This question was unasked and a completely, totally unimportant 7 years ago — why should it be important now??
And even worse, as a legislator (admittedly a mostly do nothing position as a junior person) Obama largely voted “present” at the State level — not even taking a position.
And now this is an issue??
so what you are saying is that if one is stupid, and someone does not ask why you are stupid in the past, it is ok now?
