Russ Feingold and Jonathan Alter/Newsweek Losing It [UPDATE]

We have to pass it so you can find out what's in it:

And while Feingold did not blame Republicans, he did single out "groups" for having looked to take down Obama, and with him, Democrats in Congress.

"I started coming back and telling my staff and my friends -– way back in spring of '09 -– that something is going on out there that is pretty deadly and pretty harsh even before we had any idea what the healthcare bill was going to be," he said. "There appears to be a systematic, conscious attempt to dismantle this president, so I’m less surprised than other people.”

Boo! Cheney!

Gee, Alter . . . I wonder what that's about:

President Obama is a beguiling but confounding figure. As he has said of himself: "I serve as a blank screen on which people of vastly different political stripes project their own views.” (”The Audacity of Hope.”) It is indeed audacious that he should proclaim this consciously disingenuous attribute. And, as one reads his inaugural address, it is hard not to conclude that it was shrewdly crafted to perpetuate such confusion.

UPDATE: Baby (Baby, Baby), where is your mojo?

  1. Since he left it up to others to define him it is amusing that there are now complaints that others have done so – in ways his supporters don’t like.

  2. Newsweek published a huge sneak peek of Obama’s book, and I tried my best reading it over and over. But I just couldn’t manage, despite gobbling down all of Ann Coulter, Bill O’Reilly, Al Franken and Kirk Douglas manuscripts during short plane trips.

  3. OK, so how many people will pass by that cover, read it, and conclude that Obama is all of the above? Is it any wonder that somebody (married to Jane Harman) just bought Newsweek for a dollar? I’ll bet I could get Time for 5 bucks, it being all busted and whatnot.
