President Barack Obama ... ... is slated to deliver a prime-time address on Tuesday night in which he'll lay out his plans for the American war in Afghanistan.
The address before the United States Military Academy at West Point on Tuesday night will not only be used to announce the immediate order to deploy roughly 30,000 more troops, but the administration will also use the occasion to convey how it intends to turn the fight over to the Kabul government, the New York Times reported.
But the administration may also face an unforeseen enemy as it lays out its long-awaited plans. And they are loud and they are legion: We're talking about preschoolers and their parents.
That's because ABC-TV was scheduled to present its annual screening of "A Charlie Brown Christmas" at 8 p.m. tomorrow night. And we don't know about you, but that show is pretty sacrosanct around our house and not to be trifled with lightly.
A call to the White House may be in order here. We hear it's pretty easy to get through these days ...

Um no. Even as a kid I found the Sesame Street childishly insipid. As an adult I certainly wouldn't call it entertainment.
In other words, you still don’t understand? How could you possibly think, given my many other posts on FR (easily checkable), and the content of my FR Home page, and my tag line, that I was pro-Obama? I hope you don’t go recklessly throwing around personal insults like that to people you meet on the street.
Exactly. Can’t believe I couldn’t come up with his name. Dudley... forgive me. LOL
Same here.
LOL, hey...
You’ll have to read the thread. Sorry.
I watched until the band started playing and then couldn’t watch further for the blood running from my eyes.
I actually think rap would be more entertaining..... ;<)

No wiki-ing allowed!
Are you joking, One?? This is the one Christmas cartoon which quotes from the Bible and actually puts the reason for Christmas as its moral. I am surprised you feel this way!
That’s almost as bad as a picture of kerry kissing his wife.
Neither one of them looks like they like what’s going on.
I believe ‘Steamboat Willy’ is just a film title. I think that’s considered to be Mickey piloting the little boat and having to fight it out with the guy who would soon be known as Pegleg Pete. Oscar predates all of this (and nobody watches his cartoons either anymore).
Obama is the love child of Lucy Van Pelt and the Great Pumpkin.
At least he wasn’t kissing Adam Lambert.
What I wouldn't give to see that out on DVD!
“Two out of two grinches are females. What’s up with that?”
Not a grinch. Just don’t like animated stuff. I do manage to watch every sappy, saccarine, predictable, lame Christmas movie on Hallmark and LMN — much to my husband’s disgust. :)
Since it's never gonna happen, it's all academic.
BTW, I heard that they are doing a remake of Sandford and Son, one of my all time favorite TV shows.
With Michelle starring as Aunt Esther!
: )
No bootleg. I purchased it legally, in US dollars, three times, a legally sold DVD (in Canada.)
There is no domestic edition available. I tried that first.
Whether customs was legally authorized to seize it, I have no idea.
I forgot the question.
