and calling me xenophobic because I point out the disconnect between people that have universal health care and people in the US ... well, good luck. I love my brothers and sisters around the world just as much as those in the US. I just don't think I'm qualified to tell them what policies they should or should not support in their own countries. I certainly don't think I'm qualified to talk about issues in their health care system because ours in the US sucks ass.

I certainly don't think I'm qualified to discuss them simply on the basis of love for one of their politicians. And that's what 90% of this is. It's great because "Obama". It's awful because it is "anti-Obama" or slights him in some way.

That's not productive. Hero worship doesn't get things done.
