re: #123 SanFranciscoZionist

He’s calling an end to a long and exhausting military operation begun by another president, and which he was, as a senator, opposed to. It’s not exactly a ‘yee-haw’ moment.

Obama was able to pay respect to the two opposing sides of debate, even to Bush, without re-engaging the debate at this transitional moment. He did it without ‘just doing it because he had to’ or because he should, it was sincere and respectful.

This isn’t really the time for the debate, we’ve had years to do it and will have many more years to do it.

Upding Obama.
