“In perhaps the most amusing effort to discredit President Obama’s plan for nationalized health care - if not the most ridiculous - US financial newspaper Investor’s Business Daily has said that if Stephen Hawking were British, he would be dead.”
The right-wing nutjob who wrote the Investor’s Business Daily editorial did not know that Hawking is a UK citizen who lives in the UK. Furthermore, the writer didn’t know that Hawking has been cared for by the National Health Service for over 40 years. I did wonder how he could have assumed that Hawking is American. Then I read a comment somewhere that pointed out that Hawking’s synthesised voice has an American accent. I’d never heard of the Investor’s Business Daily before, but it must be staffed by idiots.
In the afternoon my wife and I had a little quarrel which I reconciled with a flourish… It is to be observed that the flourish was performed on the billiard table.
