Obama ‘Re-Racialized’ Zimmerman Case With His Comments

Charles Krauthammer on Friday blasted President Barack Obama for what he said was re-injecting racial controversy into the shooting death of Trayvon Martin.

Krauthammer called Obama’s surprise remarks on race and Martin’s death “a political speech addressed to his constituency on the left” that was disguised as a “philosophical speech addressed to the whole nation.”

“Look, I gave him and [Attorney General Eric] Holder credit all week for trying to de-racialize the issue. And what Obama did, I think, unfortunately, today is to re-racialize it,” Krauthammer said on Fox News. “The first statement he issued after the verdict…was to talk about we have to honor what the jury decided and then he spoke about helping our communities helping our neighbors and gun control. But it wasn’t about race…but Obama re-injected it [Friday].”

BS, he gave Trayvon a voice and his humman identity back after and as the hate machine in this country tear his memory apart.

BS on you 9:33--Trayvon voluntarily surrendered his voice and identity to become a street thug. He could have easily identified himself and gone back to his fathers girlfriends house--instead he chose to beat the living crap out of Zimmerman. Grow up and learn the facts.Stating the truth is not a "hate machine" FYI

Ientify himself to who 11:25? Zimmerman, some moron following him around in the rain and dark? Someone with no authority or right to stalk? Would you stop and identify yourself to any stranger in the rain and in the dark following you? Didn't think so.

Really twisted logic when you think about it 11:25....really twisted.

How is it twisted logic? Zimmerman is a reasonable person, if Trayvon had identified himself as visiting his fathers girlfriend and promptly headed there he would be alive. He is dead because he chose to attack and viciously beat Zimmerman on the sidewalk. Sorry if the truth offends you. Zimmerman just help rescue a family from a burning SUV, with no thought to his own safety. People with your kind of malignant and vicious logic are the REAL PROBLEM 2:34.

yep 459 because we all know that when a black boy is stopped, he better answer "yes sir, no sir" and obey your every command. Afterall he shouldn't have the freedom to avoid his progress being arrested by a stranger with no authority to detain him.
