Obama Speech to Students

You know what. Here's the thing. I have a job. I'm busy. So I don't have a lot of time to weigh in on this. However, our President is addressing our students about "about the need to work hard and stay in school". This quote was taken from the article "Obama speech to students sparks new controversy" By LIBBY QUAID and LINDA STEWART BALL Associated Press Writers.

So anyway, radio pundits, television bandits, and various other forms of nausea have declared this is a bad thing, and that it is politically motivated such that the president can further push his agenda. R U kidding me? REALLY. First of all our schools are so underfunded I doubt we even have the technology to show the freakin speech. Secondly the schools with the technology are most likely private institutions whose constituents lean towards a philosophy of the "Rich get Richer and the Poor get Poorer". Not name calling (Republican Party), I'm just saying.

I really wish I had more time to look at this, but frankly the people that stir this kind of stuff sicken me, so I'll go back to work. We live in a country that is about Freedom. Freedom of choice, religion, free speech, and other rights. After two consecutive elections which mocked, laughed at, and disparaged the very things this country stands for. Eight years in which our vice presidents own company made ungodly (yes I said ungodly. intentionally) amounts of money rebuilding that which (Haliburton) our President leveled (Iraq) as an odd misadventure on an otherwise logical expedition (Afganistan).

Did I get side tracked? My bad.

In closing, I think it would be nice if our President could serve as a role model and tell our kids to stay in school. Our last President addressed a graduating class at Yale and remarked, "You too can make C's and be President of the United States". Everyone laughed. That is to say everyone graduating from Yale that day. Hmmmmm.
