I think at the very least, after the "acted stupidly" remark he had some diplomatic ground to make up. Didn't.
Yeah, after Obama put his foot in his mouth, when he pulled it out he left his shoe behind.
I don't expect Crowley to acknowledge the cops have a small percentage bullies, nor Gates to acknowledge the black population has a small percentage of niggers.

I do believe it's a requirement to be a bully to become a cop in Kettering. Of course, Michiganers DO refer to Ohio as a "nazi state"....

I would venture to say that the percentage is much larger than small on both sides.
