Sad thing - the lady who reported the incident and a black cop who was at the scene are receiving threats, being called names, etc. More people were directly harmed than just Crowley.
That's a liberal for you - trying to defend obama's stupidity by attacking those involved in the incident.

Gates apparently sent her flowers.

Love Rudy.

He's right - obama exacerbated the situation by flapping his gums.
You 'love' the man that told his wife he was leaving her at a press conference?????
Yep, he's a fount of wisdom and common sense.

I'm waiting for the explanation for why the police report said that the caller reported seeing two black men, when she didn't say any such thing.

Who's Rudy? A guy once married to his second cousin who couldn't even get past 8 other people in the Republican primary? Oh yeah. That guy.

Sometimes short, sweet and to the point is best, unlike obama, who takes 10 minutes to answer a basic question and who DOES NOT think before opening his pie hole.
What evidence do you have that he doesn't think before speaking? Or is it just that he doesn't say what you want to hear?

Obama is brilliant compared to his predecessor. Like anyone in a position of power and who is subjected to intense media scrutiny, practically any word can be subjected to criticism. He spoke his mind on this issue AND indicated that he didn't have all the information yet. That removes him from criticism in my view. If he had expressed his view without that qualification, he'd have been foolish. No, he's a smart man alright. He covered his behind quite well.

This isn't a liberal/conservative issue but thanks oh so very much sanrene for interjecting your acidic bias, as usual.

Pretty simple explanation.. The officer made contact with the caller when he arrived on scene. The caller told the officer she saw two black men on the porch.
She didn't mention anything about the color during the phone call, but did mention it when talking to the officer....

What Obama did was stupid. He should have kept is big mouth shut.
I wish he'd spend less time being a narcissistic pig and worrying about face time on tv.

Yeah, he's one to give anyone advice.
Wow,didn't know that. Always thought he was a sleazeball.
