Spike Lee says he's taking the Barack Obama high road in fued with Clint Eastwood??!!

I'm sure Obama is thrilled..............
MTV:
In an interview published this morning with The Guardian, multiple Oscar winner Clint Eastwood said of Spike Lee that “a guy like him should shut his face.” In an interview conducted today with MTV News, Spike Lee kinda, sorta said, “OK.”
“I’m going to take the Obama high road,” the filmmaker said, refusing to trade any more barbs with Eastwood or elaborate any more over perceived inaccuracies in the recent “Flags of Our Fathers.” “It’s not a feud.”
But why do Clint’s statements have everyone asking of Spike if “he feels lucky?” While conducting interviews last month for his newest film, “The Miracle at St. Anna” Lee said, “There were many African-Americans who survived that war and who were upset at Clint for not having one [in the films]. That was his version: The negro soldier did not exist. I have a different version.”
