That's the luxury of these people who criticize in retrospect. They can mold their criticisms and spin their opinion after the events happen.

Have you noticed that since word came out that Obama is the one to authorize the snipers taking their shot, the conversations has shifted from "He doesn't have the balls" to "he should have held more press conferences"?

I've been getting a lot of "oh well, he should have..." or "oh well, he didn't really make the call..." from right wingers that I've talked to.
