15. He should not have discussed this issue any further.
He was on solid Constitutional ground when he made his statement yesterday, and that is all that is required of him. Now, he is arguing with bigots and everyone should know what a futile exercise that is.

Once you start explaining you look weak even if that is not the case, and the argument will not end when you are arguing with thousands of Orly Taitzes. The most respected people are those who give thought to something before they speak out, then ignore the bigots who, left to their own devices will self destruct.

I do not know what nervous nanny is giving this president advice, but whoever it/they are they are doing him a great disservice.

People admire strength and most can accept a decision when it is well reasoned and backed by the law of the land. He did that and he should not say anything that sounds like he's trying to justify his statement from yesterday. They have to get over worrying about what the moronic bigots from the rabid right think. He was right yesterday and now he should move on.
