CR Edit note: In fact, the actual question should be:  "Why Are Obama's Supporters So Stupid"

It should be noted that Newsweek has devolved into a veritable caricature of left wing comedy. So much so, that despite receiving the magazine for free, I still indicated that I was uninterested in receiving future editions, after receiving it out of the blue in the first place, even while paying to receive the Charlotte Observer every three months.

I mean, we simply have to utilize something to ignite the nightly winter fires in our fireplace and it's delivered daily....besides, there are those coupons....

It seems almost impossible to believe, but the upcoming issue of Newsweek has a cover story entitled "Why Are Obama's Critics So Dumb?"

If you think we're kidding, the following picture was tweeted by @Newsweek three hours ago:

As you can see, the author is the supposedly conservative Andrew Sullivan.

Figures, doesn't it?

The Weekly Standard's Mark Hemingway wrote a few hours ago, "If in recent years it seems as if Newsweek has been descending into self-parody, it's still hard to imagine that this is real."

Indeed.

Is there anything the mainstream media won't do to get Obama reelected?

*****Update: Politico has some excerpts from the not yet published article...

“[I]t remains simply a fact that Obama has delivered in a way that the unhinged right and purist left have yet to understand or absorb. Their short-term outbursts have missed Obama’s long game … [T]he president begins by extending a hand to his opponents; when they respond by raising a fist, he demonstrates that they are the source of the problem; then, finally, he moves to his preferred position of moderate liberalism and fights for it without being effectively tarred as an ideologue or a divider.

This kind of strategy takes time. And it means there are long stretches when Obama seems incapable of defending himself, or willing to let others to define him, or simply weak. I remember those stretches during the campaign against Hillary Clinton. I also remember whose strategy won out in the end.”
