Obama:The second thing my supporters understand, the day I'm inaugurated, this country looks at itself differently and the world looks at America differently. And if you believe that we've got to heal America and we've got to repair our standing in the world, then I think my supporters believe that I am a messenger who can deliver that message around the world in a way that no other candidate can do.
So, I'm voting for him, but does anyone else have a problem with this kind of talk? Seriously, it gives me the creeps coming out of his mouth.
Also, this business that both sides engage in suggesting the country is broken or needs healing annoy me. We have problems, and flaws we have to work on, like any other country. Always will. But "healing?" Meh.

I actually used this word while phone banking today. In the context of "Heal the wounds caused by George W. Bush and the Republican party." Honestly, I think that's what is implied.

I still find that over the top. I'm not wounded. To the extent somebody can argue being wounded by Bush, is Obama going to heal them? No.

Just stick to making good policy. That'll do.
Meh. I don't too much mind it, I guess. Although I do see where you're coming from. It's one big ridiculous metaphor.

McCain would never attack it directly, though. It's kinda like a free pass with an easy target.

Actually, I've been avoiding too much of the thread to be calling much of it out. Doesn't mean that I agree with it, just that it makes me hate life.
