I can agree that by leaving the void in information, just like the lack of health-care details, the President leaves himself open to this. It's another troubling misstep, exposing what seems to be a lazy approach to the hell bent opposition. I think Obama keeps foolishly assuming that reason and facts (or as I like to call it, reality) will be enough to win over the opposition. If they too were reasonable and informed it might.

I would generally be fine with Bush or any president addressing the kids. As a reasoning adult I don't expect that the President will be trying to sway young children to anything radical. Just the usual Strive to be the best, pay attention to your teachers, you are the future kinda stuff.  Certainly I would never expect that he would take this opportunity to talk to kids about an issue as large and complex as Health-care for example.

I think the use of the term Indoctrination is a bit of overkill too. Its a scary commie word isn't it.

Anyway fools , crackpots, and the loud ignorant bullies still make for the best TV  apparently.
