If he did that, he can handle this Lynn Sweet/Gates question setup bullshit.

1. He didn't do anything wrong. He's the President
this isn't the campaign anymore. He shouldn't worry himself with this nonsense

3. Exactly. He answered a question about a friend....and they want him to speak as
the main black person in America. Why would he NOT say something?

4. I think to some degree, you are aiding in blowing this incident out of porportion.....
I don't think you mean to do it, but comparing the president making this statement
to the month long loopDloop of Rev. Wright is quite a stretch.....
The only thing they have in common is that some will see this as a opportunity to dump
on this President.

5. LOL why are you attacking me??? I'm not the only one posting about this
Edited on Thu Jul-23-09 04:29 PM by HopeOverFear
damn, Frenchie :rofl:

Ok, you know what, here comes something serious, though. Now that Spineless Harry has made it clear there'll be no vote until Sept, do you know what the GOP plans to do EVERY FUCKING DAY of the month of August??? TALK ABOUT PRESIDENT OBAMA'S COMMENTS ABOUT GATES.

I was wrong about Obama walking back his comments about Gates, but I'm not wrong about this. They're gonna have ONE WHOLE MONTH to spin this shit right out of proportion.

Watch.

6. I don't think Rev. Wright ever got arrested
Gates should take lessons from Wright is going along to get along, maybe he could stay out of trouble. :sarcasm:

7. If the media didn't ask Bush why he sat and did nothing after Card told him we were under attack...
...then to hell with them. They have no right asking about Obama's comment.

F*** the media and the "whorses" they rode in on!

8. I think this will blow over soon because Obama said nothing wrong or out of place.
The Pat Buchanan's of the world will whine about this endlessly but nobody but their fellow bigots will bother with them.
