bascule Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Lofty and abstract language and ideals aside for a moment... On the contrary, Obama is doing what's politically expedient as opposed to what's right. I can't blame him, but at the same time to me that's the low road. Justice is not being served, and that sets a very bad precedent.
Pangloss Posted January 21, 2009 Author Posted January 21, 2009 (edited) Choosing to focus on Iraq and the economy is not "political expediency". It's national survival. There are going to be many issues upon which this administration is going to compromise, and I believe the result is going to be unprecedented forward progress on every front. And when he's done the country is going to thank him for it, not obsess over lost opportunities. Better strap in. We start in about eight hours. Edited January 21, 2009 by Pangloss

Well that's all and good, but apparently he's focusing on gun control too.

And when he's done the country is going to thank him for it, not obsess over lost opportunities. I obsess over a loss of justice and a national leadership bound by the rule of law.
DrDNA Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Good for him. He went out (finally) on a good note.
