Not entirely sure why, but my Gmail clipbar keeps showing an ad for a book called “Why Mommy is a Democrat” with the tagline “The book George Bush doesn’t want your kids to read!”
Now, you won’t get a lot of complaints about knocking Dubya out of me, but a couple of thoughts:
1. Really? Does Dubya even know this book exists?
2. This implies there are books that Dubya wants your kids to read… which is a highly suspect proposition in the first place.
Also… let kids be kids, Mmmmkay? Teach kids to Do The Right Thing, and let them decide for themselves what political affiliation (if any) they’re going to take. Maybe brainwashing junior to be a Dem (or GOPer) isn’t quite the right way to go, y’know?
For those who don’t know me, I’m firmly on the left side of the fence, but I vote for the candidate I think will be best for the country/state/county/city — not for the little R or D next to the person’s name.
To heck with “Why Mommy is a Democrat,” get the kid some Dr. Seuss and comic books and it’ll work out much better.
