> [@septimus](#): > > The **Brickhead** himself, frontrunner for Snidest Blowhard at SDMB, even started a thread accusing the President of hypocrisy. I’m not sure you read my thread, if that was your take-away. In that thread, I argue that Obama is correct, today, to that extent he argues that he has the legal power to order a Syrian attack without Congressional approval. I acknowledge that this is inconsistent with his position in 2007. But since he’s right now, and wrong then, I said: > [@Domestic law, international law, Syria, and us](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/domestic-law-international-law-syria-and-us/667432/45): > > Terr, I suspect you’re wanting to punish Obama, rhetorically, at least, for the claim he made in 2007 being so far apart from his apparent position now. > > And i don’t agree with that impulse. I do agree that Obama was wrong in 2007, but i think he’s right now. And I think we should make it “inexpensive,” for lack of a better word, for a politician to change his mind from wrong to right. That is, there’s little value in demanding he hew to a position that was wrong. > > Right? Can you explain how that thread is fairly described as “accusing the President of hypocrisy?” --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-pit-terr-and-all-the-other-insolent-morons-at-sdmb/666233)._
