As always, Obama’s first inclination is to doubt his fellow citizens. That’s why the willingness to swallow his policies is always seen as a test of voters’ values. He is our bridge to world approval, you see.
It’s a one-way street, of course. Terror attacks are never a test of Islam’s values, and he doesn’t demand that Muslims stand united against terror.
The dynamic is bizarre. Americans are attacked and, in return, are warned by their president to behave. Obama used that formula to defend the proposed mosque at Ground Zero, saying it was important that “we stay focused on who we are as a people and what our values are all about.”
Apparently, the president sees the Constitution as a suicide pact.
