Obama was already part of the left on this issue so no, he wasn't pressured into it. Of course he needs the help of allies on the left. That's always a good thing. I don't see all the snide, cynical responses on this thread doing anything to help build support for the issue though.
Do you think dismissing the statement as insincere and too late to meaning anything (as many on this thread are doing) encourages Congress to go along or reinforces Obama's message in any way? It looks awfully self-defeating to me.
