He just said that everyone deserves a second chance, in referring to Michael Vick, he didn't make a speech praising the guy or anything.

"Philadelphia Eagles Owner Jeffrey Lurie said Obama called to congratulate him for giving Vick a second chance.

"The president wanted to talk about two things, but the first was Michael,'' Lurie said, according to King. "He said, 'So many people who serve time never get a fair second chance. He was ... passionate about it. He said it's never a level playing field for prisoners when they get out of jail. And he was happy that we did something on such a national stage that showed our faith in giving someone a second chance after such a major downfall.''

So it was more about people who have served time getting a second chance than any praise of Michael Vick as a human being.
