That was 1100, by the way!!

Here's an example of what I am taLKING ABOUT:

"

Districts throughout the suburbs have been hit with complaints from parents who are worried about their children hearing a message from Obama that they won't have a chance to preview.

Farmington Public Schools is encouraging parents to pull them from class if they are uncomfortable with the speech.

Districts that have addressed the speech on their Web sites include Oxford Community Schools, Rochester Public Schools and Van Dyke Public Schools in Warren.

• DISCUSS: Do you think schools should show this speech?

The districts acknowledge that the message is intended to stress the importance of education and taking responsibility for learning. Some parents say the uproar is much ado about nothing.

"I think it's great that somebody as high up and respected in our country is addressing our kids," said Tom Bejma, father of two South River Elementary School students in Harrison Township.

U.S. Rep. Thaddeus McCotter, a Livonia Republican, and U.S. Rep. John Kline, R-Minn., are asking Obama to release the text of the speech in advance."

ALL WE KNOW ABOUT THIS PROPOSED SPEECH IS THAT IT WILL BE BY OBAMA, and that it will stress the importance of education and taking responsibility for learning. THere is NOP evidence there is anything in the speech, or anything about Obama, which would be counter-productive, demoralizing, confusing, or harmful in any way for kids to hear. So where's the beef?

The answer is, a flurry of artificially induced emotional abreaction is all the substance there is to this stupid flap. It's a granfalloon made of nothing, built of toxic shadows by toxic shadow-mongers,a big whiff of horsepucky. These brainless anthropoids are jumping in to stand in the way of learning and inspiration based on their own mindless inability to think clearly.

Sometimes, Sawz, I get the feeling you are similarly inclined.
