Quote:Gabriel Schoenfeld, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute in Washington and author of Necessary Secrets, said the cross-party baying put the Obama administration in a difficult place. "There is a huge amount of pressure on them to do something about WikiLeaks."
What a piece of outright sham and bollocks. Obama being forced into doing something. My arse. Obama is "their" boy. He'll do whatever they tell him. And pols whether on the left or the right are "their" boys, and they'll do whatever they're told to do.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
