A Teachable Moment

Chock up another one for San Francisco and public education. First graders took a field trip to City Hall and witness first hand the best of San Francisco. They tossed rose petals on their teacher and her wife as they were married. The school's interim director called it a "teachable moment." It was infinitely better than learning math, science or how to read.

Yep, that's where we are headed. I should have taken the blue pill and washed it down with the Kool-Aid as did everyone who supports Obama. At least I would not see nor care where were are going. The problem is that once you take the red pill, you can't go back. Instead, you are forced to see the world for what is really is.


It used to be that you were judged by the company that you kept. Or as my parents would say, "if you sleep with dogs, you are going to get fleas." Using that analogy Mr. Obama needs a flea dip. He has been groomed for the show and now he even sports an American flag on his lapel. However, underneath that shiny, well-groomed coat, he still has fleas; lots of them. Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers, ACORN, et.al. But, no one seems to care that the future Commander-in-Chief could probably not qualify for a security clearance to walk the dogs on a military base. Yet, he will be the one to sit down with Iran (led by one of the former hostage takers), North Korea, and others whose primary goal is the elimination of freedom and the American way of life.

People all over the world who hate America love him. Why is that? Do they see him as the messiah like so many in this country who have been persuaded by his eloquent rhetoric? Could it be that they see him for who he really is, someone who hates America as much as they do? Do they see him as someone who wants to turn America into the socialist utopia that has eluded the European socialists? Maybe they see him as a citizen of the world, not of the United States. Perhaps they understand and embrace the Liberation Theology of Jeremiah Wright and the Marxism at its core.
What has he done to show that he deserves to be the President of the United States of America other than finally don the lapel pin? What has he done to show his love and commitment to our Nation, our Constitution and our way of life. What will Barrack Hussein Obama do if and when we are confronted with another attack on this country? We know what George W. Bush did and even what mistakes he made. We also know that it has not happened again. Would Barrack H. Obama take decisive action or would he sit down and have a nice chat with the terrorists and share their grievances with the Great Satan?


I am certainly not an avid supporter of John McCain. But, he has demonstrated his honor and commitment. I believe that McCain, The United States of America, and the world will lose in November. But, I also believe that sometimes you get the leaders that you deserve. If given the choice, pop the blue pill.
