[ExI] Yet another health care debate

Hey Spike, did you get a load of what the "other Damien" wrote? (i.e. not
the Cal-Tech one)  Sez he:

    >>Whether it's from Canada, New Zealand, Great Britain, or Australia,

I read it through twice, but this-here Damien (the very erudite one
with many books to his credit, or to his notoriety, or whatever),
isn't making any sense to me. I discern that the problem *may* be
that perhaps at least *two* levels of irony are piled on top of some
sarcasm, and I can't unravel it. Can you help?

Thanks,
Lee
