"Reuters - President Barack Obama plunged his presidency into a charged racial debate and set off a firestorm in one of America's most liberal bastions by siding with a black Harvard scholar who accuses police of racism..."
"Saying he was unaware of "all the facts" but that police in Cambridge, Massachusetts, "acted stupidly" in their arrest of Henry Louis Gates..."
He was breaking into his own home because he was locked out after being gone on a trip. A neighbor called it in. Police responded and he became very irate, shouting, making a scene.
He was arrested and later released with charges dropped. He demands an apology from the officer and the officer maintains that he did nothing wrong in the situation.
Obama steps in and offers his personal opinion. Way out of line, especially for the president.
It is the largely the liberal democrats that insist on MAINTAINING the race issue, by constantly bringing it up. It's one of the strongest cards they can play and they are loath to lose it.
