Have the Wingnuts Over Played their Hand?


Now I'm talking about President Obama's education speech that seems to be causing such a stir on the right. I'm not going to go into the hypocrisy of their complaint, but rather the fact that they making such a loud noise about it.

I would venture to say that had they just shut up and said nothing half the kids who saw it would have yawned their way through it. No offense to President Obama, but rather just commenting on the attention span of far to many students.

However now that this stink has been raised so has their curiosity. So, I wonder how many kids who don't get to see it the classroom will head to the school's computer, the one at home or some other place just to find out what their parents or school board is forbidding them to see.

I find this analogous to winger trying to ban a book. It usually drives up sales.
