Well, not exactly, but it's still funny:

"I don't think there's any hard evidence that Obama is deliberately aping specific policies," says Iain Murray [from a right-wing think tank in DC].

"However, there is a gut feeling that he is moving away from the 'shining city on a hill', founded on the principles of self-reliance and individual genius, towards a Platonic form, as it were, of European government."

(Thanks to Catherine Atherton for the pointer.)

UPDATE:  Bryan Van Norden (Vassar) writes with an interesting question:

The article mentioning the accusation that Obama is a Platonist was fun to read.  It also reminded me of an issue that has been preying on my own mind.  Gingrich "accused" Romney of speaking French.  Okay, funny enough stuff already. But I would like to see a journalist confront Gingrich and ask him, "You criticize Romney for knowing French, but you cite French sources in your own doctoral dissertation.  Either you know French yourself, or you lied in your thesis by representing that you had read primary sources you were not familiar with.  Which is it?"
