Funny. The liberal's who a few days ago were outraged now want to wait for more evidence. I wonder is the black KKK have agreed to take the bounty off Zimmerman's head.

There are three kind of liberals;
Stupid, ignorant or evil
The result is always evil but the intent is not always evil. Not that it makes much difference in the long run.

Zimmerman: This guy looks like he’s up to no good. Or he’s on drugs or something. It’s raining and he’s just walking around, looking about.
Dispatcher: OK, and this guy — is he black, white or Hispanic?
Zimmerman: He looks black.
The difference between what “Today†put on its air and the actual tape? Complete: In the “Today†version, Zimmerman volunteered that this person “looks black,†a sequence of events that would more readily paint Zimmerman as a racial profiler. In reality’s version, Zimmerman simply answered a question about the race of the person whom he was reporting to the police. Nothing prejudicial at all in responding to such an inquiry.
This is exactly how Dateline NBC played it. Not sure why the Today show's version would have been different.

I had a dream. It was an incredible dream. When I awoke, I had a huge mess to clean up.

I'm guessing someone at Today decided the real tape was not racist and had to doctor it a bit to get the story across. Clearly the Today is not a news show. Of course Fox's morning show had done it I'm sure the liberals would be yelling about Fox News.

Yeah, they're doing an internal investigation now. Pretty sloppy journalism.
