		<description>From The Barack and Michele OBAMA Coloring Book:

&quot;This is Rahm.  Rahm is Barack&#039;s Chief of Staff.  Chief of Staff is a VERY important job.  Rahm has to see that things get done. Sometimes things don&#039;t get done the way they are supposed to and Rahm gets very angry.  That is why he is stabbing the table with a knife and shouting at people. Color Rahm angry red.&quot;

&quot;This is Bill.  He teaches English and used to be Barack and Michele&#039;s neighbor in Chicago.  Barack and Bill have been friends a very long time. Some people say he helped Barack write his books but that is something people who don&#039;t like Barack made up to be mean.  Bill is a very respected teacher.  Here he is visiting Venezuela to help the teachers.  Color Bill red too.  He&#039;s not angry like Rahm but he&#039;s red in a different way that you will learn about later in school.&quot;

&quot;This is Air Force One, the President&#039;s plane, flying over the Statue of Liberty in New York City.  People got very scared when this happened because it reminded them of something bad that happened before Barack was President, but there was really nothing to be scared about.  It was all a misunderstanding.&quot;</description>

		<description>I agree with Book and Danny. Conservatives won&#039;t get ahead on the info war by boycotting or setting up a division/line in the sand. Retreat is not the way to win a war. Aggressive attacks and relentless training, however, is.</description>

		<description>[...] I am not at all pleased that Obama is going to descend upon an impressionable and captive audience on September 8.  While I don&#8217;t expect him to do much more than mouth &#8220;lame&#8221; platitudes about education and service (meaning, of course, service to liberal causes not, God forbid, military service), I&#8217;m offended on principle to a highly partisan president speaking directly to all children without their parents there to mediate.

		<description>My recommendation is have the kids go to school and then explain to them what was going on. My kids grew up in Chicago - we taught them to be streetwise to what politicians here were up to at an early age. 

My guess is that it will totally backfire. Kids figure things out pretty fast but it will be harder if the conservative parents&#039; kids aren&#039;t there to help explain things.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m pulling my 8 yr old. 

BTW, the superintendent of our school sent out multiple emails heralding Obama&#039;s inauguration as historic and educational.  The kids did nothing that day except watch the swearing in, the speeches, and the breathless chatter of the msm. I asked him how many other inaugurations had been covered like that?  And would he do the same for our first Jewish president? Our first female? Our first Finnish-American?  No answer.</description>

&lt;I&gt;If I had a school age child, that child would be absent on 9/8/09&lt;/I&gt;

If I had a school age child, that child would be &lt;strong&gt;HOME SCHOOLED&lt;/strong&gt; starting 9/8/09.</description>

		<description>(Echoing SADIE:)

Children, your education takes place outside of the classroom, too. That&#039;s why when you go home tonight I want you to help your parents appreciate the good education I am trying to bring you. 

To do that, you have to learn how much your parents know about me. So, look for this:

---What emotions are on your father&#039;s face when you mention my name? Your mother&#039;s?

---If you don&#039;t have a father, or have two fathers or two mothers, what are the looks on your parent/parents/caregivers/guardians/probation officers&#039; faces when he/she/they hear my name?

---How would you describe those emotions? Happy? Sad? Angry? If it&#039;s sad or angry, make a note to tell your teacher. It isn&#039;t good for grown-ups to not like the President as much as you children like me. This is a great chance for you to help us identify grumpy or depressed adults so I can make them stop!

---In case of emergency, acquaint yourself with your parent/guadian/caregiver&#039;s important household records. Look on his/her/their computer for files that say &quot;Taxes,&quot; &quot;Investments,&quot; &quot;Tax Shelters,&quot; &quot;Political Contributions,&quot; &quot;GOP,&quot; &quot;National Rifle Association,&quot; &quot;Rush Limbaugh&quot; or &quot;Health Savings Accounts.&quot; Bring those to your teacher for backup and safekeeping if there&#039;s ever an emergency in your neighborhood, such as a riot by old white people. 

Well, my time is up. Back to readin&#039; and writin&#039;! But before I go, I&#039;d like to give you all a souvenir: a President Obama T-shirt. It not only has our national colors, red, white and blue, I&#039;ve made sure the background color is brown to reflect what our nation&#039;s skin color will be by 2050.

Bye, bye!</description>
