Jacob Weisberg, a singlarly liberal man ...

The filthy left's summer of discontent "Obama Is Too Good for Us."

“ Barack Obama's recent political difficulties have proved shattering to many of his erstwhile enthusiasts. One of them is Jacob Weisberg, editor of Slate.com, who in a column last week declared himself fed up—with America. The lesson of the debt-ceiling deal, Mr. Weisberg sobbed, is that "there is no point trying to explain complex matters to the American people. The president has tried reasonableness and he has failed." A pithier expression of this lament was the headline of an online column by liberal Republican Charles Fried: "Obama Is Too Good for Us." JAMES TARANTO cont  Weisberg is, as are all Liberals without exception,  arrogant, condescending, and as a consequence of  being cloistered from alternative viewpoints by choice, spectacularly ignorant— if not stupid— about anything more rigerous than choosing which color lapel ribbon to wear each day. Only more so. One more clip from Taranto— “ Mr. Weisberg thought he should have been, given the all-around awesomeness of the junior senator from Illinois. If Mr. Obama lost to John McCain, Mr. Weisberg concluded, it could mean only one thing: America was irredeemably racist. You heard that a lot in those days ...  Just ask Drew Westen, who noted in a New York Times op-ed that Mr. Obama "had accomplished very little before he ran for president," that he "had a singularly unremarkable" academic career, "publishing nothing . . . other than an autobiography," and that as a state senator he "voted 'present' . . . 130 times." ” Westen, a Democratic tactician, was spared the charge of racism only because he waited until this past Sunday to write that essay.
