‘…the sense of wounded self-esteem felt by clever people who have just been swindled’

“Spengler” details plummeting support for Obama among American Jews:

The actual phrase I heard from one important player in Jewish Democratic circles was, “Sociopath is too nice a word to describe Obama.” That was a Kiddush [festive synagogue event] conversation, so no names, of course. The difference is the magnitude and depth of the deception. (…)

 It is hard to avoid the conclusion – which I have long believed – that Obama has a profound personal commitment to reconciling America with the Muslim world which will override the usual political calculus. Given that he had a Muslim father and stepfather, was raised for four years in Indonesia, and has written with passion about his sympathy for the traditional identity of Indonesian Muslims, this is not surprising.

Obama’s personal impulses are in conflict with his evident political interests, and it is impossible to predict how things will work out.
