Olson: Obama was Right on Cordoba
In an interview with MSNBC, conservative lawyer and former Solicitor General Ted Olson explained why he fundamentally agrees with President Obama's stance on the Cordoba House:

Christie from New Jersey said it well -- that this should not be in that political, partisan marketplace."
