Last night I was watching the news, as is my custom, and the story about Obama’s “Dear Leader” speech to the nation’s school children came up. And no, I am not going after Obama here, although he keeps doing one creepy thing after another. Let’s just not have any missile parades, all right?
Rather, I am going after some gentleman from the opposition, whose name and position I forget. But he was waxing eloquent about how he didn’t want the prezzyydint bringing any of his socialism into our schools. But this is like getting whipped up because you saw somebody dumping water into the lake. Bringing socialism to the government schools is bringing coals to Newcastle, as they used to say. “You just keep your message about universal government-run health care away from my kids, thank you very much. They are too busy to bother with you and your socialist agenda. That’s because they are working all day in this universal government-run school.”
Just deranged and unhinged. President Obama is getting plenty of stiff opposition (for which I am grateful), but he is not getting very much consistent opposition. If you think the government can’t run things, then get your kids out of there. If you think they can run things, as evidenced by your kids continued presence in that school, then shut up about health care already. I would prefer a government doctor looking into my kids’ ears to a government teacher training their hearts and souls.
