If Obama believes all this, he's not just a Jimmy Carter-style liberal. He's off in Noam Chomskyland." Obama then had to call Brooks, demonstrate his commitment to hating Hezbollah, and was cleared by Brooks (for now) of the charge of insufficient devotion to fighting Israel's enemies
attention is drawn away from the larger point which is that there is a minimum amout of belligerence necessary in order to avoid complete condemnation from the pundit class. Obama passes the test, but the fact that there is a test and a script that it is necessary to follow in order to pass muster and be allowed to run for the office points to the degree to which we are being controlled by a small, self-interested group that certainly fails to have our country's best interest at heart (let alone that of humanity as a whole.)
