I have not been doing diaries for a while because I was laid up and then really did not have much to say.
However, this dustup over President Obama's speech is the last straw for me.
But, I also think parents of school kids on here can fight back against the wingnut lunacy and their being able to control the schools.
We have heard all these lunatics wingers threatening to keep their kids out of school if the schools carry the President's address.
So, many are caving in.
I say the left blogs need to rally all progressive parents to band together and organize and fight back by calling the district and keeping your children out.
Tell them you feel showing respect to the President of the United States is more important to teaching you child then the spineless and ideological disrespect and stupidity that is being shown.
How dare these School Districts cave to the lunatics and basically legitimize their hate, vitriol and teaching young children how to show disrespect to the leader of our country.
This is just going too far.
I had alot of problems with Bush but, I would never keep a child or teach a child to show disrespect to him as our president. I think the lack of civility, the lack of common sense and the lack of manners and respect shown to obama is beyond the pale.
I see this man and wonder how he must feel knowing that people and now even innocent children are being taught to hate and revile him.
We need to stand together and fight back.
And not just with this issue but, with the take over of the fringe lunatics who are driving the discussions and the way this country is going.
It has already hurt this President's ratings and ability to get what he wants, like a Public Option, terribly.
It is weakening him and therefore, making it impossible for him to push thru alot of the progressive ideas and having to walk down a centrist path.
We need to help him.
