Nice. Or not so nice. That is the question. If Saddam didn't write it, he sure could have. It hits the mark dead on.

Thanks for postimg this. :)
I can imagine that raising children who go to school in Ithaca is very difficult. John Derbyshire shares your pain:
Hey hey, ho ho... American schools, of course, are still sticking firmly to the Noble Savage myth. Conversation with Nellie Muriel (age 10) over the dinner table the other night. I was testing her knowledge of dates. 1492 drew a blank. JD: "Oh, come on, Nellie. 1492 Christopher Columbus remember?" NM: "Oh yeah. Columbus he was a bad guy." JD: "Say what? If he was a bad guy, how come we have a public holiday named after him?" NM: "Well, that's because he started out good. He discovered America. Fine. But then he got bad. He made people slaves." JD: "Honey, up to a couple hundred years ago, everybody had slaves. India, Africa, China, Europe, the Arabs we all had slaves. It wasn't unusual." NM: "Uh-uh. Columbus bad. He shouldn't have come here." JD: "But if he hadn't come here, there'd be nobody in America but Indians. And they had slaves. Also human sacrifice, perpetual warfare, famines, diseases and stuff." NM: "No. They were peaceful. They had democracy." JD: (Speechless.) This is a kid raised in a conservative household. We watch nothing but Fox TV, I swear.

I am continually de-programing my kids from the liberal social studies and revisionist history they are taught in public school.
Last year my 10 year old scored a direct hit on his Japanese teacher when she told the class "It was wrong for the US to have dropped the bomb on Japan". He spoke up and said "They should'nt have bombed us first". She didn't reply and changed the subject.

I can't wait until my litle "Bagdad Betty" asks me to drive her (in my SUV) to the mall this weekend and I tell little Miss "No Blood for Oil" to take the bus.

If it is any consolation, I was also a pinko when I was younger. Now I am a little to the right of Atilla the Hun...

Apparently, this sort of thing really toasts the left.
From today's "Darts and Laurels" column in the Ithaca Journal:
DART: From Monica Joyce Hamill of Ithaca. To the person who dropped a note underneath the antiwar sign in front of my home. The missive had a picture of Saddam Hussein and a handwritten note saying. "Thank you for supporting me." Your fatuous assumptions about me and my beliefs would be laughable if they weren't chilling.
Of course I do not support Saddam and I do support our troops. But I do not support this war. Protesting the war is not unpatriotic. You, too, enjoy our First Amendment right to free speech and I invite you to advertise your beliefs on your own property; I assure that I shall not drop a note under your sign labeling you as a cowardly, un-American, right-wing ignoramus.
And, before anyone asks, no, it wasn't me who put the note in her yard.

The Left will claim they opposed Saddam, they still think war was unnecessary to remove him. Of course they never get around to saying how they would have deposed the Iraqi dictator. Consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds.
