Progressives, never known for their sense of epistemological humility, are often fond of boasting that it is they — and only they — who are on the “right side of history.” Never mind that American progressives, going back at least as far as the depths of the Cold War, have evinced a most peculiar obsequiousness toward America’s totalitarian geopolitical foes.
President Barack Obama, the braggart who taunted then-House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) a mere three days after his first inauguration with, “I won,” was very fond of gloating how it was he — and not his partisan opposition — who was on the “right side of history.” Never mind that Barack Obama, who oversaw a most rancid realignment in the Middle East in favor of the world’s number one state sponsor of jihad, kowtowed to that terrorist regime to the tune of $100–150 billion in funding and $1.7 billion in cold, hard pallets of cash.
