I got down to this paragraph:

“You’ll need the knowledge and problem-solving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS, and to develop new energy technologies and protect our environment. You’ll need the insights and critical thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free.”

Then I stopped. He was even doing fairly well up to here.

Regardless, I’ll still be exempting my kids.

Yeah I got the same sour taste from his example of AIDS being the great disease of our time.

Its not like curing Cancer or Heart Disease is any kind of big deal, right?

I mean, didn’t his OWN Mother die of Cancer?

But of course, AIDS is THAT ONE disease that is officially sanctioned by the Politically Correct Intellectuals on the Left as THE GREAT SCOURGE on the WORLD.

You zero’d in on the exact same spot as me, I actually found most of the text to be acceptable except for this:

“You’ll need the knowledge and problem-solving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS, and to develop new energy technologies and protect our environment. You’ll need the insights and critical thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free.”

Take that part out, and have someone besides the snake oil salesman n chief deliver it and it would be ok.

Keep the kids home. Liberal nonsense, just like we said it would be.

Except for those evil white cops in Cambridge.

Good grief... if Zero had integrity this would mean something. But the way he has soiled himself, the teleprompter has more character.
