Such language is beneath the dignity of any President but then this guy is not a real President he's a sock puppet.

I guess it's ok being he is half a brother.    

How low can he go?

Number one, free speech exists to protect speech, especially when it's hateful speech like using the N-word, or the
Westboro baptist cultists for example.

Number Two, Obama is not half a brother. His mother is white/caucasian.
That means Obama's mitochondrial
DNA is caucasian as well, which means that technically, genetically he's as white as they come. In fact I'd say he's as white as I myself am, but I"m half
Cherokee, Smokey Mountain band, so he's not even as "white" as I am. LOL But yeah, if it's ok for him to use that word, then far as I am concerned, while it is a hateful term, it's just as A-0k for one of us to use that word too then.

If it's not ok for us, then it's not ok for him either. That said, the fact he would use that word, and is totally unapologetic for doing so.

Also is yet, another example, like that of Cambridge, Ferguson, and Baltimore of the absolute racism of this President.
Racism which given who his "pastor" of twenty years was, and given the so called "black liberation theology" of James
Cone which Obama sat listening too Wright preach for over twenty years. It shouldn't surprise anyone at all, that Obama is as racist, and racially devisive as it gets. In fact he's every bit as racist as Jim Crow laws, and the KKK of the Democrat party southerners was/are/is.

I like it! Obama goes all Dolemite!

Ain't it funny, how time slips away.

Mark Fuhrman was "set up"? As I recall the Simpson team used his own words against him.

With the high dollar attorneys it is all about creating a "gotcha" moment.

Ditzy jurists are easy prey.

"High dollar attorneys"? Is that when the defendant gets to use at least half the resources the state is using to convict them? There is something wrong with people who resent the fact that the defendant has a good attorney. And having served on a few juries, including one for attempted murder, I've found that the "dizzy jurists" are the ones who accept whatever the prosecution says without thinking about it.

A "good attorney" should seek after truth not manipulation to get his client off the hook.

I realize that an attorney is suppose to help their clients.  However, it is wrong for an attorney to help free someone he knows is guilty. 

We have lost sight of the real purpose of legal justice when we resort to manipulation to get our way.

Unfortunately "truth" is not the goal.

Leftists resent the public defenders, saying they aren't getting the resources that the prosecutors are (or won't devote the energies to getting someone off). They complain if a rich guy gets off (and Simpson wasn't exactly broke). But they didn't complain when he got let off, and Johnny Cockroach became the go-to shyster of the stars.

A good attorney refutes whatever evidence the prosecution brings. Contrary to what some people like to believe, they did that - often with the assistance of the LAPD/LADA office. Also one of the duties of the defense attorney is to destroy the credibility of the prosecution witnesses - which they did with Fuhrman using his own words. As for truth being the object, what irritates you about the Simpson trial is that it didn't have the outcome you desired.

Actually Kardashian was the go to shyster for the stars; but he wanted to make a deal with the prosecution and Simpson wanted to be defended so he was demoted and Cochrane brought in. What many people forget - or don't know - is that Cochrane used to work for the LADA office, specifically he handle allegations brought against police officers. So he knew every officer in the department who was the least bit shady, so he had had run ins with Fuhrman before, and it didn't take much for him to realize that Fuhrman was a racist, and simply look for the evidence.

Uh huh. Pitch "racist cop" to a jury already inclined to let off that feetball hero, no matter what, because O.J. lived in Brentwood, not Watts. I wonder what he paid the evidence-locker people to shrink that glove before the trial. As you say, he knew every crooked cop on the force!

I'm not a liberal, but I do resent the "jurists" we have today. Because like it or not, there are all kinds of cops out there, who really shouldn't be cops. They are because they're on a power trip, and feel a narcissistic need to lord over their fellow citizens. This is why we have cops that do things like arrest someone for "rioting" because the person was waiting on a cab to leave McD's for example. Illegality, and "manipulation" of the legal system, refusal to uphold and enforce what the laws actually state, is wrong anyway one looks at it. And that "problem" has led to lots, and lots of innocent folks being imprisoned. Like this guy...which the State refuses to compensate, after imprisoning him wrongfully for most of his life.

And maybe people also forget the lie detector test that O.J. was taking for Attorney Dershowitz (I think) and Cochrane shut it down immediately when he saw what was happening.  O.J. wanted the test because he thought he was smart enough to pass it.

Cochrane obviously knew he wasn't.... and shut it down.  Dershowitz was no longer on the case!

My point is that "truth" was irrelevant to the defense team.

He didn't pay them anything, like most football players he has really large hands. You see football players fling a ball halfway down a field, catch it one handed, or carry it tucked under an arm with one hand, and you don't realize the obvious. You don't realize how big they are until you see them talking to some normal sized reporter on the sidelines. What I find fascinating is that we've seen corruption scandals, evidence fixing scandals and outright murder by the police, and still there are people out there that demand we accept anything they say as gospel truth. Now that's insane!
