Kristol: Gulf spill is "a blow" to "Obamaism," the "notion that the federal government ... is sort of omnipotent".

Apparently, according to the man who is always wrong, the oil spill in the gulf is "a blow" to "Obamaism," which Kristol sees as the "notion that the federal government ... is sort of omnipotent".

Of course, the oil spill was caused by BP and is the responsibility of the private company BP. Quite why Kristol thinks this says anything about Obama's government - or, indeed, the power of government itself - is simply lost on me.

I suppose there are no set of circumstances in Kristol's world where the message isn't anti-Obama.
