Andrew Sullivan: "King Barack I."

Oh! The disillusionment!
Many of us supported this president because he promised to bring back the constitutional balance after the theories of Yoo, Delahunty, et al put the president on a par with emperors and kings in wartime. And yet in this Libya move, what difference is there between Bush and Obama? In some ways, Bush was more respectful of the Congress, waiting for a vote of support before launching us like an angry bird into the desert.

Understatement much? Of course, Bush had years of being told he was stupid and Obama has had years of being praised for his eloquence and intelligence and decision-making ability. Kind of makes you rethink the whole self-esteem rigmarole.

Knowing Sully's penchant for the gynecological, this is just wrong:

Hillary Clinton, channeling her inner Cheney...

King Barack: ...Pairs of male elephants to be released into the forests of America. There it is hoped that they will grow in number and the people can tame them and use them as beasts of burden.
Anna: But your majesty, I don't think you mean pairs of MALE elephants
Andrew Sullivan: Shut up. Leave him alone.

I see I'm not the first to note this. But really, it's a surprise that it took two comments to land on this point, since it's so obviously odd.

But, I agree: the angry bird thing is hilarious.

He's just trying to build up credibility for when he endorses Obama in 2012.

Pastafarian said...

Maybe the "angry bird" thing is in reference to falconry. It was popular amongst noblemen and kings.

Which, I guess, would make Khaddafy a bunny rabbit.

It's an odd reference, and wouldn't be the first thing I'd think of as I searched for a biting metaphor.

Palladian said...

It's hard to believe I used to read Sullivan. Aside from his manic depressive political temperament (he's either ELATED! and GUSHING! or he's in DESPAIR! BETRAYED! and uttering LAMENTATIONS!), his writing is simply cringe-inducing, full of banalities, bad metaphors and easy conclusions. It's the irritating tone of someone trying to simultaneously impress the teacher and make the kids think he's "cool".

Charlie Martin said...

Jason (the commenter) said...

Andrew Sullivan, next year, on all the TV shows which want a "conservative" voice (to show they're balanced): "I've been a harsh critic of Obama, but candidate X is SO much worse than him I just have to vote for the Democrats."

Palladian said...

Any girl that has had Sullivan trying to stealthily slip his Speculum of Truth past her mons veneris is, by definition, an angry bird.

Geoff Matthews said...

Jason the commenter nailed it. Sullie will still vote for him.
And if Obama pushes same-sex marriage, all will be forgiven.

Myself, I find the manic aspects of Sullivan distasteful, even when he supported the Iraq war.

Trooper York said...

King: I do not remember such words.
Anna: I remember them. You said you would close Gitmo and not impose a single payer mandate.

Oh, no. There goes support from the gay community, too.

And, today's Wa Po also had some negative articles.

What if it's like watching LBJ reading the newspapers back in 1967, watching Obama now?

Let alone Donald Trump getting a regular spot on Fox Monday's. What's the left got? Drummer boys? Andrew Sullivan just dropped his.

y'know, i kinda liked andy way back when he was delineating all the valid reasons for bush's war in iraq and the wisdom of his middle east policies in general...but now, in retrospect, he thinks that bush was an "angry bird" ?!? whatever, dude.

Carol_Herman said...

Starting in 2006, when Dubya grew close to Condi. And, Condi danced with the French. And, others. Dubya's poll numbers tanked. By the time he left office his "popularity rating" if you want to call it that, was at 31%.

McCain was also the wrong choice.

What can the democraps do if Obama isn't interested in leaving? What if Q-Daffy Duck remains in Libya?

Well, wouldn't Donald Trump at least promise to build casinos? Libya's one long coastline.

Can Obama take the heat?

Jason (the commenter) said...

Carol Herman: Oh, no. There goes support from the gay community, too

Sullivan is not the voice of the gay community. He's not even American.

No it's not. Sullivan is an excellent writer. After all, how many writers can launch us like an angry bird into the desert.

So, does Andrew believe Obama has been corrupted by power or that he was a lying sack of shit when running for president?

Unknown said...

Asheville is on point. Dubya went through six months of debate and soul-searching before giving the order. Andy is aggrieved because the Vacationer in Chief and the Furies didn't observe the War Powers Act, not because this is a fool's errand.

Little Zero now has us in what isn't even a civil war if reports of the 1000 rebels being all there are happen to be true.

We've taken sides in a rumble where we're backing Al Qaeda.

Christ, I don't ever want to hear the shiloh/PB&J/some phony folksys, J/Jeremys, or Alpha/franglo/Montaigne/Freders ever talk about how stupid Conservatives, Libertarians, Republicans, or Tea Partiers are or hear the usual Kos cliches and non sequiturs ever again.

This is the most idiotic performance I've ever seen or read about by any Administration.

And those "Miss Me Yet" signs with James Buchanan are going to become a lot more familiar.

Sullivan chooses to forget that when Obama was elected president his party had large majorities in Congress and were guaranteed even larger majorities.

How did that constitutional balance work out, hmmmm?

Always, with Obama revisionism, there's this ignoring of the obvious, topical, facts.

Sully is just scratching the surface...

We supposedly have two major political parties here in Amerika. You can choose the Republikans, who last lost the presidency because their guy in office thought he could do whatever he wanted, ignoring Congress and the law and the will of the people. Or you can choose the Democrats, who have now shown that their guy's administration will do whatever it wants, ignoring Congress and the law and the will of the people.

