The Great Obama Back-to-School Scandal

Is there ANY right wing crank issue that doesn't gain currency?

"Because you see, the taxes can be such a penalty on people that there's no incentive for them to prosper and to earn more and so forth because they have to give so much to the government ..."
- Ronald Reagan's address to school kids.
.
Now, that's some old school indoctrination right there.

This stuff is the craziest thing I've ever heard. I listened to the head of the FL GOP on Hardball yesterday having a meltdown because he's afraid Obama is going to indoctrinate his kids and because Obama is attempting to impose his vision on the country and it's... wait for it... IN HIS POLICIES.

Do these boobs not understand what elections are about?
.
and yes, there's nothing controversial about asking kids to study hard and get good grades.
.
And Paul. The answer is no.

An' we don't want our media tellin' any o' these flamin' rotted barnacle-brained lunatics tha' they be exact' tha' - it'd be hurtin' their fragile self-esteem, it would...

Once again the best and brightest liberals seem to be suffering from short term memory loss>

Gephardt had a cow when Bush was going to do this. Now Republicans are nuts for doing the same.

The only explanation is that there is not any behavior or actions by liberals that is extreme or nutty, because they view it as normal behavior for them

Again, Stop lying to yourselves.

Below is what I posted in Joe's comments abo e:

What's happening in our country proves both that Democrats have far fewer looneys than the Republicans and that the MSM is biased against Dems (or feel pushed to show that they are not liberal by giving Republicans more favorable coverage overall).

Let's compare 2001 with 2009. We had a president who did not win the majority vote and who was put into office sooner than might (or might not) have happened if the recount vote had not been suspended in Florida.

Sure there were some on the left and Dems in general who were hopping mad. And I'm not saying there were not conspiracy theories (or basically just accusations that the SCotUS decision was based on politics) abounding in Dem circles.

But did we see town halls populated by Dem congress members exhorting citizens to not recognise Bush as president? Did we have months and months of angry protest meetings where Dems called Bush a commie and a Nazi?

No. The fact that Bush was accepted so quickly is very much due to Dems putting their country ahead of party politics. If we had not been willing to let the matter drop, I think the country would have been deeply divided by the time that 9/11 occurred.

Of course that is presuming that MSM would actually have covered any Dem unrest and protest meetings.

Haha that is hilarious. “Studying without the ipod in ears”. Good luck with that. I have tried that approach with little success. I am always told it helps focus and concentration especially with Math.

Ms. Tumulty:

Will your child follow the Department of so-called "Education" "suggestion" to "write letters to [himself] on how [he] can help the president"?

If so, please post his letters detailing how he (and his parents?) hope to "help" Obama. Thank you.

I hope he includes a message for high school kids to "turn off Facebook."

I would wager that it's the #1 or #2 teenage time-waster in America.

[...] back-to-school remarks didn't include any references to iPod use, so you'll have to continue waging that battle on your own with the Swampkids. He did, however, address the issue of Facebook this morning at a visit to Wakefield High School in [...]
