Not at all, I've made no comment about the merit of the decision to allow the transaction, as I said in my original post, it may well be very logical and reasonable.
What I question is that given the opposition voices that has been raised, is it wise for the president to use this occasion to make his stand. I mean, how important is it really that this transaction goes through? Is it some major catastrophe if it doesn't? Is it even a minor catastrophe if it doesn't?
In the grand scale of things, how much does it matter? And if the answer is "not very much", why not save your political capital for the more important fights? Who knows, we might get another supreme court nominee this year, he should save his bullets for the important fights.
Thank you Truthsearcher. Your reply was very clear and concise. Your clarification is much appreciated.
You also raised some good points. Perhaps someone will provide the answers regarding potential outcomes for either scenario in the next few days.
