“The president stressed that this is a personal position, and that he still supports the concept of states deciding the issue on their own.” - Could he be any wimpier in his support?
Really? Your take on this is that it was a non-event?
I'll grant that the press often treats non-stories as huge spectacles, but across the political and media spectrum on both sides, pretty much everyone's take is that this is huge news.
What are you suggesting he should have said or done?

Yes. He could have said nothing.
This small equivocation, if it was even that since states are the ones who set marriage laws, doesn't diminish how unprecedented this is.
The president makes a bold statement in favor of the status quo. Yay.
