New York Post ^ | March 3, 202 | Emily Jacobs

A 2017 tweet from Vice President Kamala Harris has resurfaced mentioning Dr. Seuss by name and quoting him, four years before her own administration would strip his name from Read Across America Day.

Harris was a senator when she sent out the tweet, dated March 2, 2017, in which she wished the famed children’s book author a happy birthday.

“Happy birthday, #DrSeuss! ‘The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go,’” the California senator wrote at the time.

This is a perfect demonstration of how “stupid” things have gotten.

There is nothing wrong with Dr. Seuss. Nothing. This is another manufactured piece of stupidity. Laughable.

The only answer for this is pure mockery.

Dr. Jill never got a medical license, either. Neither did Dr. Smith! Danger! Danger!

Stupid trees? That’s species-ist. They were smart enough to hire a lawyer.

When granddaughter was looking for schools in San Diego area, we visited UCSD. The library there was quite proud of its association with Theodor Seuss Geisel and had a big sculpture outside. Has it been removed yet? As I recall UCSD was also home to the Che Cafe, so you know the campus is woke.

“She gives new meaning to ‘learn.’”

She found Dr. Seuss’ Kama Sutra?

I’ve done missionary.
I’ve done doggy style.
I’ve done 69,
but not in a great while.
There’s oral and anal,
Which is rather banal...

I guess her thinking has “evolved” on the matter?

I suspect Jack and Jill will be the next target. It does not accurately portray the trans community ergo it is trans bias therefore they are changing the name to “Jack to Jill”.

Lots of money to be made selling old Dr. Seuss books... I’ve got some bookcases here of children’s books from when the grandkids were young... Might be worth checking out.

We have two sets of them I think. One set was mine when I was a kid and its not in the best shape, but the other was a series of box sets that are practically new in the box.

Good idea.

Surprised no one has come out claiming Thing 1 and Thing 2 were black because of their problem behavior.

Being a Democrat means never having to say you’re sorry.
