Debates Now Over

Instapundit posts something he found on Facebook. Here it is:
The debate over immigration is over: restriction wins.
The debate over borders is over: they are needed.
The debate over globalization is over: the era of autarky begins.
The debate over Europe is over: it is a geographic expression, not a polity.
The debate over global warming is over: it is irrelevant.
The debate over international institutions is over: only nations matter.
The debate over the People’s Republic of China is over: it is a menace to the community of nations, not a member in good standing.
Crisis is clarity.
I see much there with which to agree. Perhaps a few international institutions have limited utility. Reynolds doesn't give us a link to his source, so we'll 'credit' him with it.
