Abroad, some really creepy people are lining up to test Obama's world view of "Bush did it/but I am the world": The North Koreans are readying their missiles; the Iranians are calling us passive, bragging on nukes and satellites; Russia is declaring missile defense is over and the Euros in real need of iffy Russian gas; Pakistanis say no more drone attacks (and then our friends the Indians say "shut up" about Kashmir and the Euros order no more 'buy American").

Summarizing yesterday's FCP discussion. But, don't worry, be happy, says Pepe.

If he doesn't quit the messianic style and perpetual campaign mode, and begin humbly governing, then he will devolve into Carterism—angry that the once-fawning press betrayed him while we the people, due to our American malaise, are to blame.

Most likely scenario. Not inevitable, but p>0.7.

Devolve into Carterism? Shit, this schmuck started at the Carterism that Carter left off in '80 at the beginning of his campaign.

He acted like some healing black Prince Myshkin (it was AA than nailed Carter as Myshkin a long time ago) out to redeem our country's moral failings and then ended up the whipping boy for the rest of the world.

It's coming, boys.

Derb is good, especially after a dose of single malt. BTW, have you guys read his book on Riemann?

Nope. Surprising he'd write about math.

Derb was a math major in London. His book won a prize.
