So, in other words, Obama has the sense to not cave to a silly and ridiculous Islamic demand and he has the decency to also stand against hatred and discrimination based on sexual preference.

I am certain that the wingnuts will have a field day trying to pretend that Obama is still a secret jihadi at the UN in the first case. I am even more certain of the seethe fest on the second case.

And yet, honestly, I have to say I am very pleased with the president on both counts.

But wait, the whole Obama can’t do anything right meme needs to kick in in 3.2.1…

I can hardly wait to hear how Fox spins these things.

I will enjoy watching Malkin’s eyes bulge with rage.

I will mostly enjoy watching asses like Inhofe and Santorum fume because, yes, 21st century America really is moving past theocons like them.

Anyone who wants to cast blame has to be willing to give credit where credit is due. Obama got this one right. Sort of. Attaching the hate-crime law to a military appropriations bill sets a bad precedent. It should have gone through on its own.
