Howdy,

My name is Paul and I'm a Liberal.

That being stated, I am very disappointed with the statement that President Obama made during his news conference about the arrest of Prof. Gates.

I feel that his statement was very racist, and that he made the statement without knowing the facts or even the other side of the story.

This is even more disappointing because Pres. Obama was supposed to end racism and bring the country together. I think that was part of his campaign platform.

Yep, very disappointed. If a white President would have said the same thing about an African-American cop arresting a white person under the identical conditions, there would have be a public outcry for the POTUS to be impeached.

Paul
