Obama and the Muslims
Conrad Black| National Review
I have tried diligently to detect some subtle rationale for this administration’s policy toward the Muslim world. There have been some good moves, particularly the emphasis on Afghanistan and the serious effort, after eight years of grapefruit-league tokenism, to apply all means — aid, diplomacy, and force — to produce the desired outcome there. ... |

Obama se desinfla
James Neilson| Río Negro
El triunfo por un margen respetable, si bien no abrumador, de Barack Obama en las elecciones presidenciales norteamericanas de noviembre del 2008 desató una ola de optimismo no sólo en Estados Unidos sino también en otros países. ... |

US: Obama Demagogues Private Enterprise
John Stossel| Human Events
Last weekend, President Obama pandered for votes by trashing Social Security privatization. “I’d have thought that debate would’ve been put to rest once and for all by the financial crisis we’ve just experienced,” Obama said. “(N)o one would want to place bets with Social Security on Wall Street”. ... |

Obama’s Ground Zero Mosque
Frank J. Gaffney Jr.| Big Peace
At a White House celebration of Ramadan tonight in the company of representatives of several of the Nation’s most prominent Muslim Brotherhood front organizations, President Obama announced his strong support for one of their most immediate objectives: the construction of a mega-mosque and “cultural center” at Ground Zero. In so doing, he publicly embraced the greatest tar-baby of his presidency. ... |

US- The Democratic left - Disappointed, down, despondent (And not about to rush to the polls in November, either )
The Economist Staff| The Economist
WHY, asks a Democrat leading a training session for fellow activists, doesn’t “Yes we can” work as a slogan any more? “Because we haven’t,” a jaded participant responds. Progressives, as bedrock Democrats like to call themselves, are despondent. The election euphoria of 2008, when their party secured heavy majorities in both chambers of Congress and Barack Obama won the presidency with ease, has deflated so rapidly that analysts are now diagnosing on the left an affliction they ascribed to the Republicans back then: an “enthusiasm gap”. ... |

El desafío hispano de Obama
Andrés Oppenheimer| Miami Herald
A juzgar por las últimas encuestas, y por la reacción de los lectores a mi última columna sobre la ley inmigratoria de Arizona, el presidente Obama tendrá dificultades en lograr que los hispanos salgan a votar y poder mantener el control del Congreso en las elecciones legislativas de noviembre. ... |

The new, improved Obama
Caroline Glick| Jerusalem Post
You have to hand it to US President Barack Obama. He is relentless. Just when you thought he was shifting gears - easing up on Israel and turning his attention to Iran's nuclear weapons program - he pulls out a zinger. ... |

Obama, el neocón
Libertad Digital Staff| Grupo de Estudios Estratégicos
Obama, en la mejor intervención desde que es presidente, ha cesado al general McChrystal, comandante en jefe de las tropas americanas y de la OTAN en Afganistán, sustituyéndolo por el héroe y patriota que logró el éxito en Irak, el general Petraeus. No hacía ni veinticuatro horas que Bill Kristol, el representante de los neoconservadores en América, acababa de sugerir esa misma solución en su revista, el Weekly Standard. ... |
