Image via WikipediaPresident-elect Barack Obama accepted George Will's invitation to break bread, and supped with Will and fellow reactionary columnists Bill Kristol, David Brooks and Charles Krauthammer.Obama apparently came to dinner without having first extracted promises that the reactionaries would share Obama's convictions, recant past positions, retract previous defamatory and patently untrue remarks, or even agree to disagree.
However, that Obama should agree to sit down with these enemies of civil liberties, coddlers of torturers and defenders of despoilers of American treasure should come as no surprise, given his campaign promises.
Reached for comment, New York Senator Charles Schumer said, "I for one am appalled. We expected 'that one' to meet with Kim Jong Il or Pol Pot or someone like that. But these guys? It's beyond incredible."
However, true to his word, Obama is reaching out to friends and foe alike, no matter how irrational they may seem.
