Everybody Loves Barack, or, I Love the Smell of Change in a Winter Evening: Chapter 2

Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008

Mmmm…the sweet, fragrant aroma of change:

As Barack Obama’s opus, Team of Rivals, continues its rolling debut, the early reviews are in and the “critics” are full of praise for the cast:”[T]he new administration is off to a good start.”
Senate Republican leader, Mitch McConnell.

[S]uperb … the best of the Washington insiders … this will be a valedictocracy — rule by those who graduate first in their high school classes.”
David Brooks, conservative New York Times columnist

[V]irtually perfect … ”
Senator Joe Lieberman, former Democrat and John McCain’s top surrogate in the 2008 campaign.

[R]eassuring.”
Karl Rove, “Bush’s brain.”

I am gobsmacked by these appointments, most of which could just as easily have come from a President McCain … this all but puts an end to the 16-month timetable for withdrawal from Iraq, the unconditional summits with dictators, and other foolishness that once emanated from the Obama campaign … [Hillary] Clinton and [James] Steinberg at State should be powerful voices for ‘neo-liberalism’ which is not so different in many respects from ‘neo-conservativism.’”
Max Boot, neoconservative activist, former McCain staffer.

“I see them as being sort of center-right of the Democratic party.”
James Baker, former Secretary of State and the man who led the theft of the 2000 election.

[S]urprising continuity on foreign policy between President Bush’s second term and the incoming administration … certainly nothing that represents a drastic change in how Washington does business. The expectation is that Obama is set to continue the course set by Bush … ”
Michael Goldfarb of the neoconservative Weekly Standard.

“I certainly applaud many of the appointments … ”
Senator John McCain

Barack Obama is a hit, say America’s leading neconliberal militarists!

I Love the Smell of Change in a Winter Evening…

Monday, December 1st, 2008

The Great Change continues:

Barack Obama will announce his national security team today to approval from the military establishment and Republicans, distant cries of dissent from liberals and head-scratching from others.

The President-elect is expected to confirm the nomination of Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, ask Robert Gates to remain at the Pentagon, and make General Jim Jones his National Security Adviser.

All three are heavyweight figures with whom Mr Obama has policy disagreements of varying intensity, and these choices are intended to emphasise his policy of reaching out to former rivals and opponents…

Yesterday Republicans were showering praise on these selections. Senator Lindsey Graham said that Mr Gates, President Bush’s Defence Secretary, had “led us through difficult times in Iraq” and that Mrs Clinton had a “little harder line” than Mr Obama on foreign policy.

Mmmmm…Smell that change, people! Don’t it smell oh-so-good? Mmm-hmmmmm…
