Wrong. I never imagined the outbreak of right-wing crazy that Obama's gesture would provoke, and this time it's hard not to see racism behind the hysteria. The message is "Obama's coming for our children!" the standard cry against scary boogeymen in every culture. I mean, really, what besides Obama's race could make him so scary to these people? That he's a Marxist socialist fascist Nazi? I'd argue that the only reason those extreme epithets have taken hold goes back to reason No. 1: Our first black president is provoking some outsize and irrational reactions. You know what......Bush did a similar speech to school kids regarding no child left behind. Now a word from the right. On 9/11 Bush was reading to kids in a FLA school. No winger was concerned about the books he was reading. Its all winger BS and hypocrisy. One more time!
