I know that for many of you, today is the first day of school. And for those of you in kindergarten, or starting middle or high school, it's your first day in a new school, so it's understandable if you're a little nervous. I imagine there are some seniors out there who are feeling pretty good right now, with just one more year to go. And no matter what grade you're in, some of you are probably wishing it were still summer, and you could've stayed in bed just a little longer this morning.
I know that feeling. When I was young, my family lived in Indonesia for a few years, and my mother didn't have the money to send me where all the American kids went to school. So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself, Monday through Friday - at 4:30 in the morning. Now I wasn't too happy about getting up that early. A lot of times, I'd fall asleep right there at the kitchen table. But whenever I'd complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and say, "This is no picnic for me either, buster."

I still want to see his college grades.
His mother called him Buster ?
I hope it wasn’t short for Buster Brown.
Ahmm - so you went to an Indonesian school where ONLY Indonesian citizens were allowed instead...and was registered as Barry Soetoro - religion: Islam. Father: Lolo Soetoro.
I didn't see anything in your speech about the mosque you attended, and the Koran lessons you took and how the Muslim evening call to prayer is the most beautiful sound on earth - and did you recite for them, in perfect accent as you do, that prayer?
And are you bosom buddies, the MSM, telling people that the speech isn't so much the problem as the curriculum lesson books that will now be given to the children which will include assignments like - how can I help OBAMA? Not how can I help myself get a good education, not how can I help my community/country, but OBAMA. - like in Dear Leader.
Or like in this: (live link next post. THIS is what parents are so very rightly concerned about.)

“extra lessons” - extra to what?
Well, gotta have it BEFORE school - Muslim school - and then those Koran lessons and Mosque after school = busy little fella, little Barry Soetoro, Indonesian citizen.
Obama seem to be trying to mythologize himself with this speech but overall it strikes me as a reasonable, mostly non-partisan speech. His listing of the world’s problems was a little slanted but in the end I’m pretty much OK with it.
It beats the hyperpartisan finger pointing, accusation and and attempts to demonize his enemies that we’ve so much of late.
The text doesn’t seem to correlate with the original teacher talking points—I wonder if this was version 2 or 3 or 4...?
I’d give him a B- on this assignment with a little extra credit for showing signs of improvement.
