Take note moderators!  Remember..."Suspicion breeds confidence".

...
Derogatory remarks toward President-elect Barack Obama made on a social networking Web site are now the subject of an internal police investigation.  A police department employee claims the statements were made on the MySpace pages of two Durham officers.

"There's no exact words that were said," said Police Chief Jose L. Lopez Sr. in a telephone interview Wednesday from San Diego, where he is attending the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference. "It wasn't a racial slur, but we're still investigating it."

Investigators, who are focusing on the context of what was written, have been looking into the allegations since Thursday.

Don Rickles made a joke about Obama playing basketball on Letterman and it bombed. He is the king of politically incorrect humor, but even he did not get a pass. All hail Obama and don't dare make fun of him.

Hey, you can't say that. Obama is part muslim and you used the word bombed in the same sentence as his name. How insensitive of you ... jackass. Now say 3 hail Obama's and make a financial contribution to the NAACP to make amends for this heinous blasphemy.
