my plan would absolutely work, i never said this was about testimony. i would bring in experts into the court of public opinion, where the game is being played, where obama felt the need to jump in, and it absolutely would work. public opinion gets swayed by shiny displays of beer, getting them confused on a legal matter is a no-brainer.

furthermore doesn't really matter here, i am and always have been speaking of my own views on the matter not on how the case played out. certainly the defense had a smorgasbord of things to choose from to hinge their defense on, bypassing obama's lack of discretion isn't a big deal. nevertheless, it was there for the picking to sway public opinion, they may have even.


again, i'm not saying obama doesn't have a right to open his trap and yap it, i'm saying it's behavior unbecoming of a president in this case and it also left the defense a big opportunity to bash the prosecution in a public forum, from the top down, if they so chose.
