The speech to the nation’s children might please Obama’s ego, but this really seems like another goofy brainstormed item off of a young enthusiastic staffer’s list. —Because it overlooks the fact that this move pushes ordinary parents throughout the country who might otherwise be politically inert into actively resisting Obama and the Dem. party by extension. Those parents will talk to each other about taking a “sick day” for their children. (And you think most children will be grief-struck at the sudden holiday?) Those families will look around and see they are not alone or powerless. Obama is inadvertently provoking another mass unorganized opposition to appear like that which emerged during the August townhall meetings. This is not wise politically for the Democrat party’s future, but oh well.
Good idea.
Spread the word about the 'sick' day for students.

You would think parents would get a clue and remove their children permanently!
Honestly,....The communfascist indoctrination is now at a level that it would be better for a child to get **NO** schooling whatsoever than have his child’s mind and SOUL corrupted by this bilge! ( I **seriously** mean it!)
And....Parents have been indoctrinated into believing that they are incapable of educating their own children! Surely they can do a far better job as parents ( and together as neighbors, friends, and relatives) than the government school indoctrinators.
( Yes, I am shouting!)
