Kingfish Beer Summit post

The news has spent so much time on this contrived beer summit. No one has really gotten into the heart of the matter.

The police report clearly shows that professor Gates needed to be arrested. He was uncooperative and abusive.

The reason why Obama has taken such a huge hit in popularity is simple. Obama made prejudicial remarks about the arrest. Obama made his prejudicial remark for one of several reasons. Either he showed his dislike of police, his dislike of whites, his siding with the black guy without facts or his siding with the professor based on them being friends. Obama has sold himself through the entire presidential campaign has the one who is above partisan politics, the candidate with the moral high ground, or the great healer of all wrongs etc. His packaging himself like some "above it all" messiah has been why so many believed him andvoted him into office.

Once Obama made a prejudicial remark like he did, he revealed himself and forever pulled the foundation out from under the image he has been selling for so long. It's a 15 percent downhill grade from his speech in Cairo until this incident and the downhill grade will continue. Obama will never regain the fake adulation he once enjoyed.

The situation got worse because Obama is too arrogant to atone for the violation. A prejudicial remark coming from both a lawyer and a president requires atonement. He should have apologized and retracted immediately.

Instead he minced words like that he should have "calibrated" what he said and then he brought up racial profiling as a defense. His third attempt at avoiding atonement was to claim that emotions were high on both sides. In other words,Obama tried to muddy the waters by spreading the blame evenly on Gates and the cop. His next attempt to avoid atonement was to chuckle it off and talk about having a beer. Amazingly the poorly contrived beer summit came to pass with the honest cop sipping a beer with the two black perpetrators.

Obama took the actions that he did and revealed himself for what he truly is,angry, prejudicial, chip on his shoulder and a very small man with a lot of arrogance. This shatters the fake image the media created for him. Obama has infected a poison into his relationship with the American people. The toxin will lower but will never go away.

It would be like me coming to your house and then suddenly hauling off and slapping your dog and then leaving and explaining nothing. It would forever alter our friendship. I would have to step forward and explain that I was deathly afraid of dogs and that I overreacted, or profusely apologize and explain that I was once attacked by a similar dog, or I could say I was in areally bad mood and I thought the dog was going to bite me etc etc. As a solution I couldn't fix our relationship by volunteering a few hours a week at the local animal shelter. Without atonement, the relationship is poisoned.

Pride, arrogance, conceit and superiority will stop someone from atoning aviolation. These qualities were not supposed to be in Obama. He was sold as all-caring and sensitive.It's a downhill grade that Obama is traveling. He cannot regain what he once had. It's the same dismal feeling of the President Carter years.
