Glad they're finally saying something, hopefully it won't vanish by next week, but it's a participation-trophy level of accomplishment.

You could see he just wanted to unload and kept stopping himself.

But I’m glad he said something.

I’m usually a bit down on former presidents saying anything, but if Obama unleashed at this point, I’d be all about it.

Hell, I even want W or Cheney to say something.
