I was struck by this Kirkpatrick quote from the Totten piece:
“Precisely the opposite is true of revolutionary Communist regimes. They create refugees by the million because they claim jurisdiction over the whole life of the society and make demands for change that so violate internalized values and habits that inhabitants flee by the tens of thousands in the remarkable expectation that their attitudes, values, and goals will ‘fit’ better in a foreign country than in their native land.”Leftists never seem to understand that their dream society is utterly intolerable to everyone else.

Someone should tell Obama; clearly, he just doesn’t get it.
