Obama has two young daughters and still comes up with this crap. It’s kind of like Dukakis saying he is still against the death penalty even if it was his wife who was raped and murdered. The president is asking the USSC for a delay on behalf of Congress, why the hell isn’t Congress asking on behalf of Congress? Who the hell does this guy think he is? It’s a great opportunity for Perry to say screw you, you don’t mess with Texas.
Excellent point! Dukakis thought he would endear himself with the anti-death-penalty crowd, Obama with the same crowd plus Hispanics. Some reporter should ask him the question you posed.
