The police Obama called stupid acted properly...or he should have said so, any way?

I don't know if you're keeping up or not with the mainstream media. I know it's tough to watch sometimes. But anyway, I guess someone asked Obama a question about a famous African Studies professor getting arrested in his own home because he had lost his keys and so had to brake in and a neighbor saw it and thought it was a thief, so called the police and then he acted disrespectfully or something and got arrested... and Obama's response had been to the effect that the police had acted ''stupidly''. That's the exact word he used. Any way, apparently the professor was also friends of Obama or knows him or something to the effect that he was able to tell the cop " you don't know who you're messing with"... Here's a link for it: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/07/23/police-officer-obama-butt-arrest/ , so you can check out all the details. I'm just going from memory.

What I was getting at is that Obama has no idea what went on there. I mean the whole police world is in an uproar about this. It's serious stuff. I don't recall Bush raising such a controversy over something he may have said, really. As bad as Bush was and as much of a liar and war-criminal, or what have you... I don't recall there ever being this style of controversy, but I could be wrong. I don't know if that says more about Americans than we need to know, but nevertheless, those are the facts. I just report them. You just do not go against the police if you're some sort of government official, period. I think Obama has crossed a line here. A blue line that is...

To sum up, I trust that the police would never act irrationally out of nowhere unless conditions warranted it. I know the kind of  training that they go through. I was in the military. Discipline is number one with law-enforcement people. If you act politely and cooperate, nothing will happen to you. I absolutely believe that. Definitely Obama appears to be appealing to his black base, which has criminal elements intermixed with the regular culture and so they are able to blend it in and make it acceptable to want to ‘kill cops' or ‘smoke a phat one' or whatever they sing...good beats though... just the lyrics are offensive sometimes... but this is America, so keep on singing them... the more offensive, the merrier, I guess...
