So Barack Obama won't back down from his asinine comments about the Cambridge police. Doesn't he know he is digging a hole out of which he cannot escape? As Investors Business Daily notes today, the president's comments are anything BUT post-racial. Indeed, by further emphasizing the racial aspects of the situation, Mr. Obama exacerbated racial tensions rather than lessened them. And it's worth noting that when one inserts race into a situation that is not necessarily racial, some would describe the insertion itself as racist.
