Is it, or should it be, controversial that the president wants to encourage school children to study hard, listen to their teachers, and get a good education? Amongst the loonies on the Right it is controversial and more: It is evidence of a grand design aimed at subverting parental rights, undermining the Republic, and installing Satan as Grand Vizier.
Here is a woman who is in tears at the prospect of the president addressing her children.
You can always tell a World Net Daily reader.
The great irony, of course, is that this president is the exemplar for the importance of education and, with scarcely 30% of the nation’s black children raised in 2-parent homes, he is the right man to deliver the message. If the Right had anything on offer but malice they would be grateful that, unlike the past half-dozen presidents, this one takes education seriously, recognizes that the United States is falling behind the rest of the world, and means to do something about it.
