Bring On the Wise Men! But Are There Any?

From Mickey Kaus at the Daily Caller:

The Obama administration is thisclose to being the object of one of the most vicious forms of condescension in the MSM arsenal: the Call for Wise Men. David Gergen almost gets there in this interview on NPR, and the night is young.

But are there any Wise Men left? I’m not so sure. The most obvious wise men are Gergen himself, who’s too cliched even for the MSM to propose with a straight face, and Bill Clinton, whose interests don’t coincide completely with Obama’s and who wouldn’t take the job anyway. Bruce Reed is in the White House already! Al Gore has gotten too weird. Jody Powell died. Even the old wise men have been partially discredited.

A commenter to the article sums up Dear Leaders situation with a zinger.

The man who thought himself wise enough to write an autobiography once he turned 30 will not be able to find anyone wiser than himself
