Why is the Old Redneck not surprised?
You really need to read this.
Florida GOP Chairman Jim Greer helped get the protests against Obama's school speech going last week, and the Orlando Sentinal's Scott Maxwell shoves Greer's own petard up his ass.
There once was a political operative who loved to tell crowds he had a
simple way of explaining to children the difference between
Republicans and Democrats.
"Republicans get up and go to work," he would tell his son.
"Democrats get up and go down to the mailbox to get their checks."
This man not only talked to his son about Republican values, he went
into public-school classrooms and talked about them as well.
That man is Jim Greer — the same Jim Greer who, as chairman of the
Republican Party of Florida, just threw a nationwide hissy fit,
claiming that the classroom is no place for politics and Barack
Obama's "indoctrination."
One Seminole County mother, Barbara Wells, remembers the day Greer
spoke to her son's sixth-grade class.
"My son said he made some sort of Hillary Clinton joke," she recalled.
Ah, well. It's Labor Day weekend and the Old Redneck has a lot of beer to drink and steaks to grill.
