Obama's pulled punches as the true political correctness
http://pmcarpenter.blogs.com/p_m_carpenters_commentary/2007/07/obamas-pulled-p.html
There, yesterday, was the Washington Post's neo-post-realist, Charles
Krauthammer, piling on by squaring off the "grizzled veteran" vs. the
"clueless rookie," and having a delightful time doing it. Any
opportunity to flex brawn over brains is a welcome one for
conservatives of a geopolitical bent, as is every opportunity to puff
their much-preferred opponent.
Krauthammer was positively giddy about Senators Clinton and Obama's
Monday night rumble over the "vision thing." As he recapped it, Obama
-- "clueless rookie" that he is -- would be so foolish as to waste
"the prize" of negotiation with foes, while Clinton -- "the grizzled
veteran" -- is admirably tough, tough, tough. Charles likes tough; I
suppose because it's worked so well for the past seven years.
