"The\nauthor has been sent on the road to discover a lost country formerly known as\nAmerica. He is reporting from a ditch outside your home, thanking streaming\nvideo, you, Stu and the High Desert Animal Hospital that Season One is done, on\nassignment for Or-Bust.com and The Source Weekly.\n\nThe Curious Case of the Professor and Police\n&amp;quot;You boorish Paddy! Egress my domicile or shall I berate\nyou further?&amp;quot; That&amp;#39;s my take on what Henry Louis Gates Jr. said to Cambridge\ncops last week. First it was Jacko &amp;quot;dying&amp;quot; and now a Harvard professor getting\narrested for disorderly conduct (charges were dropped within two days).Which\nAfrican-American will Obama turn to next in order to distract us from the\nhealth care boondoggle (which no longer includes the words &amp;quot;universal&amp;quot; or\n&amp;quot;single-payer&amp;quot;)? This curious case-the arrest and health care initiative-only\ngets more interesting: The 911 tapes have been released, contradicting\narresting officer Sgt. James Crowley&amp;#39;s report that caller Lucia Whalen\nmentioned &amp;quot;black&amp;quot; men entering the house and that he spoke with her at the\nscene. She didn&amp;#39;t, on both counts. Sure Gates probably berated the officers\neloquently after being found in his own home with ID and, yes, Gates is an\ninsufferable intellectual who feigns interest in common folks&amp;#39; problems on PBS.\nBut he was the wrong guy to arrest.Boston is hardly a beacon of racial harmony,\npity the next non-Harvard professor found snooping around Cambridge. Makes you\nreally appreciate living in Central Oregon, don&amp;#39;t it? Our cops are pretty cool,\nand the only minorities to be found are obese people visiting from Houston. One\nfinal note: To repair race relations, Obama has invited both Sgt. Crowley and\nProfessor Gates for beer at the White House. How they will laugh and laugh!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
