“One of the things that we have to change in this country is the idea that people can't disagree without challenging each other's character and patriotism. I have never suggested that Sen. McCain picks his positions on national security based on politics or personal ambition. I have not suggested it because I believe that he genuinely wants to serve America's national interest. Now, it's time for him to acknowledge that I want to do the same. Let me be clear: I will let no one question my love of this country.” PeopleWantBelieveIdeasCountryCharacterAmericaI BelieveInterestChallengesClearSecurityPositionAmbitionPicksLet MeAcknowledgeDisagreeNational SecurityMccainNational Interests Author:Barack Obama

“The Olympic Games are for 'the youth of the world,' but they're organized and scored by countries. It's no surprise that countries treat them as vehicles of national pride, and assume that their people will be most interested in their own athletes. So anybody who was saving up to write an angry letter, blog post, or op-ed about NBC's chauvinistic coverage: don't bother! They're actually more above-the-fray than most. Also, their coverage is not shown anywhere except America - I know, it's because I can't get it that I'm watching Women's Air Pistol - so can't ruffle feathers elsewhere.” PeopleKnowsWorldWritingI CanCountryAmericaGamesAirYouthPrideLettersTreatsAngryAssumingSurpriseAthleteSavingPostsBotherOrganizedVehicleElsewhereFeathersBlogsBecause I CanCoveragePistolsOlympic GamesFrayNbcRufflesNational PrideSaving Up Author:James Fallows
