Ahhh, but the president is responsible for the choices he does make concerning who/what he pays attention to... and inserts himself or the federal government to get involved with. Professor Gates situation, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown... hmmm, can anyone discern a potential pattern here by chance? Seems pretty black and white to me...The president isn't a puppet that talks about what I want to talk about or visit the funerals I think he should visit. I'm going to go to the news and flail my arms for attention.
Seeing as how there are 350 million Americans he's responsible for, his entire universe does not revolve around you.
Where do you get your information... or do you just FEEL its so?The police are becoming unhinged attention whores.

I think there is an important distinction to make between employed police officers and elected sheriffs. This isn’t about policing, it’s about politics.The police are becoming unhinged attention whores.

And seems more for the lawbreakers rather than for the law enforcers, just saying.
I have a spare ladder at my house if you decide you want to get down off your high horse there...getting nosebleeds yet?Being a police officer still isn't in the top 10 most dangerous jobs in America and it's not getting worse. I'm sorry that you're upset that he hasn't politicized police deaths enough, but throwing a public tantrum because your issue isn't getting enough attention doesn't mean he doesn't care about it or is actively fighting against it. It's kind of like saying "How dare Obama have dinner last night when MY issue hasn't been addressed yet. He obviously doesn't care about my issue."
How many random police officer funerals did Bush visit? Clinton? Reagan? Any of the past presidents? What this really is about is outrage that attention is finally being given to the disproportionate number of unarmed blacks that are being shot by police. I'm sorry that you're upset, but when group X gets more attention than you, it doesn't mean you're being ignored or plotted against. The universe does not revolve around this issue, but then again, it's never really been about Obama's actual positions, rather the ones you people superimpose on him.
President Obama's silence on a wave of recent killings of police officers is being ripped by law enforcement, with one Maryland sheriff taking to Facebook to mock that he will "save you a spot next to me!" at this week's funerals for two deputies.
"Mr. President, your silence about these events SPEAKS VOLUMES!!!! PS: I'll be standing outside in the cold next week with my deputies for the funerals of the Harford Co deputies; I'll save you a spot next to me!" Facebooked Carroll County Sheriff Jim DeWees.

Did you even read what I posted? Obama doesn't have to, and neither did other presidents, make a big deal about police deaths... its more that he more often comes to the defense of the lawless, the ones who are causing trouble, putting the rest of us in danger instead of defending the ones putting their lives on the line to protect our communities from those ones that would do us harm. Very poor analogy, btw, it bears not even faint resemblance to the sentiments expressed here. Even if you said we are all starving here at home and yet Obama jets off to Paris to have an extravagant feast, which would be closer to being similar to what was said, it still would not be a sufficient analogy.
I would suggest glasses, but I don't think the problem is with the eyes. Perhaps remove the blinders?
And to make an inexcusably offensive remark like your last statement shows one to be of little discernment and pretty much stuck in ones ways. Partisan cement, when it sets and cures, is hard to extricate oneself from I am guessing. Good luck with that.

LOL. This kind of proves my point. While visiting black people he's visiting "criminals" and ignoring all the nice white folk dying all over. Considering essentially every president in history has ignored or abused American blacks I don't think it's this horrible atrocity that the first black president puts a little emphasis on engaging them too.
Lefties will bend over backwards to apologize for this scoundrel no matter what he does, eh?LOL. This kind of proves my point.

How about trying not to be divisive on the topic of race? How about not sending federal investigators to try and ring a trumped up racial charge out of an already explosive situation? Why not side with law and order regardless of who it is? Why get involved with court cases involving people who could have been his son?
Seriously. I understand wanting to change the outlook for black youth. But where is the disdain for the get rich and die trying mentality of pop culture? Why isn't he demanding personal responsibility? There are 100 things he could do that I wouldn't necessarily see eye to eye with as a republican, but would at least give me faith that he isn't anything more than a political whore.

