Been There div ...

Having lived in a foreign country for nearly six years,  I have a little trouble identifying with the current Republican candidate fear of that there "European Socialism" bogey-man.

It's funny, that the idea of "American Exceptionalism"  should extend to everything. But, then again, Will Rogers probably summed it up best:

It always will seem funny to us United Staters that we are about the only ones that really know how to do everything right. I don't know how a lot of these other nations have existed as long as they have till we could get some of our people around and show 'em really how to be pure and good like us.

Today's WaPo has a pretty good analysis (of course the guy's a German, and we all know about them, eh ?)
