Cambridge Cop Accidentally Arrests Henry Louis Gates Again During White House Meeting

And what did we, as a nation, learn from the Gates incident? Well, we learned that Gates is an asshole. And we learned that, despite his assholiness, he should not have been handcuffed and taken in, because it is not a crime to be an asshole in one's own home. In fact, it is pretty much precisely what the founding fathers had in mind when they created a little concept I like to call America. Jefferson would stand in his living room, stare through his bay windows, and flip the finger at redcoats. Then he would grab his crotch and say, "Hey, little red king-boys! I got your king, right here."

Many people consider him the true spiritual father of New Jersey.
