A reader emails: So you are all upset that Obama goes around and tells people what they want to hear–depending on geography, means, color, and religion. What is the big deal? It is politics. What do you want, a politician that tells the Vietnamese who are torturing him to go to Hell? A politician that tells his party’s base that he favors immigration reform when they hate it? A politician that tells the Congress to send in more troops to save Iraq when they all know the country does not want more troops in Iraq. Is that what you want???
