Although the politics of stuff like this drives me crazy, it's a fact of life. But this involves a woman who has worked hard and helped people for her entire career. Who questioned her initial judgment and did some soul searching and knew what was the right thing to do. This is personal. She wasn't even able to tell her side of the story to her boss. She's been wronged and I think in an instance like this humanity, compassion and humility needs to trump politics.

Instead of 'reviewing' their decision, sending out Gibbs to field some questions, making people wait, they (Obama) should have come blasting out of his office and said "We were wrong!" Every minute that ticks by they're blowing their chance for redemption.
