"A broad multiclass, multiracial movement is converging around Obama's "Hope, change and unity" campaign because they see in it the thrilling opportunity to end 30 years of ultra-right rule and move our nation forward with a broadly progressive agenda. This diverse movement combines a variety of political currents and aims in a working coalition that is crucial to social progress at this point. [ ] The struggle to defeat the ultra-right and turn our country on a positive path will not end with Obama's election. But that step will shift the ground for successful struggles going forward."

It goes on *FOREVER*. America's enemies endorse Comrade Barry.
When is someone going to come out with an ‘Ameri-Cons vs. the World’ videogame. I know it wouldn’t be a fair fight but I would buy it for Christmas.
I think Dr. Daniels should stick to writing about what he knows best, the low-life culture fostered by the nanny state.
Not since the destruction of the Twin Towers has there been dancing in the streets anywhere on the planet to celebrate events in America. It is to be hoped, of course, that it is not the same people doing the dancing.
Unfortunately, those very same people were doing a great deal of dancing. It is revealing and should be unsettling to Obama partisans just how many of America's (and not Bush's) committed enemies were applauding Obama's election.
Power is in any case often an illusion and it always has limits. Did the Iraq war deter or encourage Vladimir Putin and Dmitry Medvedev?
Probably neither. It did, however, motivate Libya to give up her own nuclear efforts and Assad to withdraw from the occupation of Lebanon. It also served to discourage Saddam Hussein from making further trouble unless he can rise from the grave, and if the Taliban are still fighting it's from caves. It did do all of that. And no one such as Putin or Medvedev who has the memory of the Soviet Union's antics in Hungary and Czechoslovakia can argue that Iraq inspired them to invade another country. No marks for Dalrymple on that one.
It might not be altogether easy to withdraw from Iraq without the appearance of defeat, which would deal a great blow to American prestige and pretensions.
Obama will do nothing of the sort, and I'm a little surprised to see the normally better-informed Dalrymple fall for the party line on this one. Any appearance of defeat in Iraq will be a sham, an illusion perpetrated to protect the international commentariat from an admission that they were wrong and Bush was right, and that the cold truth is that American won in Iraq. That is not an admission I see likely to be made unless the credit can be deflected somehow to Obama. Watch for it, it's going to happen.
I hope I am wrong in seeing an analogy with President-elect Obama...that his youthfulness and rhetorical idealism do not belie an authoritarianism. That his moralizing does not conceal a lack of scruple and contempt for due process. That by social justice he does not mean pork barrel. But I do not think the auguries are good. When I heard him promise that he would cut taxes for 95 percent of Americans, I wondered how anyone could believe it for a moment, or that he would go through the budget line by line, as he said he would. Compared to that, Fairyland is intensely real.
Here we do agree. Obama certainly was the beneficiary of the Fairyland vote, largely because its inhabitants bought into the same litany of garbage concerning Bush that so many Europeans did. Some of them are waking up at the moment to the hard truth that there are no yellow brick roads and no ruby slippers. There is, however, a Man Behind The Curtain, and his feet are made of clay.
Yet another writer utterly ignorant of Obama's backers. He should stick to writing what he knows about, which he does so extraordinarily well.
LOL did you read the entire article?
Seriously, you should, especially the comparison to Tony Blair (which one could also argue is the starting point for the true decline of Britain.)
In Delhi, Indians kissed Obamas photo.
Today thier were terrorists attacks in India against British and American citizens, SO MUCH FOR THE LOVE, CAN YOU FEEL IT? STOP WITH ALL THE NONSENSE AND GARBAGE! The big stick kept them at bay, now they know all we want to do is talk and sing kume bia ya.
HRC and the Obamacorns somehow believe that if they only wish and hope and pray hard enough, that global affairs will be OK.....
They have no chance of stopping Russia from expanding into the western hemisphere.
Russian doesn't care if we are socialist, communist or gay. They know weakness when they see it and are ready to take full advantage of liberal, democrat naivete.
Ignorant? Not at all. Perceptive is the word.
I don't think they have any intention of trying. I don't think it concerns them very much. Russian domination of eastern and even central Europe, I think they think, is the natural order of things. And the Obamans and Clintonists share a disinterest in the problems of countries who can't vote for them. Unless they hire one of their lobbying firms; then its off to the races.
What a waste of space. This is nothing more than the usual left wing drivel.
Did anyone actually read the article beyond the first line?
From nearly all the comments, I’m guessing no.
“The surrealness of it struck me yesterday at Bon Marche. The man at the exchange counter, usually so surly, asked me my nationality. I got ready to do the usual: bowing my head with shame and whispering so no one could hear: Americaine.”
I am soooooo sick of this kind of whining POS.
My uncle, and many other good young men lost their futures and lives liberating that country, on June 6th, 1944. They certainly are bowing their heads in shame from where they are now, every time tripe like this is spewn.
I know it’s not on topic,but oh well.
Agreed, Dalrymple misses very little, a by-product of his training and work experience I suppose.
BTW, this is quite a short piece for him, he’s usually very wordy indeed !
LOL! Did you read the entire article? He's an English conservative describing reactions abroad. You have to get beyond the opening half dozen or so paragraphs.
Another excellent piece by TD.
Perhaps the good doctor was sold a bill of goods. Anyway, as for American expatriates living in Paris, putting up with patronising sods. Fancy that!
No, I read the entire article twice. My statement stands.
Altogether a pretty fair piece. I understand people, especially we Freepers getting hot under the collar, I tell myself to re think before posting. What beats me is if some Americans told those patronising sods in Europe and my own native country, about the "wunnerful, wunnerful job" on whom THEY elect. Same thing for Canada too.
God Bless America.
