Facts? We don’t need no stinking facts.
Well folks looks like I must have completely misunderstood the reported facts of the situation and I owe everyone a big apology.
President Obama has decreed from the oval office that the Sergeant at the elite Cambridge Mass police department, a sergeant with many years of experience and education, with an impeccable public conduct record acted… stupidly. Therefore, we must ASSUME the police arrested the professor because he was black and as some of you may know already this is technically illegal.
During a White House press conference yesterday President Obama said he knows Henry Louis Gates Jr., the victimized Professor, whom he considers a friend and that is when he remarked “the police acted stupidly”, although he admitted he didn’t know all the facts.
So there it is, we can close the book on this one and move on to the next police personnel complaint to be adjudicated by our president. Aren’t you glad President Obama doesn’t need all the facts to render a verdict? Justice is so much swifter that way! Nor does he need all the facts to try to pass his healthcare plan that his own Congressional Budget Office said will send the nation a trillion dollars into debt. Facts be damned full speed ahead, and the president said as much in response to his CBO alarmists.
He didn’t need all the facts when he handed out trillions of dollars in TARP money and he didn’t need all the facts when promised to close Guantanamo and release a number of terrorists. Just recently he urged Congress to sign 1500 pages of Cap and Trade legislation without allowing them time to even read it because knowing the facts would likely slow down change. Well, that’s a fact and brother times are a changin!
