CONSERVATIVE BEDTIME STORIES FOR CONSERVATIVE CHILDREN

ITEM [via BoingBoing]: From the author of the bestselling Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed! comes the sequel Help! Mom! Radicals Are Ruining My Country!

Featuring Nancy Pelosi as the Evil Queen.



Follow Tommy and Lou as they struggle to keep their swing set business afloat despite 246 czars, onerous regulations and sky-high taxes in these troubling times.  Will Tommy and Lou finally decide to join the other kids on the corner in standing up for freedom or will they continue to fear being vilified by the press and demeaned by Marxus Obundus (“the One”)?

Cute.

I don’t particularly have a problem with this, as long as we understand each other on one point: conservatives don’t get to complain about liberals indoctrinating children with political propaganda anymore.

Also, I agree with the comments at BoingBoing that as children’s books go, the art design is really crappy.

Youth of today,

This is dF

When I first started spending time with Cadi's family, I heard one of her brothers telling a bastardized version of Horton Hatches an Egg to the kids with Horton as a Republican having to take care of Mazie's, the Democrat's, eggs.

And that went on for awhile...until one Christmas when I pointed out that Scrooge was a Republican before the Ghosts' visit while Tiny Tim's family were Dems.

I haven't had to hear that perversion of Dr. Seuss since. :)
