I get it, but Bush one was making a statement, one wasn't. I just did not like how Obama handled this statement which made him look weak when the world's eyes were on him. That clip will be around the world by now and you don't want Putin thinking he can take further advantage of what is assumed to be a weak president. That is my main point here, Obama needs to straighten his back and show strength here.
Do I want him to throw firecracker right away, no but he could have said "if this was indeed shot down, those who are responsible will be held accountable." use a big man's voice, act a little angry, that goes a long ways, not only at home but across the globe.
