George Bush goes to a primary school to talk about the war. After his talk he offers question time. One little boy puts up his hand and George asks him what his name is.
"Billy."
"And what is your question, Billy?"
"I have 3 questions. First, why did the USA invade Iraq without the support of the UN? Second, why are you President when Al Gore got more votes? And third, whatever happened to Osama Bin Laden?" Just then the bell rings for recess. George Bush informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess.
When they resume George says, "OK, where were we? Oh that's right -- question time. Who has a question?" Another little boy puts up his hand. George points him out and asks him what his name is.
"Steve."
"And what is your question, Steve?"
"I have 5 questions. First, why did the USA invade Iraq without the support of the UN? Second, why are you President when Al Gore got more votes? Third, whatever happened to Osama Bin Laden? Fourth, why did the recess bell go 20 minutes early? And fifth, what
the ****** happened to Billy?"

I guess you probably know the answers to little Billy's questions?
1. We didn't
2. Not the votes that have named our president for over 200 years he didn't.
3. Osama is lying low and causing little harm. He'll surface eventually and we'll get him.
BTW, little Billy's in Iowa at the cannibal convention. ;)

Why are left wing teachers or (even worse) left wing fanatic teachers programming their kids to ask such questions?
While I understand the above is a joke, not too long ago a few articles were coming out of Berkely (yea I know) where left wing fanatic parents were doiung just that and even forcing their 5-8 year old kids to carry slogans at anti usa rallies.

What's wrong with teaching kids to ask questions, as long as they are also taught to listen to the answers?

Well depends on the context. I feel that the scenario above poses programmed questions adults spoonfed to the hypothetical kids based on the adult's political preferences as opposed to equipping kids with the faciltes to ask their own questions. And that kind of stuff does happend, and me coming from a communist country where they did that stuff in school makes me not like it. :)

As long as the politicians enter the class rooms of the children, then anything goes imho...

I cant belive that you dont understand that that pic works vice versa too!!
:confused:

Grunherz I thought u where more afraid of communism?
The picture u've posted shows Himmler???
So if ur concern is fashism I 'm on ur side (in case of communism I'm on ur side too) but is it really necessary to show ur concern in every thread?

There is no vice versa, its the same thing - I dont like brainwashing. I posted the picture to give Duedel context. I figure he is perhaps left leaning so his biases might downplay the damage of brainwashing if a case is shown from a left wing perspective, but considering he is German I think this may be effective considering that nations history and damage caused by nazi brainwashing of children.

I can agree with answers #2 and #3, but #1 is subject to debate.
