The Policwe officer got his ego bruised, when Dr. Gates didn't immediately fall down, and lick Sgt. Jim Crow-ly's jackboots. Professor Gates is a lucky man, as in most of this country, an officer with a bruised ego, equals a citizen with a bruised head!Tim Kernshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14897577556690327492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241505550351823820.post-86550207295504838992009-07-26T20:47:27.834-04:002009-07-26T20:47:27.834-04:00That makes much more sense! :-)That makes much more sense! :-)Lissie-Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09564581525091548289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241505550351823820.post-55028598058826032592009-07-26T17:04:02.157-04:002009-07-26T17:04:02.157-04:00LB, Kristi is using sarcasm... ;-)LB, Kristi is using sarcasm... ;-)Eric Schansberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147388189415035752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241505550351823820.post-29590235351204743792009-07-26T15:13:59.412-04:002009-07-26T15:13:59.412-04:00The police did not act "stupidly".

He made comments back in February when he pushed the Stimulus/Bailout bill and expressed that he won the Presidency while thumbing his nose at others who have disagreements. He then attempted to bite off much more than he can chew with the National Health Care and Clean Energy Acts and recently he expressed that people are "trying to ruin his Presidency." If he doesn't get a grip on reality, he's going to continue to trip up until he marginalizes himself even amongst his peers in the House.Nobodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16392257741531544951noreply@blogger.com
