“Big Bottom” is scared because six hours of SpongeBob SquarePants is likely to produce more literacy and independent thinking that six years of public school.

In fact, if we banned public school and mandated Looney Toons, SpongeBob and Rocky and Bullwinkle we’d end up with a more informed electorate.

Check the crime stats in the major welfare cities during the blackout and compare to the weeks before and after.

Michelle Obama, go and screw yourself. Put your head in the toilet and start flushing it.

Let's all hoola hoop! ROFL

This is all fine and dandy moochelle, but what about the children who cannot go out and play due to illness or some other circumstance?

I do not own a TV, I do not have children, I do not like this forced blackout. I am grateful that there are still other stations available for those who need them.

We already did all that she is suggesting.

But it is nice to have internet and tv cable on the homebound days.

Moochelle keeps issuing these edicts to kids.

I hope they all realize that she's not a dictator - she just wants to be one.

Might not be a smart move by Nickelodeon. What if all these kids realize that playing outside is more fun that staring at the boob tube? Their audience might not come back after 3 hours!

“Meanwhile, “iCarly” poses this question to teen and tween fans on the Nick show’s website: What’s the best way to spend this Saturday?”

I’ve got some suggestions for fun activities for the kids:

Play Cowboys & Indians
Go shoot cans with your Daisy Rifle
Play Ding, Dong, Ditch
Go skitching, or hop on the back of an Ice Cream Truck and see how long you can hang on until the driver notices and chases you off.
For boys: Pick a girl that you like and pull her pigtails
For girls: Pick a boy that you like and kick him in the shin
Put pennies on the railroad tracks and wait for the train to flatten em
Play Smear the Queer
Make a clubhouse and put up a sign that says “No Boys”/”No Girls”/”No Homers” allowed
Make rubber band guns out of clothes pins and the cardboard tubes from old coat hangers, and see if it’s really true that “You’ll put your eye out”
Find a suitable mound and play “King of the Hill”
Burn some ants with a magnifying glass
Flood your mother’s garden with the hose to make “mud pies”
Blow up your action figures with fireworks to make “casualties”
Haul your mattress out to the backyard to start a wrestling league
Find some scissors and give your dolls a haircut

When I was a kid we watched Popeye, Mighty Mouse and some other cartoons along with Sky King and Roy Rogers on many Saturday mornings. We also had to do housework. That didn't mean we didn't go out and play. We played a whole lot, had amazing imaginations and got tons of exercise and fresh air. Along with with making up all kinds of imaginative games we went swimming almost everyday during the summer, roller skated, went on bike rides, played sports games such as neighborhood baseball and football, tennis, volleyball, ping pong, badminton etc. We ice skated and made massive snowmen and snow forts in the winter. And just think, we did all of this without any input at all from the likes of M Obama.

It seems for dems they always go to extremes and love to dictate to others how to live their lives like they are the great intelligentsia and the rest of us are dodos. In truth they probably are druggies and do not know much at all concerning what is good vs. bad and often try to turn good into bad and bad into good but to cover up for their total lack they like to push on everyone else their idea of what is right so that they can convince themselves and us that they are the great morality dispensers. They lack discernment but love to think that they know everything. And to beat all they also love to tell us not to shove our morality down their throats. They really are quite predictable and completely nauseating.

It’s Saturday morning, time for my youngest kids to get up and watch cartoons - probably for the first time this year. Michelle Obama’s interference in our lives deserves that honor.

I have no doubt Michelle watches cartoons with her kids now. She has a bad habit of lecturing us on everything she does. This is almost as laughable as Michele telling us to watch what we eat while she and her husband pig out and eat a lot of ice cream.

I’m wondering if this will affect Dim kids more than Pubbie kids - - I’ve read many times that polls taken on weekends are usually more pro-Dim as Pubbies are out doing things together as a family. That said, since when does someone in the WH have the right to block network programming? Can you imagine what would have happend if Laura Bush had tried this and said spend the time reading with your kids? What’s next - Fox needs to black out Hannity or O’Reilly so that families will turn off the TV and eat a healthy dinner together.

My 8 y.o. nephew normally just has soccer game on Saturday mornings; however, today is extra busy for his family - - after his game he has a Taekwondo lesson and then testing for his high blue belt. He deserves a rest after that - - Guess if he can’t watch Sponge Bob when he gets home, he’ll have to watch a Disney video or play X-Box. His mom and dad limit his computer/TV/video game time, just like I’m sure many other parents do - - we don’t need Michelle Ma Belle to coordinate with the networks to do a programming blackout; or, for that matter tell us what he should eat.

Maybe she ought to coordinate a blackout of MTV whilst 0bama is giving his speech at the Univ of Wisconsin - - he might be able to finally fill all the seats at one of his events.

The Nik channels are blocked at our house anyway. Just ignoring my disgust at the situation at hand for a moment...did anyone think of the timing? Noon to 3PM...the hottest and sunniest time of day. Usually in late Sept I guess that wouldn’t be a problem, but surely Michelle has noticed that up here in NoVA summer has been having one last attempt at hanging on...it was over 90 degrees the last few days! And clouds? Nope, not really! My kids have go out and play time every evening, after the temp gets below 80. Noon to 3PM? I don’t think so.

Now that I’ve gotten that out...who the heck does she think she is?! Making it look to the kids like she has power over the TV?! Kinda makes me wonder how many kids just change the channel to Disney...LOL
