I can't believe the fuss about President Obama's speech to school children! People claim he's 'indoctrinating' children (we all know about the 'mind control vibes' broadcasts send out), and tell parents to take their children out of school that day because children "shouldn't be required" to listen to the president. What message does THAT send to children? To me, to refuse to even let your children listen is total disrespect to the office of the President (and disrespectful of the children; not letting them form their own opinions).
Reagan and Bush Sr. both spoke nation-wide to schools. Reagan's was apparently very political, laced with how he cut taxes, etc. Was there this kind of protest over his speech (I was out of school and didn't have kids yet, so I'm clueless)? What has this country come to?
