Here he is carrying the unabridged version of the book.
As opposed to the photo in this post.
It would be far more comforting to see him reading Churchill's A Gathering Storm.

I suppose we will have to go with fact instead of my analysis. Call me wrong on this one.

I couldnt condemn anyone just for reading a book like that,...Hear, hear!
Recall the ancient maxims declaring it a wise thing to "Know thine enemy"
...Obama was looking for pointers.
The man who follows Truth may well endure the journey alone, but the man who follows Error seeks a host to suffer with him.

>>>The title is “The Post American World” and...this photo is suspect as a photoshop job.<<<
So I downloaded the photo and looked at it using my version of Photoshop CS4.
I also saw the cut-off title of the book. That’s suspect to me.
What’s also suspect is that the original picture shows a mass of pixelation when I blow it up to 1200 percent, but the inset picture at the same resolution shows the letters clearly.
As an old photojournalist myself, your comments about shadows and so forth also make sense.
I’m with you, then, in the “suspicious” category.

the secondwhat I call the flattening of the worldis a metaphor for the rise of middle-class citizens, from China to India to Brazil to Russia to Eastern Europe, who are beginning to consume like Americans.
And there in a nutshell, is why the left will maintain a constant war against the middle class. A strong, independent minded international middle class does not beg for government dependence and handouts at every turn, and does not vote for candidates who espouse such.
The fact that the middle class can freely consume goods and resources which should be left as bountiful and abundant for the elites ONLY, really irritates them. More paupers worldwide, means more for them.

You just rocked my hobby horse. All that you said is true SO the only answer is ‘GET RID OF THE TYRANT”!! No tyrant has ever gone peacefully or by the voting booth way, they always have to be removed and the sooner, the better. CO

I agree ... but if he sucks in the middle class then he’ll have the 60% he craves dependent on GOVERNMENT.
