    I'm not crazy about this plan. If he wants to address kids, that's fine, but he should do that with their parents present. It just makes me uncomfortable.

    Thankfully, our local schools don't begin session until 2 days after this little gem.

    Republican or Democrat, I don't care, school is for teaching, not politics.

    Pres. Bush caught hell from the Democrats for doing this in 1991, but it's okay now?

    Keep the nitwits from DC in DC, and out of the classroom.

    Lets see, it was ok for President H.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan to
    address school children, but not ok for President Obama??? This is just
    more fodder to feed the paranoid fantasies of the seriously unhinged.

    I had a wonderful epiphany last night.

    BO had this 'vision' of being a Pied Piper and leading the U.S. on a wonderful journey to enlightenment, team work and all things utopian.

    His 'business model' was based on all the work he had done in Chi-town.

    I don't know if to laugh at, or feel sorry for his naivete.

    This is another example of his speaking before thinking, backtracking, then thinking about speaking.

    God, this is another reason to really look at exactly what this guy wants from us and to let him know that if his kids are 'off limits', so are the rest in the country.

    The last thing that bugs me about his 'talking the talk' was all the BS about his kids going to a public school.......

    Hehehehehe.

    Repeat???


    Please elaborate. What did HW Bush say in his speech? Which Democrats,
    and what was their criticism? Enquiring minds want to know.

    The uproar from that speech is also mentioned in every AP article about the speech I've seen.
