For those like me who missed the President's address to our school kids:

realclearpolitics.com

He is a role model for all our kids. Abandoned by his father, proudly raised by his mother, he woke up everyday before sunrise to study. It was just not his devotion to studies but it was also the devotion and pride of his mother, which many of our parents do not have and hence they did not want their kids to listen to the address.

They are worried about the deficits and its impact to the next generation!!

I am proud of my President, his intellect, his honesty and his talents such as oratory, etc. It is not a question of left or right ideology. It is issue between being American where we support the will of the majority in our President or we constantly pray for his failure and death from natural causes.

We denounced the main stream Muslims for their failure to rebuff and denounce Osama and his gang. NOw we see a repeat of similar behavior in the conservative community where no conservative has openly denounced the tactics of Limbaugh and the religious leader who wish and pray for Obama's failure and even demise from this Earth. Re these the same folks who fight for a life to be born instead of being aborted and say nothing about someone praying for the President to die? Their behavior seems asinine isn't it? And to keep quiet is even worse.

contemplated we should force abortions and mass sterilization is a clever little weasel around "advocated". I don't know who exactly is supposed to be fooled by that particular phraseology. Further comment edited for moderator's sake.

>>Sorry, grade F, you failed to read the actually words of my post. I clearly said "contemplated" and you changed the language to "advocating".<<

GS -

From what I read of the original text, the authors were doing a survey of various methods of population control that had been proposed. That's not even the same as contemplation.
