I believe your assessment is the correct one.
An initial vote is not the final vote. Saying something like this could tweak one of them to change it because they want to be able to do their job without the executive branch threatening them and appearing to bow to its wishes and appear subordinate. Doesn’t matter if you’re liberal or not. They can’t set the precedent of appearing to be lesser than the executive branch, or be schooled by the executive branch on their exclusive branches’ power. Much less the executive branch’s blatant threat against them.
Of course Obama could also be doing this to guarantee they have to strike it down, in order to use it as a campaign issue for 2012.
I fear you are right.
