So - I am sure you have heard about the Harvard professor mistakenly thought to be breaking into his own home but was arrested by the white police officer for being a jerk.
I am also sure you have heard the remarks by BO and the blowback that I am sure he never expected....
Have you heard BO's after remarks? How his choice of words was unfortunate? How he walked all around an apology or even saying he was wrong?
It would stink to be married to this man. A man who certainly does not ever feel he is wrong and if you do, well, it is unfortunate that you choose to view it that way....
It is unfortunate that this man has never learned the redemptive quality of being sorry - of asking for forgiveness from someone. It is unfortunate that this man has never learned from a mistake and taken a different direction.
Mr. BO - you want a teachable moment from all this? How about these things:
1 - Say your sorry when you are - It is good for you and good for the one you hurt.
2 - That goes for Mr. Harvard and Mr. Police - Say your sorry even if you really didnt do anything - shake and go on. We make our kids do it - someone should reteach this to adults.
3 - News Media - I am seeing a ton how Mr. Police could have done things different, but what about Mr. Harvard? How about both sides of the black and white issue? - In regards to race relations, black IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT and white IS NOT ALWAYS WRONG.
This whole situation could have gone differently with a Black man laughing this off by telling the white officer that he cant get into his home and to look at his drivers' license. With a white officer telling him that he can get someone out here to help him out and to have a nice evening.
4 - Finally, in just about EVERY interaction, you can guide how things go by your tone and your words - angry and entitled? Ask the Harvard professor how that works.....
Finally, I fear for our country when a man is never wrong and wont admit it when its obvious is our President during perilous times....

Ah, but BO apologizes for the US all the time whenever he's in a foreign country. It's ALWAYS America's fault and he's So Sorry about it. He's the one that's SORRY. Want to see him shutup? Ask him about his birth certificate.

I just can't help but wonder how many issues the head honcho really has with race?
I can't even imagine this guy EVER getting re-elected, but stranger things have happened...!
The whole thing was just race baiting, to fire up the sheeple and divert their attention from the health care travesty. The media wants their socialism....
Obama is a truly frightening person. I'm getting to the point where I dread to read the news.
Yeah, that's pretty much why I am going anonymous again. The huz will be in and out and the whole thing just makes me a little nervous now. I've only got two hands, and if I have to hold two babies and a gun....clearly that could get awkward :) Always better safe than sorry, anyway! I will def. send you the new address when I get it up and going....probably through twitter. Keep up the good stuff here!
I think some of it might be being president. Sort of more difficult to openly come out and say "I messed up" in that context. Imagine he is a bit more humanistic with the Mrs.
Amen.
