    Such a proud American that you wave the Canadian flag.

    Says nothing about chemicals in the title so my comment is perfectly relevant. I was talking about risks not politics .
    
    Your from Jersey which explains a lot.

    - And the actual topic
      
      related to household dangers in the kitchen.
      
      In what way is Obama risky to children that's not political? Could he perhaps fall on one of them, as he's somewhat tall?
