Second, it's again amazing how unable this president is to take full responsibility for his decisions and choices. Face-saving is not an unusual thing in politics. But equally it is never a sign of real strength. A strong president takes responsibility for his own choices, even if he feels misunderstood or misled. Reagan's Iran-Contra confession was an example of someone strong enough to admit a failure. This president is not internally strong enough to do something similar. His strength is a form of brittleness. Like all brittleness, it is prone to cracking suddenly and without warning. It just did. (courtesy andrewsullivan.com)
Personally, I thought she should have gone through the hearing process, for the sake of those interested in this country in the process of selecting a justice for SCOTUS. But that's just americanlogic's opining.
