Brit Hume on Fox Panel Says Obama Travels World Apologizing for America "but couldn't quite apologize for himself" - Video 7/26/09
Here is video of the Fox News Panel today on Fox News Sunday analyzing President Obama's handling of the firestorm created by his statement that the Cambridge, Massachusetts Police Department "acted stupidly" in arresting Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr.
Brit Hume bluntly said it was striking that "this President who travels the world apologizing for his country couldn't quite apologize for himself."
Mara Liason thinks Obama went a long way to putting the issue to rest, but Juan Williams believes it has hurt Obama and will continue to hurt him as it stays in the news over the week ahead.
Bill Kristol said Obama "is an arrogant man" who feels he can pass judgment on others, from police to pediatricians.
Juan Williams took Obama to task for bringing up racial profiling in connection to this case. Williams said this case has nothing to do with profiling because the officer responded to the home because a possible burglary was called in. No profiling took place.

It is time in America that we get away from this race crap. Lets start looking at the true statistics; FBI statistics. What groups in America today, are responsible for committing the most crimes? I remember a while back Mona Charen was on Cspan and she stated these exact facts. In the so called bad neighborhoods in America what groups of people make them bad? It is not white people.
I and many other Americans are sick and tired of hearing about the victimhood of blacks and so called Latinos. They are tearing this great country apart. I and the many others are not responsible for what happened cenuries ago. The left have totally absorbed into "hatethink". That is a fact and another fact is that there is a higher percentage per there populations that are racist in the black and "hispanic" goups then there ever was in the white population.
Judging by the content of 0bama's character it appears it is sadly deficient.
If Martin Luther King Jr were alive today he would be ashamed of 0bama and Gates.
Lemme guess: you guys are white? Because it always seems like it's us white guys who say "It's time 'those people' got past this. Have you not listened to a word from African-American commentators this week? No, I didn't think so.
Forget about Sgt. Crowley investigating a potential break-in. That's all well and good. But, once he determined that Prof. Gates was the lawful inhabtant of that home, he shouldl have left. Instead, he baited Gates to come out on the porch, and slapped the cuffs on him. I'm not saying it was because Crowley was white and Gates was black, but I am sure as hell saying it's because Crowley was a cop who felt his authority was being questioned, and Gates was a guy who he felt deserved to be taught a lesson. That's an abuse of police authority. The possible/probable racial element is just piled on top of that mistake.
WE have legalized slavery in this country for 250 years. We had legalized segregation for another 100. And now, since we've had 30-40 years of Affirmative Action, the white community suddenly decides "enough is enough"?
You want to tell us again that racism is only a problem in minority communities, when you still feel comfortable saying things like "In the so called bad neighborhoods in America what groups of people make them bad? It is not white people."
You sound like a really bad version of Jeff Foxworthy's "You may be a redneck if..." routine. Please, for your own good as well as the good of your community, open your eyes and wake up. The issues raised this week were not invented by a President you despise (at least partly because he's black). They've been around a long time -- too long -- and they're nto going to go away when white folks cluck and blame it all on "them".
