MASQUERADING AS AN EXTREME LEFTIST TO HIDE THE FACT THAT HE IS A CORRUPT HACK

It is said that in Doctor Samuel Johnson's day, it was the custom for those traveling the Thames by boat to amuse themselves by directing jocular invective and abuse to passengers on other boats, safe in the knowledge that the water protected them from anything other than a verbal riposte. Boswell reports that Doctor Johnson once assayed this form of "water wit" with this:

Sir! Your wife, under pretence of keeping a bawdy-house, is a receiver of stolen goods!
In like manner, the cover of the New Yorker is adorned with a satirical cartoon showing a turbanned Barack fist-bumping a kalashnikov-toting Michelle in the Oval Office, with a portrait of Osama Bin Laden on the wall, and the American flag burning in the fire place. But that is just the pretence.

The significance of that cartoon has been widely discussed. The Obama campaign has denounced it, although some think that they will be able to use it as an immunization against the charge that Obama is a Muslim-inspired leftist.

The article inside the New Yorker, however, will prove far more damaging to Senator Obama's Presidential ambitions. Ryan Lizza provides ample evidence that Obama is just another hack politician, motivated exclusively by personal ambition, and willing to participate in every aspect of the "old politics" that he pretends to transcend. Flopping Aces has some of the key excerpts.

As The Astute Bloggers have repeatedly posted, this is the story which will lead to the disillusionment of Obama's children's crusade.
