- Pres. Obama: "I am thankful to Professor Gates and Sergeant Crowley for joining me at the White House this evening for a friendly, thoughtful conversation...."
- Prof. Gates: Let me say that I thank God that I live in a country in which police officers put their lives at risk to protect us every day .... I’m also grateful that we live in a country where freedom of speech is a sacrosanct value.... Thank God we live in a country where speech is protected ..... And thank God that we have a President who can rise above the fray .... President Obama is a man who understands tolerance and forgiveness, and our country is blessed to have such a leader.
- Sgt. Crowley: "First I'd like to thank the police officers from Cambridge.... Thank you."
The rest of us? We're thankful it's almost over.

This whole debacle tells us a lot about America. Plenty of lessons to be learned when a hard working cop meets the soft underbelly of liberal racism. The lessons don’t stop with Gates, it continues with the town, the 911 caller, phony preachers and more, http://stopthepresses2.blogspot.com/search/label/Gates%20Gate
