what a small world some people live in

I just left one disability forum - I think it was the proverbial straw - when somebody remarked on the Obama victory such:

I'm not American, I don't live in America and America isn't what
  it used to be. And disabled was pretty far down Obama's list
  (right after young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and

  Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay

  and straight). At least FDR was a wheelie.

I felt this guy just did not see the achievement and could not rejoice for others. Being disabled is a big part of my life but it is not my only identity. And Obama stood for that - that we are one people not segregated into our individual silos. I felt I had no room for such narrow minded people - not even their messages in my mail inbox.
