Obama's Halloween

Okay, so Obama and the lefties are trying to indoctrinate children. The Big O's website has a section devoted to children and how they should talk to parents and grandparents, trying to convince them to vote for Big O. By now, you've all seen the videos of the sweet, unassuming children lined up by adults and taught to sing a song of Obama like they wrote it on the spur of the moment, while the adults, cameramen and producers hide like this was some off-the-cuff home video. Or perhaps you've seen the video of the Obama Youth, dressed in fatigues and chanting His praises.

So, what do you do if a child approaches you and asks why Big O should not be elected? They're too innocent to understand socialism and how they are being manipulated, so how do you educate them?

Tell them this story.

You go out on Halloween. You walk as far as you can, as quickly as you can. You go to as many houses as you can, collecting a full bag of candy. You don't stop to rest, you don't eat anything. You just go to house after house, filling up your bag. Your brother goes out, but only visits two houses then goes home and plays Playstation. Your sister doesn't even dress up, sitting in front of the TV watching an iCarly marathon.

Now, when you get home, we are going to take your bag from you before you get any candy. We are taking your candy and splitting it between you, your brother and your sister. They get a big chunk of your bag of candy.

Of course the child will recognize this as patently unfair, and will most undoubtedly wail about the prospect of this seizure of property and redistribution of wealth. After their outburst, simply look them in the eye and tell them, "this is what Obama wants to do with the money Daddy and Mommy make at our jobs. He wants to take it away and give it to people who have not earned that money."

A leftie may have problems with that scenario, but even a child can see the wrongness of redistribution and socialism.
