Mark Steyn on Obama's "bitter Americans" comment

Once again Mark Steyn hits the ball out of the park with this piece that perfectly captures where Obama was coming from with his "bitter Americans" comment and why it was so erroneous. He notes that Obama and so many on the Left seem to think that Americans that vote against European-style big government are stupid for doing so. They (the Libs) think that Americans who vote against big government liberals are voting against their own self interests. However, as Steyn points out:

"Europeans did "vote for their own best interests" – i.e., cradle-to-grave welfare, 35-hour workweeks, six weeks of paid vacation, etc. – and as a result they now face a perfect storm of unsustainable entitlements, economic stagnation and declining human capital that's left them so demographically beholden to unassimilable levels of immigration that they're being remorselessly Islamized with every passing day."

Period. Dot. Bingo.
