Obama and Gates arrest?

Anyone want to discuss?  I posted an article I read about this situation on  my FB today and people went crazy responding.  It's also been all over the news today.  Something to liven up the board a bit?

    I probably don't know enough about it, but why is Obama involved?  Because he is friends with the guy?

    Reporter threw in a question at the end of a Health care PC.  He answered by starting with "I don't have all the facts..." He answered off the cuff without having all the facts and the media has run with it.  I was just curious about other's takes on what was going on with it.

    i saw his response at the press conference and i thought he handled it decent enough. i havent really kept up with the media flack though.

    Media is having a field day with it. I'm actually really interested to see how the  whole thing ends up playing out in Cambridge.  I'm alot less interested in what Obama has to say about it, though he did just call and apologize to  the PO involved, which I think was the right thing.