So lets say Ben Carson becomes our second black president, but in reality our first true black president as Obama's mother was white. And let us say he is our first black Christian president and wants to engage Christians and bring religion, which has been badly denigrated in the past 50 years, back into the public square. You are gonna be alright with that too, right. I mean with worldwide atrocities being committed on Christians and many of them being African Christians, this would be fine, right? LOL
What poor poor white victims you are. The president listens to black people problems too, so he's racially divisive.
I know you think that the president should side with law enforcement even when a law enforcement officer murders an unarmed black man in cold blood, but that's not really how the law or our nation works.
Every president gets criticism from the other side, but with Obama the hyperbole had been so vile and so intense it can't stem from anywhere other than a racist place. Yes, he's a tyrant Anti-christ Kenyan Muslim whose sole purpose in life is to racially divide America and crown himself emperor.
Stay butthurt with your fabricated grievances.
Oh, and no I do not think a president should push his religion on the nation. If you have some instances of Obama doing that let me know and be specific with your grievances.
And there it is. You think this is about being s victim. You are so in love with the president that you aren't even remotely capable of understanding how divisive he is. How UNpresidential he has been. Need I direct you to Darren Wilson? Or trayvon Martin? How about the lovely comments Obama made in these incidents?
Again...Obama has NOT been a beacon of light and hope and fairness. He has been a beacon of division. That is truly sad too. And not because he "listens to black people," but because he CLAIMS to listen. He then pulls stunts like the above as a form of appeasement, and doesn't do ANYTHING about the real issues.
COP Lives Matter. Anyone that disagrees should have their 911 access denied.President Obama's silence on a wave of recent killings of police officers is being ripped by law enforcement, with one Maryland sheriff taking to Facebook to mock that he will "save you a spot next to me!" at this week's funerals for two deputies.

Lol. If not ignoring the black community and not supporting police officers shooting unarmed and innocent men is being divisive then I guess you're right.
What it seems like the hyperbole crowd like yourself is really mad about is that he's black where black isn't wanted. White presidents ****ing over or ignoring minorities was never divisive, but when a black president engages everyone instead of only the people you think are important he's essentially the next Hitler.
Keep screaming at the top of your lungs about how atrocious everything is without providing any examples or reasoning to back it up. I'm not a big fan of Obama and I didn't vote for him but I also don't think he's the Muslim antichrist trying to destroy America from the inside.
How many random police funerals did Bush and Reagan go to?
1) I don't give a CRAP about attending funerals. That has nothing to do with anything, and honestly would make me feel that he was pandering even more. He is the POTUS. Why the hell should he be involved in a local incident?
2) Which brings us to the next bit:
WHY the hell was Zimmerman investigated by the FBI? You see...you are claiming he is looking for "justice" for blacks. Bull****. What injustice was done? Hm? The case was investigated? But the left didn't like the results. Reminds me of mike brown. Which leads me to the next bit:
3) Unarmed doesn't mean ****. If I tried: I could kill you with my bare hands, and you would have legitimate reason to shoot my ass dead too. Are you saying that being unarmed means you cannot possibly be a threat?
Or in your world is that not a threatening assault on someone?
Conclusion:
You have bought hook line and sinker into the pandering by Obama and the left. They don't give 2 ****s about black people. Kind of reminds me of Beyoncé and her husband (drug dealing thug turned multi millionaire musician) actually. Exploiting image to scam the people.
This isn't the 1960s. Nobody gives a **** what color your skin is. And we are sick of hearing how a 300 lb black "kid" is a victim for strong arming a convenience store and got shot for VIOLENTLY resisting arrest.
Had Obama stayed hands off with that bull****? Maybe used his sway to push for better inner city projects? Maybe not called trayvon his son BEFORE A RULING WAS OUT...I might not be as inclined to believe he is anything more than a race baiter like al sharpton.

He was responding to wide spread outrage from the black community, so if you have a problem, it's with the black community, though I suspect it's just with black people in general.

Was going to ask the same thing. Every policeman I know could care less about attention.
I think there is an important distinction to make between employed police officers and elected sheriffs. This isn’t about policing, it’s about politics.
