You mean platitudes and appearances fooled liberals again?
IMO this article by Noonan symbolizes the sea change that occurred in the last week or so...and that is that the "friends of Obama" have come to realize something profound.
'they are concluding that the president isn't "the person of integrity and even classiness they had thought."'
If his friends were questioning Obama's commitment to a certain agenda OR to his openness to change OR his tendency toward a certain kind of error of judgment OR his tin ear toward public opinion OR even the fact that he might harbor some racist tendencies...that would be damaging enough.
But when his friends and supporters "conclude" that Obama isn't a person of INTEGRITY they are on the verge of turning into "scorned lovers"...and that will not just ignite a firestorm of anger toward Obama but will also deprive him of the shelter behind which he has hidden his past.
IMO, the sh!t is about to hit the fan!!!
