The American Spectator about how much he doesn't like President Obama's choice for U.N. Ambassador: Samantha Power. One thing is clear, when he dislikes someone he really dislikes her. See his one paragraph biography of Ms. Power:
The deracinated Ms. Power is a typical Washingtonian, born in Ireland, grade schooled in Pittsburgh, high schooled in Atlanta, educated at Ivy League schools in Connecticut and Massachusetts, employed as a journalist in Yugoslavia, but really from nowhere, as homeless as a hobo. She will fit right in at the United Nations.
Summarizing her Pulitzer Prize-winning book
A Problem from Hell: America and the Age of Genocide, Orlet says she finds:
Since America has an excess of tanks, planes, and disposable young men it is our moral obligation to be the world’s cavalry. And since the Finns, Argentinians, Canadians, et al. do not have as many tank [sic] and helicopters and their young men are not nearly as disposable, they can stay home with a clear conscience.
Orlet calls Ms. Power "the pin up girl for Endless War." That doesn't sound like the Obama foreign policy of the past five years. Should we expect new activism?
