Obama: Is he really looking forward?
Major Garrett of Fox News asked press secretary Robert Gibbs if President Barack Obama believed Nancy Pelosi's accusations that the CIA lied to her and misled her regarding briefings about enhanced interrogation techniques. Gibbs replied that the president believes the best thing to do is to look forward.
Funny Mr. Obama wants to look forward now. Every time something goes wrong, the first thing he does is to look back at the Bush-Cheney administration and blame it for the country's woes. All Mr. Obama wants to do is remind us he inherited this, that and the other thing from the previous administration. Obama and his appointees have spoken so often about inheriting problems from Bush that I jokingly tweeted how I wondered if Obama had to pay estate taxes because of all he has inherited.
I have no idea if Pelosi is lying or not, but Obama needs to be a man, take a stand and quit skirting the issue.
