Ok,

I have never said I hate the guy...I have the most diametrically opposed views to "his" and his supporters agenda that would take years to itemize...Yet that is not what is happening here...

Remember the old addage about letting the camel get its nose under the tent flap??? Thats what we have here...

There are laws that structure the addressing of school kids by government officials...It is that path that was violated...But that is actually beside the point as well...

So, what we have here is the fact that this speech was yet another engineered approach to getting the nose under the tent flap and make the emotional protestors look like a bunch of goobs...

That speech was well delivered, he did not sway very far from it for the most part...But it was about as centrist and right leaning as they could get away with and everyone bought it hook, line and sinker...

The point is he didn't believe a single word of it...How can he???

Everywhere else he goes around speaking about how Americans needs to have their hands held at all times by the government, and this guy wants to expand on that in spades...But here he thinks this is where the future is??? Well sure, thats a bigtime duh,if I ever heard one...Most of those kids have been so indoctrinated already with all the distractions thrown at them by liberal/statist school boards and media/entertainment outlets...So sure in a few years they will be reminded of the time that the President of the United States came to talk directly to them to motivate and inspire them to set goals and achieve them thru hard work...That will be done to setup the elections in 2012...Who the heck has not done so on both sides of the political spectrum???

But hey, like I said, I don't have a single point of agreement with him and his ilk politically...Some here do, and that ok, why should I try to convert any of them...

It was at the leasst a great conservative leaning speech...It was historic, it was inspiring...

But I am not buying anything beyond the fact that it was a calculated political event to boost their approval numbers to the fact that everything else seems to be destroyed and or threatened with destruction when they even look in its direction...

But hey, if people want this guy and his ilk around and effectively dismantling the foundations of this country, its economy and its core values...Step right up and get your ration of good times...

Just my opinion...

Notice they waited way into last night before getting the "text" of the "speech" out to the public???

The link I found noted it was posted 9 hours ago...

And I honestly believe this is a total re-write...

But there is no way there is anything political in that thing...

Finally, someone had to be burning the midnight oil to get this done...(Yeah, this speech has no political undertones???)

An initial excerpt from Obama’s speech to the kiddos...

Some of you might not have those advantages. Maybe you don’t have adults in your life who give you the support that you need. Maybe someone in your family has lost their job, and there’s not enough money to go around. Maybe you live in a neighborhood where you don’t feel safe, or have friends who are pressuring you to do things you know aren’t right.

Well thats about as motivating as getting a colonoscapy thingy...

#1 I guess there’s always hope that affirmative action will take care of all those disadvantages he’s talking about...

#2 Not enough adults in your life??? Well we have a program for all ages to fix that...

#3 Lost your job??? Don’t worry, we’ll spread the wealth, remember when I told that rich “white” plumber guy that plan???

#4 If you don’t live in a safe nieghborhood??? We’ll come in in the next couple of years when the heat dies off of congress and pass “reasonable gun confiscation” nobody I know needs a Tec-9 for hunting!!!

#5 And stay out of gangs, but make sure you take a look and consider joining my Civilian Defense and Snitch Corp.

The real test here is going to be to watch how many school districts suffer for their snub...

My wife, as most know is a rookie teacher in Pasadena ISD...Her classroom (students and staff) are a direct recipient of federal stimulus money to have that classroom operate in the district...Without that direct bolus of money, my wife would probably be teaching somewhere else...She signed a letter to the fact that this is a federally subsidized classroom with stimulus money directed by President Obama to these kids...I have the signed copy in the gunsafe...

Now...Pasadena ISD just announced yesterday that they would not accomodate the President in this endeavor...They will tape the event and make it available to thos ethat wish to review it after the fact...

Lets watch and see the after effects of the snub, then we will see what this was really all about...Which we all kinda know anyway...

Some people are certainly convinced that history like this cannot possibly repeat itself...Oh no! No way!
