Before Berlin, Obama set his steep downward trajectory by squandering the most precious post-election months on gun-control futilities and by a subsequent storm of scandals that have made his unvarying project - ever bigger, more expansive, more intrusive and more coercive government - more repulsive. Then came Wednesday's pratfall in Berlin.
There he vowed energetic measures against global warming ("the global threat of our time"). The 16-year pause of this warming was not predicted by, and is not explained by, the climate models for which, in his strange understanding of respect for science, he has forsworn skepticism.

My goal is to avoid experiencing contempt for anyone, but Mr. Will has a different perspective. What we both see clearly, though, is the absurdity of an ever expanding, ever incompetent federal apparatus that is unresponsive to anything but political expediency, unaccountable, and does so many things (for inexplicable reasons like those that drive AGW hysteria) it does none of them well.
