Is it wrong to point out someone else's immorality? Is it OK for us to complain about the Dixie Chicks and urge people to stop buying their music? I say it is.

My favorite Curtis Sliwa action was when he urged his listeners to buy pirated copies of Fahrenheit 911.

These commentators all need to get a life.

What a ridiculous analogy. Perhaps the parents are trying to teach about giving. Taking care of yourself lessons may come later.

I disagree with the dismissive tone of the headline here on HotAir. It is a lemonade stand, yes. But Terry Savage is wholly right to despise these idiot girls and their Mexican nanny. These kids were learning the WRONG message and their parents should be excoriated for it.

If that comment were merely posted to inflame responses, it worked. What's wrong here, IMO, is to refer to kids as "idiots". Also, to make a wholly unsupportable statement about the nanny's nationality (later admitted to as being unknown).

Do we really have to lower our discourse in such a way?. That's what's wrong about this.

Savage was unhappy with the girl's faux generosity. "That's not the spirit of giving. You can only really give when you give something you own." Savage wrote, "They're giving away their parents' things -- the lemonade, cups, candy. It's not theirs to give."

Why assume the parents didn't give it to them to give it away? In any case it certainly isn't Terry Savage's.

MYOB.

Oh good grief! Much ado about nothing!
