Skeptics among us
In recent interviews with News India Times, a surprising portion of the usually pro-Obama Indian Americans revealed widespread hesitations over President Obama, his proposed health care reforms and the government-run public health insurance option.
While many interviewees were pro-reform and happy with their current health plans, many revealed that they were without health insurance. Yet another group revealed doubts about the place of the U.S. amongst the world's most developed countries and others expressed hesitation over the financing and administration of the public option.
"Obama isn't tackling the problem," said Sriram Sundarraj, 22, a financial analyst from New York, N.Y. "He's doing it because it was a campaign promise."

Die Merkel blamiert Deutschland auf ganzer Linie
The criticism of the Bundeswehr's airstrike in Afghanistan highlights the meanwhile battered reputation of Germany. Even its allies have already received the impression that Germany does not guarantee an effective protection of human rights.
The television pictures can hardly hide the fact that the political prestige of the Merkle is already ruined. On one of the last G20-summit the Merkle had already to rush after the other heads of government so that the cameramen could film her - strenuously grinning - at least in front of Barack Obama's back of the head.
With respect to growing resentment among allies about the difficult human right situation in Germany the Merkle sent a note of protest to Germany's allies and summoned ambassadors to the foreign ministry.
Merkle's farce has to be stopped as soon as possible.
