It is about the office...

Everyone is in an uproar about President Obama's upcoming address to the school-aged children of our nation.
Let me begin by saying, I do no like Barack Obama, and I certainly did not vote for Barack Obama. I do not agree with his politics, his agendas, or his socialist ideas on how to manage a country. That being said, he is still...by popular vote...The President of The United States of America. He deserves a modicum of respect from both parent and child alike. While I will agree that it seems strange to address our children directly when we, the parent, are not around, I would take this chance to remind everyone that George Bush Sr. did the exact same thing in 1991. This man cannot be dumb enough, or so full of himself, to think that he will be able to deliver an address that is in ANY WAY political in nature, and not suffer irreparable damage. I think he will become the "antichrist" in both Republican and Democratic minds alike (well except for maybe Nancy Pelosi).
The White House has now stated that it will release the transcript of what President Obama will say to our children on Monday, PRIOR to the address on Tuesday. I would suggest that evey parent read it before they decide to take their children out of what COULD turn out to be a very beneficial address from the President of The United States to all school age children on the importance of education and staying in school. Believe me, if I sense any attempt at "indoctrination" or political persuasion, I will choose NOT to let my children listen...but I am willing, out of respect for the office, to give him the chance to persuade my child to stay in school an pursue and education. Just my two cents...L
