Well, you know what, Mr. President? If you were bashing some guy’s head into the pavement thirty-five years ago to be a tough guy, you may well have been. As Treacher notes: “Apparently, @BarackObama thinks that if a white kid was beating a Hispanic guy’s head into the sidewalk, he couldn’t possibly get shot.”

The notion that this case is about “white supremacy” is sheer lunacy.

I’ll refrain from comment about how much better off the nation might be today had the President been Trayvon, with the same results.

Every time morons (or liars — OK, could be both) like Eric Holder talk about them in the context of Martin/Zimmerman, they are a complete non-sequitur. This should be pointed out at every opportunity.

Was he attempting to gay bash Zimmerman?

There’s a lot more evidence for that than that Zimmerman killed him because he was black. But it doesn’t fit the politically correct narrative. Nor does the fact that he was an uncharged criminal.

Sadly for the media, almost everything they reported was wrong, and against the narrative. And of course, they continue to tell the lies. And when Will Saletan is calling you out, you know that you’ve jumped the shark.

Shorter Eric Holder: The show trial must go on. Plus a bonus — the gratuitous racism of Nancy Grace. CNN has been more disgraceful (so to speak) than usual on this case.

This trial should never have happened, but at least it came out the right way, despite prosecutorial and judicial misconduct. I particularly enjoyed O’Mara’s indictment of the media at the end of his press conference.

But as Glenn writes, “But count on Obama, Sharpton, et al., to use this to promote racial division.”

That was always the point, and there was never any other.

[Late Saturday night update]

As I predicted, the inevitable lynching threats, on Twitter.

You know, Twitter accounts aren’t really anonymous. I’ve never been that big on prosecution for speech, but I think that this really is fire in a theatre.

{Update a few minutes later]

This was another loss for race-baiter Barack Obama:

By injecting himself in a minor Florida criminal case by implying Martin could be his son, the president of the United States — a former law professor, of all things — disgraced himself and his office, made a mockery of our legal system and exacerbated racial tensions in our country, making them worse than they have been in years. This is the work of a reactionary, someone who consciously/unconsciously wants to push our nation back to the 1950s.

It is also the work of a narcissist who thinks of himself first, of his image, not of black, white or any other kind of people. It’s no accident that race relations in our country have gone backwards during his stewardship.

Nope, not at all.

And I’m glad it was a loss for such a moral atrocity.

Alan Dershowitz says they should be disbarred. I agree. As far as I’m concerned, the judge, too.

Is it maxed out?

Unfortunately, not as long as Obama thinks he can continue to gin up his own base by keeping him there. And apparently he’s still got it in his wallet:

If Zimmerman is acquitted, look for race-obsessed and truth-challenged Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Tom Perez to act against Zimmerman. We’ll see once again what that corrosive “common cause” can do.

He really is a quite despicable man.

And yeah, I know. I’m a racist, too cowardly to discuss race.

“I’m so old, I can remember when most of the people doing that were white.”

Well, to be fair, a lot of them doing it today are still white. And now, as then, they’re Democrats.
