Young people like Jazmin Perez, from Roma, Texas. Jazmin didn’t speak
English when she first started school. Hardly anyone in her hometown
went to college, and neither of her parents had gone either. But she
worked hard, earned good grades, got a scholarship to Brown University,
and is now in graduate school, studying public health, on her way to
being Dr. Jazmin Perez."
The above paragraph is from the speech that President Obama will be giving to school children kicking off the 2009 school year. The photo is of an emotional Jazmine Perez watching the President mention her in his speech.
The story is about a woman with the less than American name of, Jazmin Perez. A name that sends shivers up Republican spines even worse than the name Sonia Sotomayor did earlier this Summer. Even stupid crackers now that "Jazmin" is a name often used by… Well you know… So just the name itself adds "Black" to "Wetback". And the girl didn’t even speak English! And is from a Texas border town! Sometimes I wonder if our President has ever been south of Springfield.
This is why Republican parents are keeping their kids out of school today. To keep them from hearing about non English speaking (unAmerican) immigrants (illegal or here only because of liberal loopholes) and of course the real crux of the matter, this girl is just another example of someone less than White who is a whole lot smarter than the parents who are keeping their kids out of school today.
We have to look on the bright side of this. A day missed in school for the children of these Right-wing loons (who vote Republican) helps their children fail in the long run. Sad for the innocent children? Not too sad as these kids are sure to follow in their parents footsteps of ignorance, bigotry and hate.
But more importantly, the remaining children in our public schools can take note of who stayed home or were shuttled off to little wingnut bigot rooms in the basement and let their parents know their names when they get home.
This will help all reasonable parents in America know who to keep their kids away from outside the classroom. After all, who wants their kids visiting trailer parks where the curtains are made from confederate flags, where loaded weapons are laying around on the kitchen table and of course that dangerous meth lab out back.
No, there is no mistake with the graphic. Ron Paul is the person most responsible for all this wingnut crap these days.
