I may be naive, but I dont believe all police are just doing a job,, some of them have underlying issues that affect HOW they do their job this officer, in my opinion, had what he needed once he had the id and had no reason not to turn around and go help someone in real need instead of sticking around to harass the man and then arresting him for coming on his front porch(with a cane...lol) yea, the professors attitude... he has a right to talk about the cops mother? the cop was there DOING HIS JOB...then he has to listen to crap from this guy? actually, he does have the RIGHT , on his property to talk about whatever or whomever he wishes,,especially if he is not under arrest or broken any law and COMPLIED with the officers request can you show me the law against talking about whomever I want on MY PROPERTY? for goodness sake, we can shoot people now for being on our property without permission but we will get arrested for talking trash to them? if you dont like what Im saying,, all the more reason to LEAVE..... |

And I am just one more person who will not vote for his stupid arse either!  I didn't buy his BS about change. All we got was Chicago style cronyism. He is such a FACE! No substance. All looks and pretty words! And he really is not black either. O*R*E*O! dont care for ur racial remarks Andy, but I am wiht u 100% on the cronyism - we just dont need it Please allow me to express the irony of my statement. First of all Obama ran a political platform previous to his run for president based on the following quote of his from an address he made to the University of Philadelphia, and I quote, "Corporate greed is White man's greed!" end quote. Obama gets voted in on the ideal he is a black president, the first one, and he IS the change America needed. Now we have the tale of the tape. He is part of the very greed he decried as "White Man's Greed." His administration changed nothing but inflamed a serious problem into something far worst! Black on the outside, White in the middle... O*R*E*O!!! Can you now see the Irony? The shoe so fits and it fits like a glove! But this time our little OJ in question cannot wiggle out of putting this one on. He already is wearing it! I'm not trying to be racist. I just find it ironic that a racist epitaph used by black people fits Obama so damn good! since you are quoting, do you mind providing a source? I have NEVER heard this and especially not during his campaigns which would be odd if it is indeed what he 'ran on' Here are some :) http://www.zimbio.com/Barack+Obama/articles/682/Barack+Obama+Racist+Remarks+Small+Town+Americans His comment about small town America mainly Pennsylvanians in liberal San Francisco a few days ago, said of small town Americans/Pennsylvanians that they are bitter and they cling to their guns, and are religious zealots. They are antipathetic to illegal aliens and anti-trade because they are bitter in their lives. Unfortunately to me, Barack Obama is talking about all small towns in America, mainly those of the Midwest not just Pennsylvania. And while searching for specifics I found this.... http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/07/obamas_a_racist.html Yes, I said it: Obama is a racist. As the white, conservative mother of black/Mexican/white children, I know a racist when I hear one. So is his buddy, Henry Louis Gates. Don't let these two Ivy League-educated, erudite, distinguished black men convince you that only whites can be racists. Believe me, these two men are the worst kind of racists: black and elitist. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, a racist is someone who believes "all members of each racial group possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially to distinguish it as being either superior or inferior to another racial group or racial groups." When Sgt. Crowley investigated a possible burglary at Prof. Gates' Cambridge home this week, Gates met a white cop at his door and evidently assumed Crowley was a bad cop, a rogue, a racist cop who would treat him differently than any other suspected perp, just because he was black. That's racism, folks! What did Gates do when faced with a police officer investigating a burglary in his home? Was Gates polite and courteous to the cop? Did he cooperate and step onto the porch out of the darkened home so Crowley could see his face and ID? Did he calmly explain why a passerby saw him breaking in, if, in fact, it was his own house? Did he speak or act like the esteemed scholar and professor his ID claimed him to be? Nope. He was belligerent, accusatory, uncooperative, irrational and defamatory, throwing racial slurs at the white officer, even insulting