Those of you who grew up in the '60's will undoubtedly remember this Charles Atlas ad.

When I sent out my links to my post he other night about Obama filing a lawsuit, I said that Obama was a 97-pound weakling and that Bashar al-Assad had kicked sand in his face. Barry Rubin picked up on the theme and reversed it.

A skinny guy with an AK-47 and a young woman in a bikini he has kidnapped are walking on the beach. A muscular guy, let’s call him Mr. Superpower, wants to stop him. When the skinny guy tries to harm his hostage, the other guy, let’s call him Sam Superpower, punches him and frees the woman.

“Darn it!,” says Sam Superpower. “I’m tired of pushing other countries around and being guilty of all sorts of human rights violations, ethnocentric value judgments, social injustice, greedy imperialist behavior, and supporting dictators.” So he joins the Don Knotts Club and goes on a diet (realizing he’s been eating more than his fair share of nutritious food) and becomes very weak.

In the next scene Sam Superpower is walking on the beach and the formerly Skinny Guy, who has bulked up (with the use of petrodollars, terrorism, revolutionary Islamist ideology, ruthless dictatorship, and perhaps nuclear weapons) comes over and punches him out, then starts robbing and beating up all the nearby people, including other skinny guys.

As the (former) Mr. Superpower lies bleeding on the sand, the young woman (who has been educated in Politically Correct and Multicultural indoctrination centers, I mean schools) leaves the ex-Skinny Guy (now Big Bully) and decides to become the girlfriend of the ex-Big Bully (now Skinny Guy).

She says: “Oh Sam, you are a real respecter of international law, Political Correctness, social justice, and Multicultural egalitarianism as well as a 97-pound weakling man after all!”

Unfortunately, this is where the US is headed. What could go wrong?
