I just love how every international and domestic crisis is a reflection of President Obama's perceived strength or weakness and requires immediate U.S. intervention. Take for instance the North Korean vessel recently suspected of carrying small arms and other illicit weapons. That same ship, Kang Nam, has now returned to North Korea without docking or unloading it's materials in a foreign port. Yet that developement has flown under the radar and those same critics, who blasted the president for not being "tougher", are nowhere to be heard from now that it appears that the U.N. Resolution had more bite than some had originally thought.

My point is this, if we're going to critique the president or Sarah Palin for that matter, afterall this is a Palin to resign thread, let's be fair and balanced, as one of my favorite networks likes to say. Where the president is wrong, he should be held accountable and taken to task. And where he's shown sound judgement early on, there's no crime in acknowledging that.
