Obama and Holder won't shut up about TM. They keep making this guy out to be some choir boy.

First, Obama says if he had a son, it'd be Trayvon.

Now, he's saying "Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago.”

Obama also said, “Reasonable doubt was relevant, and they rendered a verdict. Once the jury's spoken, that's how our system works.”

Obama said he was "bouncing around" ideas with his staff on how to respond to the Zimmerman verdict, adding, "I think it is going to be important for us to do some soul searching." Pushing against Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law, Obama stated, "If Trayvon Martin was of his age and armed, could he have stood his ground on that sidewalk?"

Finally, Obama went into the racial complexities of the Martin situation: "A lot of African-American boys are painted with a broad brush...If a white male teen was involved in the same kind of scenario, both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different." He did say, "As difficult and as challenging as this whole episode has been, I don't want us to lose sight that things are getting better...We're becoming a more perfect union, not a perfect union, but a more perfect union."

What about Jaden Donald? What about Damani Henard, Ed Cooper, or Joseph Brewer, Jr?

So sick of this racist President pushing race as a factor. "If a white male teen was involved in the same kind of scenario, both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different."

Dear sweet Jesus, help me. This is working on my last nerve.
