Obama: Could Be Burnishing A Golden Opportunity.

They put up a trial balloon about the President addressing the nation's schoolchildren with the DOE putting out related curricula. It has received . . . some negative feedback.

IF PresBO came out and said "study hard, stay in school" that would merely be a display of a huge ego and inflated sense of self-importance, which (unfortunately) we have come to expect from our Presidents these days. (Humility? What's that?)

BUT

The curricula originally included questions and suggestions like:
"How can you help your President"
"Make a Poster showing how Obama inspired you"
"Write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president."

These speak of either
1) a narcissist out of control
2) left and right hands of the BHO administration not knowing what each other is doing
3) indoctrination comin' atcha, kiddos!

His previous actions and statements lead reasoning people to believe #3 is the correct estimation. You know who else liked mass indoctrination of schoolchildren?

But PresBO and the gang are seeeensitive to poll results. You can be sure they are rewriting the speech even now. The mainstream independent press Obama PR machine could spin a bunch of KOOKS out of the protesting parents, IF they rewrite the address so it's only offensive because it shows the President is in love with the sound of his own voice and thinks your children should be, as well. Sure they are rewriting the curricula; watch the press completely ignore that tidbit.

The impression people will receive watching the nightly news, assuming 'they' pull it off properly, is that the Presidential address was entirely benign. Those who saw nefarious intent in the week leading up to the event, they're all unreeeeeeasonable, don't you see? The Obama just wants the children to excel! Surely you are not unreeeeeasonable, are you? You don't oppose the President, do you? No, you want his plans to succeed . . . ! Sleep.

One wonders if PresBO even knows there is a controversy here. We know for certain that we will now NEVER see the original form of his speech. Come to think of it, from his past (poor) delivery off-teleprompter, it wouldn't surprise me if he has not even seen the speech yet.

Surely he already knows he will be delivering the speech. Surely. (I like to think) he isn't that much of a puppet . . . .
