The Gates Metaphor

The Professor Gates controversy in Cambridge is the perfect metaphor for the entire Obama presidency. To paraphrase Mr. Obama's answer to a reporter's question about the Gates incident at his recent press conference about health care, he effectively said "I know I'm biased,......I don't have the facts,.......but I'll speak out anyway."
When has that NOT been the case with Obama? He speaks with bias and without facts all the time, and supports other Democrats in doing the same. He has signed enormous spending bills that neither he nor the Congress have read - which I would interpret as a form of speaking without the facts. While pushing his radical health care agenda on a conference call with some liberal bloggers he admitted he hadn't read the bill he was arguing in support of. Again, speaking without the facts.
At least Obama has now admitted to speaking with bias and without facts. But most of us who have been paying attention knew that already!
