George Will on Obama: "This President Is Ubiquitous!"

Conservative columnist George Will is fed up with all the coverage President Obama's response to the arrest of Professor Henry Louis Gates is getting. "The President is everywhere," he argues. "This President is ubiquitous!" He goes on to say that "we converse about race too much."

Also, Krugman says that in addition to the Cambridge cops, Gates "behaved stupidly."

The police officer did back off. Crowley left the residence walked away from Gates and his racist diatribe and was outside. That should have been the end of the story. However, Gates who initially refused to step outside upon Crowley's arrival at the residence, now followed Crowley outside yelling profane racist comments and trying to incite the crowd of citizens gathered on the sidewalk. That is DISORDERLY CONDUCT. There is no defending his behavior or apparent racist bias.

Let's keep our eye on the ball. Gates is a Professor at Harvard, has numerous accolades. (See Wikipedia). Does anyone see context here? Bottom line; He has apparently worked his way to the apex of higher learning & as such,should be an example to the next generation of Black men & women. Refused repeated requests to step outside until officer Crowley tried to walk away, then he followed him in an attempt to race bait. Bailed out by POTUS, shame on both of them. Hats off to off. Crowley

"We converse about race too much." So short, so accurate.

What is the black woman's name? I can't seem to find out, been wanting to look her up.

@Loejyrrab who gives a shit about what fox does? Has nothing to do with what i asked--especially given hannity's show is an opinion show, moderated by an avowed right-winger. Also, how much hannity do you watch, such that you'd know what he "usually" does?

Assuming you're educated, it's hilarious you brought up nazism. Rush, being a conservative and on the right wing, would be foolish to "spew" or promote nazism or any other liberal orthodoxy on his show. It's likely, therefore, he hasn't.

@Loejyrrab Do you understand "rule of law"? A person can not be punished for a crime he did not commit.
