Please, No More Teachable Moments

Victor Davis Hanson "We have learned that President Obama has a bad habit of impugning the motives of those with whom he disagrees. In the Gates case, he rushed to condemn Crowley and the police. Arizonans were not to be seen as desperate citizens trying to enforce federal law, but instead derided as bigots who harass minorities when they go out to get ice cream. And in the mosque case, the president disingenuously implied that opponents of a Ground Zero mosque wanted to deny the legal right of Muslims to build religious centers."....
"Obama has spent most of his life around academics, lawyers, journalists and organizers. That insular culture tends to pontificate and lecture others far more than do action-oriented business people, soldiers, doctors and farmers -- the doers who are few and far between in this administration."

Obama Enters Another Controversy  "It is becoming apparent for all to see that a man who has made his name as a community organizer does not have the skills to be president of these United States."...."... It is above the pay grade of a community organizer. That is what our president is. Increasingly, it is clear that the Democrats brought down on the country a community organizer as president. Maybe in the future, they will consider experience a qualification for the presidency. Possibly the age of charisma is behind us. Possibly Obama even lacks that dubious quality." Emmett Tyrrell.
