In the 'Love Me I'm a Liberal' file – Obama: Weak or Strong?
Someone named Drew Westen published a long opinion piece in the Sunday New York Times ("What Happened to Obama?," page one of the Sunday Review in the print edition) that serves as a perfect illustration of the paternalistic, condescending naiveté of American liberalism. The author is critical of the Obama presidency from the left. He lists valid complaints against Obama's policies. Yet Westen frames the problem in part as a technocratic one.
