The myth making of the Wall Street Journal.
Fouad Ajami in the Wall Street Journal:
The curtain has come down on what can best be described as a brief un-American moment in our history. That moment began in the fall of 2008, with the great financial panic, and gave rise to the Barack Obama phenomenon.
The nation’s faith in institutions and time-honored ways had cracked. In a little-known senator from Illinois millions of Americans came to see a savior who would deliver the nation out of its troubles. Gone was the empiricism in political life that had marked the American temper in politics.
Right. An election fairly won, concern for Americans and preoccupation with governance are really un-American values. Not like Tea Parties, Death Panels and mindless obstructionism.
We’ve asked before on AGI. Why do they hate America?
