    Yeah, that tongue-in-cheek article isn't quite so funny now, is it? I never imagined it would actually happen. Parental rights are being eroded every day in little ways we never notice until a mom loses the right to feed her own child. Scary.

    When Michelle Obama's website is left up while Amber Alert is shut down (at least, until the public complaint was too much), the article takes on a life of its own.

    Oh but Jackie, didn't you see, her Twitter account was not going to be updated as often due to the shut down! She (or rather one of her many paid assistants) tweets to remind us to drink water! :roll:

    “The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people. As long as the government is perceived as working for the benefit of the children, the people will happily endure almost any curtailment of liberty and almost any deprivation.”

    Well, exactly.

    The repellant Adolf had it figured out.
