Obama's Speech to Our Children

Many GOP leaders and the right wing media said they were appalled that taxpayer dollars were being spent to spread Obama’s "socialist ideology." Glenn Beck even urged parents to keep their kids home from school yesterday.

A waste of taxpayer dollars. Keep the kids home from school. What kind of wacko talk is this. Obama is not the first President to make a speech to our school children. Both Republicans and Democrats have done this in the past. And don't these "intelligent" people know that when you keep your kids home, the school loses tax money for that day. So by keeping your kids home from school you are hurting education funding for your school. That is not very smart now, is it?

I am planning to at least read Obama's speech today and may even try to catch a video of it, so I will be able to write intelligently about it in another post. Stay tuned.
