Sean Hannity: Did Obama compare himself to Trayvon because "he was part of the choom gang...?"

One of the president’s childhood friends gives a totally different description of a “choom gang.” Tom Topolindki describes it as a group of typical teens who formed their own kind of family, which is a far cry from the definition Hannity is providing to disparage the president. President Obama was honest about his drug use when he was young, so for Hannity to use it to try to smear him is low, very low. I can imagine that he has used some drugs in his past, but I don’t expect him to ever admit it. Poor Trayvon Martin has been dead for over a year and he’s still being attacked for doing things a lot of young people do/have done. What Hannity and his supporters want is for the rest of us to shut up and let them do all of our talking and thinking for us. In their minds, they run the country and anyone who disagrees with them is evil and deserves their condescension. It’s sad that no one can share any of his/her experiences without someone on the right accusing them of spreading hate and divisiveness. It just shows that they know they haven’t treated some of us as their equals. They want us to shut up so they don’t have to own up to what they have done. They have discriminated against everyone who is not a republican and believes what they believe, so it’s not only blacks that they are trying to silence.
