"You should have a tag: 'Obama is like Bush but with more procedural protections.'"

I make a cameo appearance on the Althouse blog, referring to Obama's newfound support of military commissions in Guantanamo.

My mom adds:

I'm laughing at Obama, but I'm also thanking him for doing the right thing and reasonably tolerant of the way he's tried to save face by pretending he's not doing exactly the same thing Bush did.

And she quotes a commenter who says:

I was convinced that you were wholly deluded when you decided that Obama was going to be more of a pragmatist than most people (especially his own backers) expected. I very grudgingly concede that you may have been somewhat right. I underestimated his willingness to lie.
