Mark Steyn Quote

But, in an Islamophobic West, the new ground rules were quickly established: Islam trumped feminism, trumped homosexuality, trumped everything. In speeches around the globe, the 44th President of the United States affected a cool equidistance between his national interests and those of others. He was less the leader of the Free World than the Bystander-in-Chief, and thus the perfect emblem of a western world content to be spectators in their own fate.
