I also think it's fair to point out the shortcomings of the man -- and some have started to do that.
Nobody is perfect.
In fact, I'm having trouble remembering a recent President (OK, back to Nixon -- maybe not so recent), who hasn't had some kind of major scandal or huge controversy. That's all of them, from both parties.
Were it me, I'd let the country finish its time of mourning, and then reopen the debate.

I can respect that point of view, but we aren't the only medium discussing his presidency, the country is. I would never disrespect anyone that has passed away. But I do thinkyou can discuss the pros and cons of his presidency in a respectful manner.
