Zaky puts in his two cents

.. and tries to outdo the Reuters hack: Obama is gambling that America is now mature enough to understand that machismo is not foreign policy, and that grandstanding on the global stage just won't succeed. In a new world, with other countries more powerful and confident, America's success—its security, its prosperity—depends on working with others. It's a big, bold gambit. I hope it works. Yeah, sure.

Another one jumps into the fray: The United Nations General Assembly and the G-20 summit have catapulted Obama back onto the world stage where leaders treat him like the best jock in the high school cafeteria. Even his adversaries praise him. His leadership in these forums to tighten the screws on Iran for its nuclear programs project a presidential certitude and sense of steel and authority that was sorely needed and sorely missed.

Boy, oh boy.

What do we expect? For two generations we in the sciences or economics have been looking at the Pomo-ites spread and purify their rule over all academia....and in general just shrugged our shoulders and said: "it's stupendously silly, but really what damage can it do?".
The answer, it turns out, was make a political world where the stupendously silly rules; and sanity cowers in the corner.
Shoulda seen it coming.
Shame on us.

The supply is seemingly infinite. Can they keep it up, envers et contre tout?
