Then let me doubly apologize for getting a little snippy with you. First, for misunderstanding your target and, second, just in general, I've been up for over 24 hours doing BS work and I may have allowed myself to take a portion of that frustration out in my post.
That said though, I think you are mis-characterizing Marowitz's critique of Obamania if you're shoring him up as, essentially (and sorry for letting my inner-nerd show), a closet Vulcan. I suppose it's possible that I'm the one projecting onto him and not you, but my reading reveals him to be arguing for the primacy of objectivism, but by no means to the exclusion of inspiration/passion/emotion.
