The Presidents' Club

President-elect Obama must have either an enormous capacity for forgiveness, or a short memory.

On Friday night, he told CNN’s John King that he has “always thought” Bush was a “good guy.”
What a difference eight months can make.
“I mean, I think personally he is a good man who loves his family and loves his country,” said Obama.
“If you look at my statements throughout the campaign, I always thought he was a good guy,” Democrat Obama said, when asked in a CNN interview whether he still stood by his campaign trail criticisms of the Republican president.
“I think he made the best decisions that he could at times under some very difficult circumstances. It does not detract from my assessment that over the last several years we have made a series of bad choices and we are now going to be inheriting the consequences of a lot of those bad choices.”