the cop's mother (as in, "Yo momma is so..."). If ever a man did NOT act with Harvard professorial dignity and decorum, if ever a black man acted like a thug from the ‘hood, Gates did. Is it any wonder Officer Crowley asked for more ID, one that actually listed that house as his address, or asked for another person to corroborate Gates' identity? I would, wouldn't you? And when Gates refused, and became so incensed and insulting to the Sergeant who was there to protect his property that a crowd grew around his house, was Crowley supposed to allow this kind of behavior, just because Gates was black? No. He arrested Gates for disorderly conduct, as he was trained to do. Last time I checked, police arrest people regardless of race when they act like crazy people in the presence of peace officers. So why is President Obama a racist? Because he, like his friend Gates, automatically assumed the white police officer "acted stupidly." BO assumed it was the white officer's fault, because, of course, we all know white cops are racist, right? And later, when he slightly retracted his statement, he still felt the need to say, "It would have been better if cooler heads had prevailed." By now he knew the facts, that his friend Gates had lost his mind and acted like a fool, but he assumed that Sgt. Crowley similarly lost it and "got all up" in Gates' face, because, of course, that's what all white cops do. But this white cop didn't, because he's not just any cop, he is an expert at managing racial incidents just like this one became, because of Gates' racism. Friends and fellow officers of all races say Sgt. James Crowley is calm and reliable in situations racially hostile situs, because he was hand-picked by a black police commissioner to teach recruits how to avoid racial profiling, and Crowley has apparently been doing a stellar job at it for 5 years. But Gates and our esteemed president didn't know that, did they? So, who are the racists in this story? Gates accused a decent, decorated, above-reproach police officer of being a racist rogue cop, just because he was white. What did our esteemed "black" president do? He immediately took Gates' side, because he's a friend and black! Um, Mr. President, I thought you were going to help erase the racial lines that divide us? Shame on you for taking sides on something you admitted you knew nothing about, for commenting nationally on a small, local issue well beneath your pay grade, and for showing us all that you are not that different that the racist Gates who believes all white cops are bad cops, just because of their skin color. Mr. President, you are a racist. Shame on you. You are SO Sexy when you talk dirty like that!  MORE PLEASE!  A woman with eyes wide open!  I love it when people have details of things they didnt witness,,, sorry, but how about an actual police report and not a commentary from a website,,, just PERHAPS(and again I dont know because I wasnt there and didnt read the police report) this professor had had a LONG trip back home, and found he didnt have a key to his house so he had to jimmy his way in, and therefore was not in the most AMICABLE of moods(which last I checked isnt illegal,,,) THEN, the officer arrived and entered his home where he was standing with his LUGGAGE(how many crooks break into a home with luggage) and using a CANE and most likely had pictures or other evidence of living at that abode and asked him for ID,,which he produced and THEN the officer proceded to make PHONE calls to further verify he was who he said he was.... PERHAPS , if I had lived through a time of segregation and blatant discrimination,, I might have presumed I was receiving ESPECIALLY suspect treatment for reasont that could be due to race being that I had presented evidence of my name and address and didnt fit any other profile of a burglar, being middle aged and using a cane and all.... That is a weak attempt to cover over the fact your hero said racist things and lied to us. Scandalous! Now you try to turn this argument on itself? If Obama said the words, he committed the crime. The gloves fit your honor! Are they Firarre Red or Bloody Red? |

Has anybody considered that the president doesn't play a huge part in our government system? If you want to get conservative laws passed then you need to be more focused on the mid-term elections and vote for congressmen and hope to get the house back. The president is there just to sit back and look pretty most of the time and he doesn't deal with a lot. Our whole political system is based on congress so you all should vote in the upcoming mid-term elections. It is important for you conservatives or it's two more years of winter.

