Last week, President Obama was almost finished with his nationally broadcast press conference when he was asked to comment on the arrest and subsequent release of renowned Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates, Jr. by the now famous Cambridge, MA Police Sargent Jim Crowley.
In his response to the question, the President started off with a legitimate point for discussion—his concern over the alleged practice of Police profiling across our nation.
Had he stopped there, the matter would most likely have been put to rest and the President and national news media could have focused on more pressing matters facing our nation, such as the economy, wars in Afghanistan and Iraq or even the debate on health care. However the President inexplicably decided to expand his response vy saying the Cambridge Police Dept. acted “stupidly” in their handling of the matter—while admitting that he did not have all the facts.
