I have been astounded at the vitriol displayed toward President Obama on this site. There are times when the comments here look like they migrated from Free Republic without an ounce of editing.
Today, we have a most historic vote -- one that has never been possible before. For all of you who have accused this president of selling out, not supporting gays, throwing [fill in the blank] under the bus and worse, I have two words: eat crow.
How To Eat Crow
You don't just have to grab a fork and dig in. You can sauté it and serve it up with a light mango relish -- I mean, we are all latte-sipping liberals after all. It wouldn't be right to do it any other way.
But, just in case you're having a difficult time coming up with the right way to do this, here's one recipe for eating crow that works almost every time:
Start with this:
"I was wrong."
Add:
"This is exactly the outcome I wanted and I was passionate about it. In my passion, I said things I wish I had not said."
And finish:
"I am sorry."
There's a simpler recipe that works, too. Just say "I was wrong about Obama on this. He did the right thing."
