The bit I was cheesed with most was this (found in this article: http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5ib8qja0qqnnbZFsHF7kP6GV9XVfQD9AGCI3G1):

The White House revised the plans Wednesday to say students could "write letters to themselves about how they can achieve their short-term and long-term education goals."
"That was inartfully worded, and we corrected it," Higginbottom said.
I find that more and more I'm leaning not so much Right or Left, but Libertarian. I want my government to serve me, not the other way around and I want them to only do so enough that the roads work and the baddies are put in jail.
If the US President (any of them) have something to say to my child, he can say it to ME and I'll pass it on to James.
