Obama thinks Americans stink too.
Tell me, who meets your standards when it comes to hand washing?
Well, for one the nursing student in Africa who managed to keep from contracting ebola from all three ill family members by thoroughly washing her hands in a chlorine solution.
I’m not sure why it is so offensive to some to admit that there are things we ( as Americans) don’t do well. I happen to think there are many wonderful things we do do well. I did not say I think Americans stink, I said they stink at hand washing and since you brought up Obama one of his more frustrating habits is not taking any accountability for his mistakes. If we know that hand washing correctly helps prevent the spread of infectious disease why not do it? Soap and water are cheap compared to fancy hazmat kits.
