‘A Concerned 8-Year-Old Citizen’ Writes Brutal Letter to Michelle Obama
The Weekly Standard ^ | 4/21/15 | VICTORINO MATUS

Posted on 04/21/2015 9:59:49 AM PDT by Nachum

A friend sends along an email attachment—a handwritten letter by his 8-year-old son, Peter. It’s addressed to First Lady Michelle Obama. “It all started because he saw something about school lunches [and] how ketchup is bad for you, and that Michelle Obama wants to limit the amount of ketchup” in schools, my friend explained. When the boy’s mother reminded him he attends a private school, making the ketchup rationing a nonissue, “He said something about wanting to ‘give a voice to the voiceless.’”

But ketchup is actually the least of the boy’s concerns, as he then continues onto foreign policy, the crisis in the Middle East, and the need for boots on the ground. (“He also disipionted millons of Americans by not bombing Syria.”) In addition, Peter recommends that the president urge the United Nations to send peacekeepers to Ukraine.

On the lighter side, the departure of Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau seems to be noted, as Peter points out, “I also think your husband needs to work on his speeches.”

“We found it on his desk,” said his father. “He started it in October, but did not finish it until a couple weeks ago. He said he was ‘too angry’ to go on.” (Peter does, however, conclude his letter by asking the first lady, “Is the White House comfortable?”)

You can read the entire letter below.

This kid is doing what all of us have a need to do. Tell the President where he or she is going wrong, in our eyes.

“and a little child shall lead them”

Thank You, Peter.

The kid is in need of some serious indoctrination. His parents better get him to a public school or face an investigation by child protection services.

Im sure obama is putting this kid on his list of right wing terrorists as we speak.

His parents should be prepared for the CPS to kick down their door and persecute them for child abuse at any moment now.

From the mouths of non-indoctrinated babes.

You just know the social worker is warming up her car. Why she’s never seen a more clear-cut case of child abuse.

That kid should be in school where he belongs, reading books like “I Have Two Mommies”, and ....

The year is 2085 and the news is about the man that has been audited every year since he was 18. He holds the record for longest number of years of continuous audits.

Oh brother (or should it be sister)...

Thanks for the mention.

And this for little innocent kids..., CHILD ABUSE!

These kids should join hands and scream “MIND RAPE, we need help!” and repeat until the teachers are fired.

Yes and no, we should definitely be able to us more than 1 ketchup packet; but we should stay out of the Middle East. There is no solution to that problem, sending troops will only make it worse, costing us lives and billions.
