What do Republicans do when they don't like the President or what he has to say to their children? They cover their children's ears by keeping them out of school. Participation in this boycott is truly the height of someone exposing their own stupidity. The President seeks to address the schools of the Nation next week reminding children of the importance of education and responsibility they have to do well in school. But because Republicans don't like the President, they plan on having their children remain home. This is not something you do when you disagree with the policies of a President. This is something you do when you fear the truth. It is akin to book-burning. Republican parents fear the truth of what the President is saying and they fear for their children hearing it. And because they can not find an intellectual way to refute anything the President might say to their children, they must dumb their children down by limiting their exposure to education.
These parents know that if their children hear the words from the President and come home to ask questions that they will be too stupid to give meaningful answers. These parents are so mentally dim that they don't realize they are passing up an opportunity to share their own viewpoint and perspective with their children and why it might be different from the President's. And that would be assuming the President was going to make this a political talk, which he isn't. It's a motivational talk given as a service to the children of this Nation to help inspire them to be all that they can be intellectually.
It's sad, really, that these people are so lacking in any sort of common sense because they live in fear of the truth. What's even sadder is that they are infecting their children with their own irrational fear and stupidity. In the long run, many of these children will rebel against the fear and stupidity of their parents and will wonder who their parents really are.
