leader of the free world

last week i heard lindsey graham (R-SC) soulfully complain that the leader of the free world had asked the american people to come through for him and we had not measured up.

i just don't even know where to start.

the free world? where is that located?

in the US police/surveillance state somewhere? in the home of gerrymandering and the gutting of the voting rights act? in that place where they can do anything to you if they call you a terrorist first?

ok, ok. let's assume he means western "democracies".

how did president obama get to be the leader of all that? did somebody run that by angela merkel? mariano rajoy brey? juila gillard?

leader of the free world.

pfft.
