And all this talk of Obama "basking in his success..." Obama took and continues to take a very, very low profile in this episode. He has NOT grandstanded at all.

Exactly right. I pop into Hannity's radio show now and then for research purposes and a couple of days ago he had the Mark Levine character guest hosting. He played the skipper's remarks and said, "Didja notice he didn't mention Obama once?!" As if Obama had jumped up to take credit for the whole thing.
Holy crap Batman, no matter what the outcome, the O man was going to get grief over this incident.
