(I posted this once before)
I had this argument with my 9 year old daughter after watching the first one. I had told her that if she didn’t pay any attention to politics it can happen here as it has recently in other places.
Her previous school had student drawings of Obama plastered on the office wall. I asked her if she had ever seen student pictures of Bush.
I went to Google Maps and zoomed into all the Mediterranean countries with a search of resorts. I had the photo feature turned on. Then I told her which countries were in wars and regime changes. We went from country to country panning the beautiful coastlines and the resorts were absolutely beautiful.
That was a year ago. She doesn’t stand up for Obama anymore. If she does, I’ll tell her what Obama, Ayers, Dorhn, Evans, Clinton and Kerry are doing to the world.

““You have a moral reason behind everything you do, Mom,” she said flatly.”
Sounds like the best lesson came through successfully.
The daughter’s quote reminds me of something Dr. James Kennedy stated back when the phrase, “You can’t legislate morality!” was so popular. He said, correctly, that the statement was absurd and that “...morality is the only thing you can legislate.” Whether we think we have moral reasons for everything we say/do in actuality, they do flow out of a moral (or immoral) mind set and world view.
