Stay Away from My Kids

The Obama administration has made unprecedented overtures to the young people in it's first year in office. Its getting a little sickening.

First it was the tapping of elementary school children to run the US census. Materials will be sent out to 56 million students so they can help get the 2010 census numbers. This data is collected every 10 years and used redraw political maps for local, city, state and federal elections. Hmmm, isn't this what ACORN was supposed to be heavily involved in before they were exposed? I don't especially like using kids to carry this water.

Then Obama had a nationwide address to school kids. Thankfully the protest over it created a tamed down "do good in school" speech without any political overtones. To be fair, it was a good speech, but imagine if there was no bright light of public scrutiny. Now were learning that school administrators who didn't carve out time for that are losing their jobs. Makes me glad we homeschool especially with these stories: Mandatory Gay Day for kids K-5 in CA, Gay High School in Wisconsin.

Now, here is the latest gesture toward kids. The EPA, under the leadership of Dr. Stephen Chu, is going cross country selling global warming to schoolchildren. Of course we don't call it "global

warming" anymore because its getting cooler and will continue to do so as we experience a season of low sun spots. So now its called "Climate Change" and we have to "fight it" or "confront

it" according to chairman Chu. Talk about a nebulous battle..."fight climate change?" Are you kidding? Nope. Read it five times in their press release (linked above). This is the new windmill children are being told to chase down, the mythical cult of manmade global warming.

Now this latest story about the National Endowment for the Arts being used as a mouthpiece to parrot the healthcare party line if individuals want extra funding from the Government. Most of these groups target and advertise to the younger generation.

It is enough to drive you mad. I never thought I'd quote Pink Floyd but, "Hey [Government] leave those kids alone."
