How did they do in their "debate" with you?
You know, when I was a young "skull full of mush" kid, I would never have attempted to debate adults on serious adult issues. Maybe these particular kids are more educated about current events than I was at their age, but it would be interesting to know if they knew who the Speaker of the House is, or their Congressman, or their Senators. Many of the kids I know are preoccupied with video games, MTV and the opposite sex....they are basically doing what kids do. Their positions on current events issues are usually nothing more than a parroting of what they are hearing from their parents around the dinner table....which is scary in itself.

One of the teeny peaceniks wanted to know where we get OUR news. She suspected it was all from the FOX News Channel.
Not me. I get all mine from CNN and MTV. LOL

They also talked a big deal about how the soldiers in Vietnam and returning veterans were all demoralized, depressed and using drugs, etc. I asked them if they knew how they got demoralized and had they ever heard of Jane Fonda or Walter Cronkite. They just couldn't figure out that they (todays peaceniks) are engaged in the exact same kind of traitorous demoralizing activities as Hanoi Jane, Cronkite & Co.

These kids have no earthly idea of what may be coming if we do not get control of these terrorists, in Iraq, Iran,Afghaniswhatever or any where else in the world where they are planning world domination at any cost.
These young folks have only their parents, the phoney news media and their peers to get information from. They do no research to find the truth unless it is given to them from a video game or tatoo parlor.
During our debate, they displayed a bad case of cranial constipation.
Pray for them they need it bad.

Missed you two last night.
I was thinking that we need to be prepared for those uneducated children on our next Freep. How about if we pull a Hannity on them and pull out pics to see if they can identify who the people are that run our country.