They're all social engineers. They're all big government. They've both put in place significant roadblocks to anyone from outside the system. They've solidified the support of the non-political aristocracy (read: lobbyists and interest groups!) They're all focused on short-term apparent wins, and secrecy, secrecy, secrecy... never let anyone on the outside see your mistakes. Like Don Corelone telling Santino:

Whatsa matter with you? I think your brain's goin' soft. … Never tell anybody outside the family what you're thinking again.

The Republicans and Democrats are the same... they're the fucking Establishment! And who is the opposition? The Paul family, Kucinich, and a few others here and there. A pretty pathetic opposition.

In this sort of environment, without any effective checks and balances, and with a two-party system that has effectively morphed into a single-party State, of course the President will act like a king... or a mob boss. Why? Because he can!

jim said...

The Cheerleader=Nerd thesis is dubious.

When the critique of Obama is "Libya proves that he's got the Boy-King Flu just like Bush" it delegitimizes that critique.

Bush left NCLB & a Prescription Drug bailout for seniors. Obama is leaving more new Acts than you can shake a stick at - from ACA to Lily Ledbetter.

The prelude to Iraq was a frantic circus of brinksmanship & BS. The prelude to Libya was getting Arab League approval & (presumably) planning & assessment of the situation. Because of its all-air, no-ground-troops Rapid Strike Force orientation, action in Libya has been far swifter than it was in Iraq (mobilization logistics are a bitch). Nor has Obama been talking about the need to invade Libya since before his election.

PROTIP: Making existing information fit a narrative may not be as successful as making a narrative fit existing information.

Relevant critique of Obama on his real political sins (quietly expanding Bush's epic erosion of basic civil liberties & privacy, the militarization of US police forces continuing without a hiccup, his Goldman Sachs All-Stars economic team) is amazingly rare on the American Right for some reason.

IT IS STILL A MYSTERY.

Does anyone know how Sullivan's career is actually going since he bumped his head? Does someone like him have some kind of metric like ratings for TV or radio people; maybe Blog traffic, groupie count, condom usage, anything? I'm curious, he seems to have lost a lot of respect over the last few years, but has it hurt?

The Woodstock Times is having a tough time with Obama's military adventure.

When Bush was in office, the editors were all about war crimes and innocent people killed and cities reduced to rubble. Oh, the horror!

Now that Obama is doing the same thing, the editorial (written by a Pete Seeger disciple) is thoughtful and hopeful.

So, it war is really evil and murderous when waged by Republicans. Not so when waged by Democrats.

What make's Sullivan's comment doubly amusing is that, at the time, he was complaining that Bush was taking TOO LONG to go to war with Iraq.

Perhaps a lengthy post admitting that he personally is a histrionic twit with a knack for figuring things out approximately three months after the rest of us do. That would be a start.

Swinal Flew...(or understanding the Andrew Sullivan Angry Bird Cultural Reference.)
"Launched like an angry bird" is a reference to the highly addictive top ranked Finnish Designed Game App for the iPad, iPhone, (and other available platforms) in which a variety of angry birds are in sequence "slingshot launched" with a slight movement of the finger on the screen to destroy the heavily entrenched mean, nasty pigs who have stolen the egg treasures of the angry birds.

I am sure CAIR will be all over the hapless Sullivan for the clear implication that Muslims are the pigs to our angry birds. Imans will issue a fatwa calling for his death for the insensitive swine insult against the religion of peace. Oh the (in)humanity.

Nobel Peace Prize means war.

The Transparency Award from the "open government community" was rescheduled to a secret closed meeting.

"Closing Guantanamo" means keeping it open.


One begins to detect a pattern.

Like Clinton, raised fatherless, 'boy-prince' treatment fostered narcissism and pathological lying.

The Orwellian irony of words losing their meaning is not Machiavellian but meandering and meaningless, at least to Obama. His pragmatism is aimed at Himself only. All else is easily ignored.

I see less and less how McCain would have been worse.

"We are not at war in Libya."

You can engage in any kind of semantic game you want, but weapons are being used to kill people and break things. Now you can argue if you want, that those people need killing and those things need breaking, but you can't really argue that what's happening isn't war. The targets of all that expensive military hardware certainly aren't fooled by such Newspeak.

Wow. Wow. Wow. This blog is, as ever - a mere echo chamber.

Mary Beth isn't 'probably' right, she's completely and totally right. Angry Birds is only the most popular game on the planet right now. That's what Sullivan is referring to. His audience, at least, is hep enough to grasp the reference. All you guys can do is mock what you don't understand.

Which is no different than usual, actually.

I'm considered, in the relentlessly liberal area in which I live, a staunch conservative. Yet I'm not so clueless and tone-deaf that I have no idea what's going on - even among people I disagree with.

I actually LISTEN to the other side, and consider what they have to say on its own merits. Often I find their arguments without merit, but I don't stop listening just because I generally disagree. (This is how you LEARN.)

But the Althouse crowd? They stopped listening ages ago. They come here only to reassure each other how correct they are.

THAT, they can hear. That's what they want to hear.

What both jim (who I'm still not sure isn't some sort of sarcastic parody of an avid Sullivan reader) and others keep missing in their timelines is the decade (give or take a few months) that we spend patrolling a no-fly zone in Iraq and periodically bombing Saddam's infrastructure to try to force him into compliance with various UN resolutions. They are also missing the two weeks of dithering of the Obama administation when the rebels were winning and a Lybian no-fly zone that might have actually toppled Kahdaffi. Instead Obama (Hillary, really) went from zero to kinetic miltary action in about 24 hours when it looked like the whole movement would be snuffed out.
