The President did the right thing. He had really no choice.
That being said, he really should consider not being a clown!
Rahm Emmanuel tendered his resignation, a couple of days before, effective in a few months, for being dissatisfied with the President, the offshore drilling moratorium, was overturned by a Federal Court, and now this...all within the last 72 hours. Everyone he campaigned for, lost, the oil spill took 57 days before he responded, and that was minimal. His approval rating is plummeting....perhaps he needs to hop aboard the 'clue train'!
