His Goodist Yet


Camille Paglia her most pointed yet on Barack Obama and his White House. His mission to Copenhagen comes in for some withering words:
Yes, ever since week one of the Obama administration, I have been doggedly calling for heads to roll. As months of crass ineptitude drag on, however, the blacklist of those who should be tagged for the guillotine gets longer and longer. The most recent fiasco, of course, was sending the president of the United States on a humiliating fool's errand to beg for the Olympics as a Chicago boondoggle. I cheered when splendiferous Rio de Janeiro rightfully got the gig.
(Hint--she's not a Rahm fan.) And she believes his critical moment approaches. Well, I wish Oriana Fallaci were still around to debate Paglia on this and other issues--a pair of very interesting minds. As Bret Stephens points out, Fallaci would have ranked our President Barack Obama among the Goodists. And that's not a good thing.
