Hmmmm....he's wearing RED.....

ME, ME, ME.....yet again.....

Again, from Teh Resistance, commenting on Ed Morrisey's examination of The One's message to the nation's captive audience of schoolchildren:

- 56 iterations of “I”
- 19 iterations of “school”
- 10 iterations of “education”
- 8 iterations of “responsibility”
- 7 iterations of “country”
- 5 iterations each of “parents”, “teachers”
- 3 iterations of “nation”

In other words, Barack Obama referenced himself more than school, education, responsibility, country/nation, parents, and teachers combined.

Lefties are saying, “Hey, Bush and Reagan made speeches to schoolchildren, so what’s the big deal.” This is the big deal: Reagan and Bush never cultivated the trappings of a fascist personality cult the way Obama has; the rallies in sports stadiums with thousands chanting party slogans, the children singing hymns to the dear leader, a fawning mass media made into a relentless propaganda machine for the regime. To anyone who isn’t a glassy-eyed cultist, all of this seems profoundly un-American. Obama has never told his followers to knock it off. Quite the contrary, he acts as though he feels entitled to it...

The funny part is that, after outcry, he deleted the homework assignment from his accompanying lesson plans that had the kids write about how they were going to help HIM. Not the country. HIM. Seems you can spray a turd with cologne, but it'll still be a damn turd.
