The talk

Posted by Len on Tuesday, September 8th, 2009 at 11:56 am CT in Politics

Yesterday you read it. Today you watched and listened to it. You did watch and listen, didn’t you? Well, just in case you didn’t…

(The transcript was posted yesterday.)

    before she does any other homework, my child will be watching this speech.

    I didn’t watch or listen. Any thing having to do with government schools (e.g. Mao T’se-tung’s re-education camps) and I tune it out.

    @ Krystal:
    That’s good, Krystal. Did your daughter not have the opportunity to watch the speech at school?

    @ Rob:
    That’s sad, Rob. What is even sadder is that you believe you live in China. (You don’t, do you?)

    Hey, thanks for posting this. I probably wouldn’t have gone out of my way to watch it (consdiering that I’m a South African living in England) but I am glad that I did watch it. Cheers.

    They also weren’t showing them in our school district. Damn it!

    I wonder if I’m the only one thinking how canny a policy it might be to let those fearmongers and wolf-cryers look stupid and let them discredit themselves.
