Will: Obama’s UN Address a ‘Pastiche of His Golden Oldies’ (National Review Online)

President Obama’s U.N. address on Wednesday was a “pastiche of his golden oldies,” says George Will, who drolly remarked on the president’s main points.

After “the usual invocation of History, which is a proper noun to progressives,” the president declared, with regard to Russia: “‘While small gains can be won at the barrel of a gun, they will ultimately be turned back if enough voices support the freedom of nations.’ So it’s voices against guns,” observed Will. “I’m betting on the guns, and I bet Putin is, also.”
