"Stupid"

Obama has done many things to make me sad, but this one has me angry at him. He was 100% correct in calling the police racist and stupid earlier this week. Now it's all over the news saying he regrets saying it.

Why? Because stupid racists are mad at him for saying it? Stick to your guns on something - this was too obviously stupid & racist, why back down? So far he's backed down on getting out of Iraq, and has raised the stakes way high in Afghanistan, has bac-pedaled on what the citizens and doctors of our country overwhelmingly want in favor of the profits, has even one and bought a car company for tax payers that we didn't want, but will accept the day they give every american family a free electric car. You KNOW the CEO of GM gets a free car as a benefit. Now we are the owners of the company, but we won't see any perks. We can have socialized car building without the perks, but we can't have socialized medicine because some stupid insurance companies need to make a profit.

Ah, heck with it. The man can't even hold firm with stupid racist cops, how can we expect him to hold firm against the military and the insurance comapny profit machines?
