THE REAL REASON AMERICANS ARE ANGRY

THE REAL REASON AMERICANS ARE ANGRY
"watching media supporters of President Obama's health care package puzzle over the obscure motivations of the noncompliant Americans rallying against it.
'Racial anxiety,' guessed New York Times columnist Paul Krugman.
'Nihilism,' theorized Time's Joe Klein.
'The crazy tree blooms in every moment of liberal ascendancy,' historian Rick Perlstein proclaimed in the Washington Post.
While the commentariat's condescension is almost comical, the whole evil-or-stupid explanation misses the elephant in Obama's room: Americans of all stripes, it turns out, aren't very keen about the government barging into their lives."
