Could this be any more soppy and mawkish? So they're trying to make this their 9/11 meets Space Shuttle Challenger disaster?

[goodnesswins]

GO AWAY....You are NOT MOM in CHIEF...."We can teach them the value of tolerance -- the practice of assuming the best, rather than the worst, about those around us..."...YEAH, that really worked with the killer kid here, didn't it, Meechelle

[Krodg]

If they send the letter to the left first, I might believe they mean it....not!

[Vendome]

Dats johst stooopid.

[Domangart]

More likely they should learn about males becoming adults and becoming barking mad. They let this one run all over. Still I knew a med ret Marine who talked back and forth to no one and he was harmless.

[definitelynotaliberal]

I’m surprised at her audacity. She listened to Jeremiah Wright for years and she’s qualified to tell people to instruct their children to assume the best about people, not the worst? Hypocrisy, your name is Michelle!

[Apple Pan Dowdy]

We can teach them that there are paranoid schizophrenics out there who WILL kill, then when they are old enough we can teach them to use a gun for their own protection from evil ones.

[LittleBillyInfidel]

Yeah, Michele... We already had this talk with our kids, way back when, to explain the “beer summit”.

[Recovering_Democrat]

...use the event to teach them value of tolerance.

For instance, I wonder if we should teach our children to tell those who oppose us they are our "enemies" who have to "sit in the back" or we'll have "hand to hand combat"...

[Candor7]

Cloying political correctenss comes off her lips like slick snake venom, she wants to replace religious values with it.

Typical leftist pap.

[PilotDave]

Taught mine that the next time someone has a boot on your throat or is kicking your ass, be prepared with a concealed weapon.
Another good lesson was if your gonna go for a head shot, use a good quality hollow point bullet. Not that cheap target stuff...

Is that what you had in mind Michelle?

[ViLaLuz]

What the heck does tolerance have to do with anything in this situation? That harridan knows best?

[jersey117]

I don’t need a bunch of baby killing advocates and sodomy supporters telling me to teach my children to be “tolerant” of that behavior.

[PghBaldy]

So she is implying conservatives did it? I guess she didn’t hear Hussein’s campaign speech.

[StonyBurk]

Yep this parent learned that if anyone was complicit in the shooting it would be the boys parents who probably knew there was serious mental problems but were probably too afraid to be parents. (look at the letter they sent-suggests what I say)
As a Parent I learned from this shooting that if anyone was
complicit it was system that allowed a very troubled young pathological murderer to be rejected by the Army for drug use/ kicked out of college because he made other students fear him. As a Parent I cannot fault the AM Talk Radio or the Right wing. For evidence suggests he was extreme left wing. I cannot fault the weapons maker nor seller because he should have been locked in a nut farm long before he ever purchased the weapon he used. As a parent I very much blame a despotic system of governance that has promoted divisions and political favor at the expense of good goverment all in the name of progressive Democratic Party control.And I didn’t need the expensive first Lady to tell me any of that.

[Venturer]

Amen Brother.

[hal ogen]

mooch-chelle is the ultimate welfare queen...and she has the nerve to tell anyone anything? moocher...go on another vacation or something. No one cares what you think or say about anything.

[jersey117]

That would be sister : )

[PghBaldy]

We can teach them the value of tolerance – the practice of assuming the best, rather than the worst, about those around us. We can teach them to give others the benefit of the doubt, particularly those with whom they disagree. She is saying conservatives did it. Why else bring up tolerance, when that, or the lack of it, had NOTHING to do with this crime? She is saying Sarah did it, and anyone who disagrees with Obama and Democrats.

[6SJ7]

We can explain to them that although we might not always agree with those who represent us, anyone who enters public life does so because they love their country and want to serve it, Michelle wrote.

Yuh. Riiight. Lets' face it. Most politicians are on an ego trip at best and gravitate to holding power over others at worst.
