said he hoped his arrest would help reduce racial profiling by law enforcement agencies.

Would this be even necessary if Barry just shut the hell up in the first place and never commented.  U think this is a good thing TA? Barry is a moron, he let this go on and on and on....Its a non-story he let get away.

It is a good thing.  Gates and the Policeman, Crowley can meet face to face and both admit how each went a bit too far.  This is great symbolism for the rest of the country as well.

I thing this is a good way to halt the escalation of this whole event.  The president never should have gave his uninformed opinion on the matter but this is a good way to close it.

Hopefully this teaches people to comply with reasonable police requests and stop yelling racism all the time, just as much as it makes us aware of the need not to racial profile.

This had nothing to do with racial profiling.  The facts always seem to get in the way of these race pimps.

U think this is a good thing TA?

You should like this.
Frankly, you should love everything about it.
His first comments are great!
And his attempts to reconcile are an admission of his “acting stupidly.”
Whatever the reason(s) were for his “mistake,” they are inexcusable as Commander-In-Chief.

There’s no redeeming way for him to explain his comments:
“I was misinformed.”
“I was uninformed.”
“I spoke inappropriately.”
“I’m anti-police.”
“I’m anti-white.”
“I’m all of the above.”

FFS you’re the president!
I guarantee O’s not the first pres to have these kinds of feelings.
But even if you are all of those above things, how about a F_CKING FILTER?

First/impulsive declarations are almost always the most honest and accurate.
Multiple, duplicating occurrences are the confirmation.
This isn’t the first time he’s stuck his foot in his mouth concerning something that could be regarded as “racial” and/or “discriminatory.”
It won’t be the last.

But instances such as these are providing us a fantastic glimpse as to the real kind of human being who is running the U.S.
It won’t matter, though.
Even if the people who were too blind to see it during the campaign figure it out now, it’s too little/too late.



QED:
I’ve spoken to several people in various parts of the medical field who are practically filling their pants at the prospect of nationalized healthcare. And most of them voted for O.
And other people (outside the medical field) I know who voted for him are also throwing a fit about this.
WTF?
Historically, democrats have always been the ones aiming for nationalized healthcare. So now that we finally have a dem in the White House, why are these same people acting so f_cking astonished that he’s pushing for this? Wasn’t that obvious in the months leading up to election night?


O criticized a section of people in my state of “clinging to their guns and religion.”
Well, I don’t know what religion O is, but the faith of most people in the part of PA he chastised is Christianity.
O’s accusation seems to suggest that HE believes religion/Christianity is a bad thing.
Let’s see…
Do not kill,
Do not steal,
Do not lie,
Respect thy mum and dad…
Yeah, those are all horrible ideals. ::)
I guess O is steadfast against them.
Too bad. Those are principles that any person of any faith should appreciate.

And if respectful, moral people have guns, what’s to fear there? :-\


I know it’s gonna take years to undue the shit the last asshole did, but so far, this asshole’s gotten us further into debt, faster, with bailouts, stimulus packages – and other things on which we’ll never see a return – and the next projects on his agenda don’t look too hot, either.
There is change - but it's in the wrong direction.

But what kills me the most is the number of people who seem to be catching on now - the people who tell me they wouldn’t have voted for O if they’d known all of this ahead of time.
Well, I’ve got news for you.
Nothing here is a surprise after his campaign.
And if you didn’t see it then, then either you’re not smart enough to vote, or you cast your vote to spite the other party.
And don’t give me that shit that McCain was another "W."
Trust me, NOBODY could be that bad.

Maybe it’s time that citizens should have to pass some kind of an aptitude/intelligence test (or something) to be granted the right to vote – as if that would ever happen.
Maybe that would nullify people like a former manager of mine who said she “would vote for John Edwards because he’s cute.”


Or maybe I'm just blowing smoke. ;D
Peace.
