“…the Obama administration, which has embodied the Left’s total embrace of realpolitik…”
That’s the nugget right there. This administration has gone hook, line and sinker for Nixonian Realpolitik in a manner that would make Tricky Dick blush. The difference is that in those days they had the excuse (note; not justification) that America had bigger fish to fry vis-a-viz the USSR. No such excuse exists today. They really think they are doing the right thing by supporting the 3rd world despots and snubbing our democratic allies.
