Far be it from Obama to politicize a situation...

Sorry, it's not tax-related. Or New Jersey-related. But my jaw dropped when I read this:

Let the authorities do their work. Don't presume; don't panic the country; don't chest-thump, prejudge, interfere, politicize (in an international sense), don't give Al Qaeda (or whomever) a symbolic victory; resist the urge to open the old playbook and run a familiar play.

The author is Marc Ambinder at The Atlantic.

And liberals in this country have avoided presumption, politicization, etc. etc. etc. since 2001? Really?

Remember You never want a serious crisis to go to waste, a comment made by Rahm Emmanuel?
