Imagine what it must have been like to study law under the eminent intellectual currently and formally known as the President of the United States. Seriously. Just imagine it.
This man has been presented not only as a god, but as a god of the mind; a man of superior intellect and capacious abilities regarding law and governance. He is a wonder, a genius.
How ANYONE can reconcile such a ridiculous portrait of a man who is a soaring mediocrity with what that man said a few minutes ago completely escapes this writer. Somehow, in Obamaland, the laws regarding disorderly conduct elude Barack Obama or he intentionally conflates such laws with trespassing.
Regardless, there is SHAME HERE. Mr. Obama DOES NOT KNOW ANYTHING (his OWN admission) about what happened to esteemed professor Henry Louis Gates Jr., nor does he know what happened in the heart and mind of the police officer who responded to a report of a break-in at Mr. Gates' Cambridge, MA home. And yet OBAMA, arguably the chief law enforcement officer of the land, has the AUDACITY to declare that the Cambridge police department "acted stupidly."
Not only is his remark pure idiocy, a rebuke from ignorance, it is a travesty of the very office of presidency. GREAT PRESIDENTS would choose silence here. But fools speak. And imbeciles say what Barack Obama just said.
If there is a law that would allow the Supreme Court to unseat this man from the presidency, it should be invoked tonight.
Seriously, ALL PARTISANSHIP ASIDE, Obama not only embarrassed the office of the presidency, he cheapened it. He should be ashamed. He should APOLOGIZE profusely. And then he should resign.
I have never heard anyone in a position of leadership speak so arrogantly in such an incredibly ignorant manner.
Barack Obama just embarrassed America. And as one radio personality in Boston said tonight moments after Obama's idiocy, Barack Obama has set race relations in this country back "a hundred years."
