I think the only children being brainwashed are the ones listening to and believing the torrents of drivel being propagated by the few. ---

I just read the President’s remarks at the White House website. I’m pretty sure I got the same speech from my father. In fact, I’m pretty sure just about every child in America has already heard this from someone. The moonbats are just sounding crazier and crazier. ---

Well, can I use an [interrogation droid](http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Interrogation_droid)? Vader did use one of those. And do I get double points if I can get Glenn Beck to claim that Obama was born on Dantooine? ---

Aside to **Asterion** : Did you look further down the page on that wiki? How those guys say “cite?” is “ **I find your lack of sources disturbing.** ”! I am absolutely stealing that. ---

Greer is now backtracking and saying his problem with the speech was that Obama was taking so much time off from working on the economy to write a speech and lesson plans. That sounds very familiar, like someone in this thread. Could Greer be a doper? ---

Could Greer be a doper? Not sure of the timeline but they showed a clip of Greer on the 11pm news saying what I paraphrased. I’m in Florida (don’t hold it against me) so when the local bigwig wingnuts talk they usually get airtime. ---

I might be ridiculed for this, but I really think Obama is doing America a grave misjustice with this speech. When I was a kid, we got the “don’t be a fool, stay in school” speech, too. And because of that, I have one thing to say to Barrack: Mr. President, I know Mr. T. I’ve worked with Mr. T. You, sir, are no Mr. T. ---

> [@davidm](#): > > Absolutely, totally predictable. I would have bet money someone would say that. Hey, I’ll claim my post [#290](http://boardstest.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=11529062&postcount=290) was serious if it would get me a piece of the action. (If anyone was still concerned, note the third word in. Say it out loud, but don’t say it three times in front of a mirror in a dark room. The shriveled and long-neglected ghost of Glen Beck’s integrity will grab you and pull you into the land of lost souls.) I think the Drudge headline was calculated to go from OUTRAGE at the concept to marginalization. ---

I would think the radicals would be embarassed when the playback of Bush Sr. asked the kids to write to him,in almost the same words as Obama used; one woman when shown the tape said,Well, I don’t want anyone telling my kid what to do. If Obama told them to honor their parents some of the radicals would consider that blasphmey, accusing him of acting like God. They are more to be pitied than censored!
