Kids give Obama poor grade

They use to sing him songs. They wrote him letters. They embraced change and hope because liberals, who can only argue with emotion not ideas, love to manipulate the children.
Well, the children aren't necessarily cool with being manipulated. Give it enough time, even kids know Mommy and Daddy are working harder and making less.

Via TIME Magazine:
TIME FOR KIDS and KidsHealth wanted to know how things are going for you. To find out, we went straight to the source. We asked 1,000 kids, ages 9 to 13, about life at home, at school and in the U.S. What we learned surprised us, impressed us and reminded us that being a kid isn't always easy.

National Issues

Our country's leaders work to improve the U.S. and the world. How are they doing? Here are the grades kids gave them. Kids also graded President Barack Obama on his first year in office.

Obama's Grades:

* A: 19%
* B: 30%
* C: 24%
* D: 10%
* F: 16%

Mr. President, the children aren't agreeing with the B+ rating you gave yourself. In fact, 50% gave you a grade lower, with a good majority flunking you entirely. Yikes. Time to contact the NEA and amp up the indoctrination.
Kids' Hopes and Dreams

Most kids say they will choose a job based on how much they will enjoy it. But if kids could have one wish granted, many would ask for money. Why? "So my mom wouldn't have to work so much," one girl said. Here are the jobs and wishes at the top of kids' lists.

What Kids Wish For:

* Health: 7%
* Happiness: 7%
* Travel: 6%
* Fame: 5%
* Long life: 5%
* Money: 27%
* Possessions: 15%
* Better World: 8%
* Other: 20%
They don't seem to be embracing the whole "spread the wealth around" idea. Obama needs to give another speech. Then, maybe Jesse Dylan could direct another music video with Will.i.am and Scarlett Johansson singing the words of Obama's speech with a monolithic worshiping tone in a sterile, haunting black-and-white video.
That should take care of it. Then children won't care if their parents are strained, stressed, and working all the time instead of being with their family.
Just a speech. That's all they want.
"I don't want my family or any other family to have to worry about unemployment."
