Just couldn't keep your mouth shut could ya' Shag? J/K

On a different note, I was highly entertained when a 3rd grader asked me today
who I was voting for. I told him, and he agreed with me that it was the better
candidate (and no, I'm not telling you guys because it's my business). I asked
him why he thought so, and he gave me some really good answers.
I don't know why we're just now getting around to educating our children about
politics but it's about damn time! At the same time, another kid asked ME why
we're at war. I've always been about the most non-political person you'd ever
meet. I didn't care about it. As I've gotten older and have a daughter of my
own I realize I *have* to care, because the future of America is in her hands.
Our kids have to be educated so when they're older they can understand and make
the right choices. I wish someone had bothered to fill me in on this stuff when
I was a kid. When I would ask my father (A very opinionated politic hound)
about the President (George Sr) or anything else government related I was told
"It's adult stuff, Honey. You wouldn't understand." Well I would have if
someone had explained it to me!

Sorry. Just an observation and small rant. No reply necessary.
