LGM on the Wingnuts:
What a colossal failure. I just don't think there's any way for Obama to recover from the fact that Victor Davis Hanson, Paul Mirengoff, Michelle Malkin, Kathryn Lopez, John Derbyshire, some dude living in his mother's basement, and Atlas Shrugs remain unpersuaded of Obama's worthiness to lead America.
Matthew Yglesias on the Cornerites:
There's some kind of reading comprehension problem here if Hays can't see that Obama's not saying it was correct of Wright to say that. Roger Clegg sees the speech as "politics as usual" which makes me think he must have been watching a very different usual politics from me up until now. K-Lo says "Any hopes anyone had that Barack Obama would be a gift to civil rights in America — that he would shake hands with Ward Connerly and really be a change died today, I think." In the speech John Derbyshire heard, "blame whitey, and raise high the red flag of socialism" was the essence of Obama's message.
Andrew Sullivan:
To read the Corner today was to be reminded that some are immune to the grace and hope and civility that Reagan summoned at his best; the anger and bitterness is so palpably fueled by fear and racism it really does mark a moment of revelation to me.
While it is no revelation to me that the right wing media in this country is fueled by fear and racism, I am grateful that these intelligent people read what those idiots on the Corner write, so I don't have to.
