This is a comment on an article titled "SBY and Obama's healthcare fiasco," (the Post, Feb. 23) written by Yohanes Suleman.

As an American citizen living in Indonesia I did not favorably read your rather biased point of view on US President Barack Obama and the multitude of problems he faces, most all from the previous Republican administration.

Your commentary I found to be the same old conservative party line. The conservatives (Republican's) are quick to criticize but never come up with any constructive ideas or solutions. For some in the US, the Republicans are known as the "Party of Nope" (no to any and everything).

I have to assume you are not an American citizen but yet you feel perfectly comfortable pontificating on our political issues. It seems to me you might be a bit more humble and partial to the country that gave you your fine education.

Rather than malign the political processes in another country I should think it better you use the skills you acquired in America to resolve the many problems Indonesia faces.

I am quite sure if I were to write a critical essay on your government, your president, that Indonesian citizens would be quick to tell me to mind my own business and they would be correct.