Over 60% of Americans aged 18-24 couldn’t find Iraq on a map of the Middle East (yes, a map of the Middle East… not even a map of the world) in a 2006 survey (that’s three years after the start of the war). The survey found a few other interesting facts:
Only 50% think that map-reading skills are “absolutely essential” Despite that fact, 75% couldn’t find Iran or Israel on the same Middle East map. 65% couldn’t find the UK on a world map. 88% couldn’t find Afghanistan on a map of Asia. Half of people couldn’t find India or Japan on the Asian map 70% couldn’t find North Korea, and only 37% knew that the North/South Korea border is more heavily fortified than the US/Mexico border and the China/Russia border (both of which are mostly barren). 74% of people thought that English is a more common first language than Mandarin Chinese(which was picked by 18%). When asked to pick the country with a Muslim majority (between Indonesia, India, Armenia, and South Africa), 48% thought it was India (which is only 10% Muslim) and only 25% picked Indonesia (which is over 80% Muslim). More interestingly, people thought that the Mississippi’s flow had something to do with Hurricane Katrina. http://charmainezoe-nvts.blogspot.com/2008/06/survey-reveals-geographical-ignorance.html |

I gotta kind of play devils advocate and say that geographical knowledge(where things are on man made maps) isnt honestly a necessary skill for success or survival.

Obama will not win the next election and I too believe in a more Libertarian aspect and look forward to a new breed taking office in the future generations of politics......something more sound and creating more self-sufficient type aspects...........and a restoration of freedoms, independent thought, and individualistic views lending itself into forefront over conformism and a legal system wrought with corruptions............

well, considering that the US picks its presidents with that antiquated electoral college vote, how popular a candidate is or isnt is really a moot issue dont you think?  actually, there is a more proven method of predicting a win than any momentary snapshot of public opinion,,,called the 13 keys,,, if six or more are false, there is no re election • KEY 1 (Party Mandate): After the midterm elections, the incumbent party holds more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives than it did after the previous midterm elections. (FALSE) • KEY 2 (Contest): There is no serious contest for the incumbent-party nomination. (TRUE) • KEY 3 (Incumbency): The incumbent-party candidate is the sitting president. (TRUE) • KEY 4 (Third party): There is no significant third party or independent campaign. (FALSE) • KEY 5 (Short-term economy): The economy is not in recession during the election campaign. (TRUE) • KEY 6 (Long-term economy): Real per-capita economic growth during the term equals or exceeds mean growth during the previous two terms. (FALSE) • KEY 7 (Policy change): The incumbent administration effects major changes in national policy. (TRUE) • KEY 8 (Social unrest): There is no sustained social unrest during the term. (TRUE) • KEY 9 (Scandal): The administration is untainted by major scandal. (TRUE) • KEY 10 (Foreign/military failure): The administration suffers no major failure in foreign or military affairs. (TRUE) • KEY 11 (Foreign/military success): The administration achieves a major success in foreign or military affairs. (TRUE) • KEY 12 (Incumbent charisma): The incumbent-party candidate is charismatic or a national hero. (FALSE, charismatic but not a hero) • KEY 13 (Challenger charisma): The challenging-party candidate is not charismatic or a national hero. (TRUE) read more at:http://american.edu/media/news/20100712_Lichtman_Predicts_Obama_Wins_Reelection_2012.cfm I changed the answers in parenthesis as this was from several months back,,,,to reflect current answer |

I may be naive, but I dont believe all police are just doing a job,, some of them have underlying issues that affect HOW they do their job this officer, in my opinion, had what he needed once he had the id and had no reason not to turn around and go help someone in real need instead of sticking around to harass the man and then arresting him for coming on his front porch(with a cane...lol) yea, the professors attitude... he has a right to talk about the cops mother? the cop was there DOING HIS JOB...then he has to listen to crap from this guy? actually, he does have the RIGHT , on his property to talk about whatever or whomever he wishes,,especially if he is not under arrest or broken any law and COMPLIED with the officers request can you show me the law against talking about whomever I want on MY PROPERTY? for goodness sake, we can shoot people now for being on our property without permission but we will get arrested for talking trash to them? if you dont like what Im saying,, all the more reason to LEAVE..... Typical liberal crap, if you don't agree then you should not be around LOL ! Yet you guys think we are the mean ones lol At least we let you have your opinion's and just laugh at your ignorance. LOL Yes it's against the law to disrespect a police officer. Try cursing one out in your yard and see if he doesn't arrest your for it. It's actually a law. Not that you would know. You are one of those people that's gonna get tazered by a cop for mouthing off and then try to sue for racial abuse. Go ahead and show me in the police report where he had the ID card and still kept the man in custody. Also did you miss the part where Obama retracted his statement? He knows he was wrong why cant you see it too? Also he posted a video proving what Obama said and you have not said anything about that. Lets here your thoughts on your racist president remarks. |

