Gates, Crowley, and Obama hit it off rather badly with Gates complaining that the beer cooler was white, and Obama trying to figure out how to explain why a routine arrest is a teachable moment for the nation. Meanwhile, Crowley asked for and got a high paying position in the secret service. Joe Biden, a closet alcoholic, had a non-alcoholic beer but then went back to the naval observatory and finished the quart of Bacardi Gold he had started drinking about 6am today. Obama did manage to articulate that because Crowley was such an exemplary officer, he couldn't find a plausible way of getting him fired and disgraced, so the only option was to take the high road and invite the stupid honkey cracker to the white house for a beverage widely assumed to be the natural drink of all white redneck cops. Meanwhile, Gates regained his composure and began making anti-white slurs against all policemen, even black ones, who he characterized as uncle toms working for the white master.
Reporters were out of earshot, and photographers were at a distance. None of these exchanges was recorded.
