Thread: Obama, Gates, and Cambridge police

As an Obama supporter, I'm just as appalled by the president's comments as anyone who's commented before me. What I find more disturbing however, are his comments afterwards, in which he maintained his positon rather than apologize for having misspoken. I'm in hopes that he will retract the statement but I'm not seeing much evidence that it will happen. His statement just proves that anyone can "act stupidly."

Race card = top trump, especially when the commander in chief plays it. However, it does seem a bit plebian for the man who is actively solving the world's problems.
