Naorman Podhoretz has "nailed" Obama in this column and revealed the fecklessness and venality of the liberal crowd who anointed and engineered his election to the presidency of the United States. What's curious is that now that liberals are turning on him they are revealing for all those who didn't see it before the emptiness and wrong-headedness of their world view, if one can call it a "view". It's really more like nihilism than socialism, or communism or even fascism. Since all these other statist "isms" have been tried on large and small scales and failed repeatedly the liberals behind Obama really just wanted power. Now that they have had that power and nothing positive has come of it, because it cannot, the radical lefties have turned on their putative leader and are second guessing him and each other. Good. They deserve each other. The rest of us who saw through this fake did not deserve him but we have him until at least 2012.
ADDED: In a few paragraphs, Rex Murphy lays the blame for this tragic mistake precisely where it belongs.
