President Obama or his advisers must have been either drunk or high when they came up with the "beer summit". I can almost see Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel passing a joint to the next person saying "Dude, it would be so &^$%ing cool if you like, totally $%@@ing got together for a $%#^ing beer with these $%#@s. You could do it in the %^*&ing backyard like one of those $#%@ing inbred yokels clinging to their guns and religion. You could walk out with no $@%^ing jacket and your #$%@ing sleeves rolled up like you've had a real job in your $@%#ing life. And $#@%ing pretzels and peanuts, man!!!" Rahm does, after all, curse quite a bit. Next to Rahm, ABC's George Stephanopolous who, as a member of the independent, unbiased, untouchable media, helps craft the Obama administration message says "But we have to make him appeal even more to the masses. He has to have a beer people can identify. I got it, Bud Light is the highest seller in the country, he'll have that!" Then President Obama interjects "Why can't I just do a line of coke and call him a racist pig?"
The point here is that the meeting looked as staged and awkward as anything I've ever seen. Both Professor Henry Louis Gates and Police Sergeant James Crowley kept their jackets on. The few highlights I've seen showed Gates, Obama and Biden laughing while Crowley looks like he's ready to make an arrest. Who can blame him? He's sitting with a cokehead, a plagiarist, and a guy who appears to be an asshole (teaching at Harvard should be probable cause for an arrest for brainwashing). Afterwards, Sergeant Crowley admitted that no apologies had been exchanged, but then I've already said Obama could not apologize, and it appears he and Gates on a similar line of thought. This was nothing but a photo op in the hopes to restore some credibility to President Obama who after admitting he didn't know the facts, he figured the police acted stupidly. What do you call it when you enter into a situation with a preconceived notion and then make a judgment based not upon facts but upon your ideas of how people act? I think it's prejudice.
