Obama Is Guilty of Racial Profiling

On Wednesday, Barack Obama created a mini-firestorm by siding with a black professor and a friend who had a dust-up with a Cambridge Massachusetts policeman(See the Full Story from the Boston Globe: "Obama scolds Cambridge police") .

From the onset of Obama's commentary about the situation, he said he didn't know all the facts. Yet, he continued on by painting a broad stereotyped observation about how white cops have always interacted with blacks and presumed that to be applicable in this case. Unfortunately, the police report (See Report) doesn't really support that commentary by the President.

Obama, once again, fell back into his Community Organizer roots by pitting the people against the establishment and by demonizing that establishment. This time the establishment was the police. In the past, it has been things like "greedy Wall Street" and the banks and the rich. This time, the target was a white cop doing his job; just as "Joe the Plumber" was his target for simply asking a question that raised questions about Obama's policies.

What this President "did" is to do the very thing that he was trying to condemn: Racial Profiling. This time it was in reverse by "profiling" the "typical" behavior of "white cops"; just as he had once typified his white grandmother (See Full Story from the Left-wing Huffington Post).

All the evidence points to the fact that it "was" Barack Obama who was the one who acted "stupidly" in this situation by even commenting. But, this is so typical from the un-Presidential President that we now seem to have. To me, this supposed post-racial President can't keep himself from stirring up the racial pot; from his own grandmother who was shaken by the somewhat aggressive behavior of a black man at a bus stop; to this white cop who had to sustain abusive insults from a college professor who had a past history of verbally condemning the whites of American society.

All this does is remind me that Barack Obama may have, in fact, sat in the pews of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's church and, contrary to what he now claims, was a whole-hearted listener and believer in the Black Liberation Theology that was being preached in that church on almost every Sunday. An integral part of that racist philosophy is the constant condemnation of all whites by broadly painting them as stereotypical racists. I believe that Obama's comments about his grandmother as a "typical white person", and his recent comment about this "typical" white cop reflects that belief. If so, this man will never really be the so-called post-racial President that the media seems to want to paint him as.
