Switzerland, Iran and Hillary LinksBlog

People do sometimes visit from abroad, where the health care systems are pervasively sane and humane, expecting the same here.


Stephanie Jane Booth of Lausanne, Switzerland, blogged her SXSW encounter with the most ordinary of American health care in A trip to Walgreens.

In response I wished Stephanie a friendly Welcome to my jungle.


Health care concerns were still on my mind when I stumbled over Sara Dopp's blog -- humane, personal, mental-health care.


Reflecting on her flight to last year's SXSW, Sara wrote less on How to Stop an Angry Man from Killing People and primarily about how to give appropriate, personal support to someone suffering from at least temporary, chronic mental illness.



Over at Frink, I offer a semi-musical warning of what may be yet to come for those of us still alive to pay the Iraq war debt: Good Night Iran [Irene], We Will Rock You


Karoli wrote a brief, straightforward assessment of Hillary Clinton’s Experience, and how Hillary has already misdemonstrated it.

Meanwhile, my recovery from a bout of flu continues apace.


Addendum: The Keith Olbermann Special -- addressed to Hillary Clinton and regarding the Geraldine Ferraro outrage -- via Crooks & Liars.
