President Obama Goes to Shul and Teaches Us a Lesson
One thing we know is that the Obama administration exacts discipline. They expect loyalty and they punish those who stray. So by all Washington rules, the White House and the president should have left Goldberg and the Atlantic out in the cold. Embarrassing the president, humiliating a friend and publishing an ad hominem attack using language that is far below the standard of diplomacy should have been considered treasonous. Goldberg should have been persona non grata.
Instead, presidential ego prevails and an ugly truth emerges.
