Leftwing Media ‘Group Think’ Not Just in America: "Bolt recounts that The Age said it was “unimaginable” that Bush could ever have teated a Muslim leader as grandly as Obama did noting that The Age said, “Imagine if, only a year ago, the President of the United States had visited Turkey, addressed its parliament, then kissed the Prime Minister on both cheeks.
The Age went on…
“That might have been considered far-fetched, but so, too, would have been the President’s affirmation that his country was not at war with Islam and that being Muslim in the US is part of the fabric of life.
“It is indeed unimaginable that George Bush would have embraced such thoughts, words and deeds.”
“Pardon?,” Bolt asks before going on to remind The Age that Bush kissed Prince Abdullah, now King of Saudi Arabia back in 2002. Bolt also wonders how The Age came up with this “fantasy” it was offering as foreign policy analysis? Of this policy history, Bolt notes that The Age said:
“(Bush’s) arms-length policy, bred out of a certain conservative caution and suspicion, certainly applied to being seen to be in too close a contact with Islamic nations, let alone within kissing distance of their leaders.”"
