The Henry Louis Gates Jr./Cambridge police issue

Alan Keyes relates the story of this strange event
and asks “Which 'ism' [is] on display at Harvard arrest?” Racism or Narcissism?

David Limbaugh says this issue is so important because of our President’s response to our countries servant’s, the police.
“We should expect Obama, of all people, given his reputation for coolness and sagacity, to act presidentially, not only in measuring his thoughts before speaking but also in declining to comment on local matters beyond his duties and about which he doesn't have all the facts. But Obama's attitude toward the presidency is not particularly aligned with what our constitutional framers had in mind. He obviously believes it is his prerogative to micromanage any and every aspect of American life, from the catastrophic to the mundane.” Read A teachable moment, indeed