Some people are bad and some are good. Has NOTHING to do with profession. Period. You will find an increase in some jobs versus others but NO job is excluded from people who will and do abuse they're power. |

Wow, I just looked an at this point in President Bush's Presidency he was at 91% approval rating and Obama's at 41%. Hardly remarkable, considering that the 91% rating came right after the War in Iraq started. Anyone who dissented was branded as being a traitor. What IS remarkable, though, is that that 91 % dropped to the low 20s when it became so apparent how badly Bush's cronies had sold the country out. Without checking, I'd have to say that's the biggest 'fall' any president ever took during his term in office. Even Tricky Dick didn't fall this hard and he was just weeks from being impeached and removed from office. Hardly something to be bragging about or using as a measuring stick to compare others... -Kerry O. Actually the 91% was at the end of 2001 and in 2002. In 2001 September, United States was under attack. Makes a bit of a difference in opinions when people fear for their lives. Oh yea, the US was under attack though out the 90's and in 2000 and I didn't see Clinton's approval rating sky rocket. Just sayin' |

I may be naive, but I dont believe all police are just doing a job,, some of them have underlying issues that affect HOW they do their job this officer, in my opinion, had what he needed once he had the id and had no reason not to turn around and go help someone in real need instead of sticking around to harass the man and then arresting him for coming on his front porch(with a cane...lol) yea, the professors attitude... he has a right to talk about the cops mother? the cop was there DOING HIS JOB...then he has to listen to crap from this guy? actually, he does have the RIGHT , on his property to talk about whatever or whomever he wishes,,especially if he is not under arrest or broken any law and COMPLIED with the officers request can you show me the law against talking about whomever I want on MY PROPERTY? for goodness sake, we can shoot people now for being on our property without permission but we will get arrested for talking trash to them? if you dont like what Im saying,, all the more reason to LEAVE..... actually that's not true. Just becausehe is on his property doesn't mean he can say or so whatever he wants. If he is violating laws or infringing on the rights of another person then it's a while nother story. Anyone remember Matthew McConaughey getting arrested inside HIS own house for beign naked?

I cant be nude in public(in view of others), wherever I am standing I can have the freedom to speak my mind, ESPECIALLY on my own property if I am in no way threatening someone |

Typical liberal crap, if you don't agree then you should not be around LOL ! Yet you guys think we are the mean ones lol At least we let you have your opinion's and just laugh at your ignorance. LOL Yes it's against the law to disrespect a police officer. Try cursing one out in your yard and see if he doesn't arrest your for it. It's actually a law. Not that you would know. You are one of those people that's gonna get tazered by a cop for mouthing off and then try to sue for racial abuse. Go ahead and show me in the police report where he had the ID card and still kept the man in custody. Also did you miss the part where Obama retracted his statement? He knows he was wrong why cant you see it too? Also he posted a video proving what Obama said and you have not said anything about that. Lets here your thoughts on your racist president remarks. ahh, the ever elusive REPORT that I was first to request,, lol if I had that we wouldnt have this debate of OPINIONS also, I didnt hear the president say anything racist of course some think that aknowledging racism is the same as BEING Racist,,,lol.....unless you apply that criteria to them... So now you get to make up your own definition of racism??? No my friend YOU DONT! What Obama did was racist whether you like it or not. rac·ism [rey-siz-uhm] Show IPA –noun 1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others. 2. a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination. 3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races. |
