21. President Obama has responded to Sandy Hook with such grace and lack of ego.

It's just incredible. I don't always agree with his policies, but I cannot remember a president who was so just plain human and kind. I cannot remember, and my memory of presidents goes back to Truman and Eisenhower. I can't remember any who had the compassion and understanding of Obama.

Please proceed, gentlemen pinboy3niner Jan 2013 #1
