You know, this was brilliant of Obama. All this fear-mongering about a speech to children, a speech that everyone’s going ‘oh, wait, that was pretty good.’ about… and there’s no lead time to whip up a frenzy about his speech tomorrow. He gets to give the _big_ one free and clear. ---

What’s this I hear about a President’s Physical Fitness test in schools now? Now Obama wants to train an army of physically-fit youth to enforce his Marxist utopia? I’ll go alert the local news. Maybe I can get on the teevee. ---
