Kudos for the school board for stepping in.

it’s hard to argue that the First Lady has been exemplary so far.


Whut?

It's like what Eric T. said on the Hannity show the other night - no matter what they personally thought of Melania or the donation itself a simple "Thank You" would have been appropriate. It costs nothing to be civil - but nooo, they had to grandstand their hate, like they were accepting books from Eva Braun.

Well... She was already a complete idiot. This just made it public.

It may be shocking for the good people of Springfield to fathom, but Dr. Suess did some pretty stunning (by contemporary standards) political cartoons during WWII. I wonder how these snowflakes - that would likely protest Mrs. Trump - would respond to seeing these pictures hung up all over town:

This retarded librarian is getting way too much mileage out of this.

If she can’t be fired, completely forget her.

Apparently the hoopla over statues was starting to die down, so the left had to invent some new non-issue to be outraged about.

Statues.
Dr. Seuss.

I can’t wait to see what they are going to protest next. Maybe marshmallows? They are far too white, ya know. Or sidewalks. They are an outrage against those who never learned to ride a bicycle.

Not they, she the stupid librarian. The school board told her it wasn’t her call to begin with.

Was MO too stupid to know that Dr. Suess is racist?

That was a rhetorical question.

Not buying the school board's reaction at face value - in that librarian's haste to take a dump on a Trump she also defaced a beloved series of children's literature,Theodor Geisel himself, as well as the estate that manages his legacy. That board had no choice but to make some kind of move to try and deflect the crap storm poised to rain down upon the entire school, so they threw little miss harpy under the bus as fast as they could. If she would have worded her missive differently and left out specific attacks against the books themselves I'm pretty certain they would have let her vitriol stand as presented and backed her up 110% on it.

Generally speaking, bathroom tissue is manufactured in standard white.

Where is the outrage?

Liz Phipps Soerio (that's her, left, in the Dr Seuss hat) is the librarian at affluent Cambridgeport school, Cambridge, Mass...the librarian that rejected Melania's Dr Seuss books as "racist."

This liberal sicko is apparently obsessed w/ virtue-signaling.....brainwashing the young privileged kids at Cambridgeport School that they're no patsy for conservatives.

============================================

FREEPER ACTION NEEDED:
Cambridgeport Elemantary School
89 Elm St
Cambridge, MA 02139
PHONE (617) 349-6587

TALKING POINTS--"You may not be aware of this," wrote librarian Soeiro as she rejected Melania Trump's gifts, "but Dr Seuss is a bit of a cliché, a tired and worn ambassador for children's literature. She also claimed that the illustrations are examples of “racist propaganda.”

Quick, somebody tell Michelle and Barack Obama...... who are frequently pictured reading Seuss books to kids.

Soerio will no doubt "bend a knee in obeisance" to the Obamas.
