Let’s start from the premise that the people behind Barack Obama are very smart and wiley and highly motivated to transform this country into a totalitarian socialist paradise – and they think three steps ahead of their adversaries (four steps ahead of John McCain) and are ruthless. They wil win at all costs.
Let’s further speculate that what Professor Gates did was planned well in advance, specifically to provoke the current issue and controversy.
For those of you who are reflexively jumping to the conclusion that Professor Gates is stupid and acted recklessly and trying to stir things up… consider for a second your own future.
You’re in your house a year from now. A uniformed man knocks on your door and says “Hello? I’m Sergeant Green from the Green Energy Audit Committee, and I’m here to measure your carbon outputs so we can calculate your Carbon Energy Tax”.
When you don’t come to the door, Sergeant Green announces “Mr Smith, I know you’re in there. Just because I used to work for ACORN doesn’t mean you can ignore me. This is a real uniform. Please come to the door with your photo ID or I may have to call for assistance to make you comply with my lawful request.”

“Mr Smith. We know from your gun registration records that you own a gun. For office safety, I must now ask you to come out of your house with your hands above your head while we search your house and secure your guns for your safety. I”m sure you can understand the reason for that.”
“I’m in my own house, I have done nothing wrong, I am not a criminal, you have no right to come into my house. Get off my property- now”.
“Mr Smith, I’m sorry that you have resisted my lawful request. I guess that leaves my no alternative other than to use force to comply with my lawful request. ”
Are you starting to get the picture?
