Peace and Love at 1600 Penn. Ave.

Obama invited Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. and Cambridge, Mass., police Sgt. James Crowley to join him for a beer in hopes of quieting the furor over the president's comment that in taking Gates into custody police had "acted stupidly."

The only stupid person here is our Magic President. He told us during the coronation...er...campaign..that he 'would not focus on color', that we had 'moved beyond the politics of race'.

What a moron. Hey dummy, when you're in a hole, stop digging.

ARROGANT.ALL-KNOWING and RACE OBSESSED

This illustrates what the Obama administration inadvertently but constantly reveals..not just that we are spiraling toward socialism, but that "white" people have moved beyond race where "people of color" have not. His election is the first and most profound indicator of this, and his comments off teleprompter just continually reaffirm this. The fact is, most white people could not care less about color. However, many black people, along with an enabling media, are so invested in racism that it has become how they identify their lives. The racial pendulum has shifted. When black leaders have made racism their business, it is not in their best interest to recognize that we have all basically moved beyond it. Gates is invested in the historical victimization of his ancestors. To be fair, the most important advances have only come since 1964 and he has memory of real racism, but black "scholars" like Gates have too much personal investment in being blind to progress, not blind to color. He is a black racist, and so is Obama.

This professor* wasn't arrested in his home, he was arrested outside because he was following the police officer around yelling in his ear like a drill sergeant to a ensign in the military. For those of you that think this is normal behavior, you too can expect to be arrested next time you try harassing an officer. Obama can't apologize because he is an egomaniac. What we have here is a Southside Chicago street agitator trying to play with the big boys and there's obvious difficulty making the transition to the more reputable position of President. See what happens when you let a hack do a man's job, especially when you know not from where he comes.

"..."But I think it's fair to say, No. 1, any of us would be pretty angry," Obama said. "No. 2, that the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home. And No. 3 -- what I think we know separate and apart from this incident -- is that there is a long history in this country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately, and that's just a fact."

Really, Barry?

And how would you know this? I'm the same age as you, and I grew up post-civil rights era, same as you. I never saw a black man lynched or harassed. What I do remember is going to two high schools where blacks were totally accepted. I remember Arnie Jackson, one of two black kids in a high school of 1700 whites. We ran on the track team together. Arnie had an awesome stride and we told him so all the time. Calvin Lightner was a black kid on my basketball team. I don't recall him being hauled up a burning cross.

Barry, you and your buddy Skippy Gates live in the 1950's. You NEED Jim Crowe and racism to justify your set-asides and quota programs, you need racism to justify your very existence. Why, without racism in your hip pocket you two would run out of excuses for your ridiculous statements. I've got news for you- america is bored with you, Skip Gates, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and all the rest of the race-hustling poverty-pimps out there.

And in fact it's you, Barry Hussein, who is the racist. We know this by your statement above. You are obsessed with race, or you never would have brought it up
at the press conference where you yourself admitted you didn't know the facts. You just divined what the police officer's motives were. You assumed your friend, black and educated*, was automatically correct simply because he's black, the cop is white, and by golly white cops just naturally harass black teachers.

Barry, you need a lot of the sensitivity training we've had to endure for 40 years.

And by the grace of God we hope we'll have to endure you for only three.

California bans fire.

That's correct. Fire has been banned.

You pay thousands to live here. You work hard. On the rare cold day in southern California (hopefully around Winter Solstice time-----can't say 'Christmas'---might offend) you decide to light a couple of pine logs in the fireplace and enjoy a glass of red wine....possibly a (gasp) cigar. All is good.

A month later, you open a letter from some government agency. It announces a monetary fine. You owe x amount of dollars to the State.............for burning wood.
Fines will run as high as $500 per violation.

One Redlands woman at the hearing described coughing and "expectorating" every evening on a regular walk through her neighborhood when wood fires are burning.
Colleen Callahan of the American Lung Assn.'s Los Angeles office argued unsuccessfully that the board should restore the measure.

"When a potential homeowner is seeking to purchase a home, they're not going to say 'Where's the wood?' They're going to say where's the clean air in Southern California,' " she said.
