Unequal Pandering
The Jawa Report lands a torpedo under the stacks regarding President Obama weighing in on the Zimmerman/Martin incident in Florida:
Obama said he supported the investigations, noting: “If I had son, he’d look like Trayvon.” [A White House Mouthpiece] said Obama “was speaking powerfully about this as a parent.” [He] added that “no matter gender or race, this is a tragedy.”
That does make sense. It was very similar to comments President Obama made about Allen Coon, the white 13-year-old who was set on fire by two black classmates [On Feb 28, 2012 -- Strat]. Obama said then, “If I had a son, he’d look like Allen.” Oh wait, Obama didn’t say anything about Allen. My bad. |
