...Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin speaking of her gay friend's "choice," the endless seven minutes of Bush sitting still during the onset of 9/11, pretty much any comment from Dick Cheney. When Obama was elected, many of the millions who voted for him wept from a mixture of deep relief and optimism - only to be mocked afterward by Republican pundits, who would begrudge Obama anything.

Deep cultural and political divisions remain with a country that is, at once, one of America's closest economic and political allies in the region but also the principle exporter of an austere brand of Islam that has been exploited by jihadists around the world - and also the home country of most of the 9/11 hijackers.
