Arjay, since Obama was elected, he has shown that he keeps an open
mind, then constantly draws around him and has meetings with all
sorts of experts in their field, groups of them, to throw ideas
around, listen to informed opionion and all the arguments. They
then try to come up with a consensus as to what would be best for
America, considering all the facts.

Unlike George Bush, who relied on visions from the Lord for his
answers.

No doubt he did the same with the issues that you are upset about
this week. I have not heard what all the experts have said,
the many points they raised, for and against. There would indeed
be many points that neither of us has considered, we weren't at the
meetings. So we can't have an informed opinion.

It is the way that Obama comes to a decision that I respect, so
trust his judgement, unlike with Bush.
