Obama Takes Refuge as a Scoundrel
"Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel" said Samuel Johnson.
Well, not always. But President Obama has placed himself squarely in that category that Sam condemned.
One can rightly love one’s country for the values manifest in its government and culture. The United States was founded on the principle that all individuals are endowed "with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."
