President Obama's Civilian Soldiers

By Christopher Chantrill

Everybody is outraged and disgusted by our divisive politics, from Jewish bubbies in Florida to AT's own Rick Moran.  The rest of us just think that President Obama is incompetent.  "Obama doesn't have the experience, character, or personality to be president. To put it flatly: he's in over his head."  That's Barry Rubin.

And if he's not incompetent he is polarizing, writes Peter Wehner.  And that from the candidate whose "core claim"
wasn't simply that he would heal the planet; he would also heal the nation's political breach. He would elevate the national debate. Reason would prevail over emotion...  Obama would "turn the page" on the "old politics" of division and anger.
