Barack Obama appeared Sunday on CBS’ “Face The Nation,” NBC’s “Meet The Press,” ABC’s “This Week,” CNN’s “State of the Union” and Univision’s “Al Punto,” but he’s likely saving his funniest material for Monday night, when he guests on “The Late Show With David Letterman.”
The Obama visit will mark the first time Letterman interviews a sitting U.S. president.
He’ll be Dave’s only Monday guest.
The president is stumping for health care reform, something I’ve been really hot to explore since I saw Michael Moore’s documentary “Sicko,” which demonstrates that socialized medicine seems to be working exceedingly well in capitalistic democracies like Canada, Britain, France and Italy:
I know we have a lot of readers in Canada, Britain and other places that indulge socialized medicine, and I’d be keen to hear if they think their health care systems are as horrible as American politicians make them out to be. I’ve spoken to Americans who have fallen ill overseas and express astonishment at the free health care they receive there.
Can filthy foreigners really have better health-care systems than we God-fearing Americans?
Here’s a supercute English girl’s appraisal of the British system:
If the president has crunched the numbers and believes he can give us affordable universal health care by raising only the taxes of people with annual incomes north of $250,000, honestly, what's not to love?
