JUST TURN ON THE FAUCET

The President can order California's water to flow but would rather encourage more talk?

UNCLE SAM AS PARENT

Americans are like unruly teenagers and need the U.S. government to act as Daddy. So says the nation's Secretary of Energy: http://blogs.wsj.com/environmentalcapital/2009/09/21/steven-chu-americans-are-like-teenage-kids-when-it-comes-to-energy/

THAR HE BLOWS... AGAIN

Jimmy Carter spews even more, this time with a twist: http://hotair.com/archives/2009/09/21/jimmy-carter-bush-may-have-been-behind-chavez-coup/
Mr. Carter, please... stop throwing America under every bus.

THE ACORN FALLS IN SAN DIEGO

NOT EVEN WORTH IT

I've blogged so many times about Jimmy Carter's dumb political remarks that I'm not surprised by his latest verbal mess, playing a whole deck of race cards. For previous adventures with Jimmy, search this blog for words like "Carter" and "pathetic".

NEVER ENOUGH?

What would JFK do? Anyone recall the Cuban missile crisis? And what point does our "concern" move up to "very concerned"?

MOVEON.ORG HAS TO BE SURPRISED

Bin Ladin still hates America and says Obama administration is like Bush/Cheney. And so many Obama fans thought electing him would cause tyrants to love us: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,549780,00.html

A TEACHABLE MOMENT

The updated Dept. of Education teacher guidelines for today's Obama speech include "who is President Obama addressing?" Huh? How stupid are America's kids? What's the correct answer they'll get? "Uh, us?" Here's actual text from the revised teacher's guide for The Speech:

"Guided Discussion:
· What resonated with you from President Obama’s speech? What lines/phrases do you remember?
· Who is President Obama addressing? How do you know? Describe his audience.
· We heard President Obama mention the importance of personal responsibility. In your life, who exemplifies this kind of personal responsibility? How? Give examples.
· How are we as individuals and as a class similar? Different?
· Suppose President Obama were to give another speech about being educationally successful. Who could he speak to next? Who should be his next audience? Why? What would he say?
· What are the three most important words in the speech? Rank them. What title would you give
"this speech? What’s the thesis?
· What is President Obama inspiring you to do? What is he challenging you to do?
· What do you believe are the challenges of your generation?
· How can you be a part of addressing these challenges?
Video Project:
· Teachers could encourage students to participate in the Department of Education’s “I Am What I Learn” video contest. On September 8th the Department will invite K-12 students to submit a video no longer than 2 min, explaining why education is important and how their education will help them achieve their dreams. Teachers are welcome to incorporate the same or a similar video project into an assignment. More details will be released via www.ed.gov.

WHAT HE SAYS...

...isn't as important as the underlying message: Love me. I smile, I speak well, I'm not Bush. Make sure Mom and Dad know you think I'm just fine. Here's the President's speech to K-12 kids today: http://www.whitehouse.gov/MediaResources/PreparedSchoolRemarks/

SENSE OF CRISIS

A report says that's what Mr. Obama needs to fast-track a healthcare takeover. Hmmm... as we've predicted, the threat of swine flu gives government an easy power-grab crisis opportunity:

ENOUGH CZARS ALREADY

To celebrate Labor Day, the President will announce the appointment of his new manufacturing guru: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/09/07/obama-manufacturing-adviser-labor-day-picnic/ This on a day when a new Gallup poll shows unions aren't necessarily helpful: http://michellemalkin.com/2009/09/07/big-labor-big-troubles/

HE'S GONE

Van Jones resigns from his White House gig. Experts ask "didn't anyone check his record before hiring him?" Of course. His philosophy is right in line with others, ala Rev. Wright. A prominent Obama aide said he was "a visionary". No surprise to this administration, just likely irritation that the public realized what Mr. Jones was all about.

THE TRUTHERS

The Green Czar, Van Jones, isn't just a potty mouth... he also has been linked to the bunch who think 9/11 was an inside job: http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2009/09/controversial-obama-administration-official-denies-being-part-of-911-truther-movement-apologizes-for.html

THEY BLINKED

So far. The Obama administration admits working with the Dept. of Education on teaching tools to "help students" appreciate the President's message on Tuesday... now they're altering the talking points: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/elections/2009/09/03/white-house-withdraws-students-help-obama/

WHEN HE SPEAKS

President Obama will address the nation's school children via video next week... the first time a US Prez has done such a thing. There's a reason: Education should be a LOCAL issue. What's he trying to do? Can parents opt out when it comes to their kids receiving "the Message". Here's what education czars are suggesting teachers do to help kids get the most from the speech:

SOMEONE DISAPPOINTED?

Experts say the H1N1 virus (aka "swine flu") may NOT mutate into a hideous super bug afterall: www.reuters.com/article/healthNews/idUSTRE58042220090901
Why do I get the feeling that some people are not happy about this, since a bigtime epidemic could give them more far-reaching power?
