Republicans, Religion, and the Triumph of Unreason (Editorial) from the Independent [of the UK]

It's a shame most Americans never bother to find out what the rest of the world thinks about us and our ridiculous politics.

"It simply didn't compute. How could this have happened? How could the cry of "Drill, baby, drill" have been beaten by a supposedly big government black guy? So a streak that has always been there in the American right's world-view – to deny reality, and argue against a demonic phantasm of their own creation – has swollen. Now it is all they can see."
