The teacher's explanation was slightly acceptable. Had she not wanted to be political, she could have had the kids write his daughters and not him. Whether they wrote to him or his kids, some White House lackey will probably be writing any response the class gets anyway, with an automatic pen signature from Bambi. A real keepsake.

I told my daughter that Obama is never in the White House anyway. I also was going to ask her teacher if they wrote goodbye letter to President Bush. Anyway she is a nice teacher so I will let this all go for now. Thank god my older child goes to a private high school. It's worth being bankrupt for four years.

When she was in kindergarten, our grand daughter wrote to Laura Bush. She was making a pie chart of favorite Thanksgiving pies for a math project and asked what was the President’s favoirite. She received a huge packet from the WH with recipes, pictures and a lovely letter signed by Laura Bush. The letter thanked her father for his service. The family were living in Germany at the time as her father was stationed there. The letter is treasured by our grand daughter, who is now 11.
